The word on the water is that there are some mighty big fish off Townsville. It seems that the big blacks have moved south of Cairns. A small fleet of boats have followed them out to the sea mounts off Cairns, and then down to McDermont Banks off Flinders Reef. There has been talk of a tuna longliner about 50nm off Myrmidon with BIG MARLIN jumping on his hooks. Peter 'Mutta' Mamino spent a week on LITTLE AUDREY (76' warren,http://www.littleaudrey.com.au/ ) and tagged a big one around 800+lb. Capt Dean Beach on CASTILLE 3 (47 O'Brien, http://www.castillecharters.com/) tagged one around 850lb a got a bite from a bigger one. Captain Luke Fallon on KEKOA (47' O'Brien, http://www.kekoa.com.au/) who has spent the last couple of days off Myrmidon also caught a 2 small fish around 200lb.
With the weather looking good & the fishing reports sounding red hot, I'm sure a few Club boats will heading out following the Xmas Party on Friday Night.
