[polylureosis]

Thanks to Scotty Beefs and Shayned for the ideas - However with the forecast for Moreton bay as good as it gets I thought I would try some offshore/inshore work. (will try the Roys Road area another day - Looks good)

Had been thinking about seeing what spots in the bay were accessable by Yak.

Spent about 6 hours on the water (Bum somewhat sore), 25kms round trip leaving from Wellington Point: included circumnavigating St Helena Island.

Fishing was average: 2 x cod, 2 x Grinner, 1x snapper (all small and released). Had a few hits from Tailor and Bream and saw tuna busting up a few times (just out of casting range).

Absuolutey stunning day the wind picked up around mid morning but was still under 15 knots by the time I got back.

Saw a heaps of small sharks on the NE flats - They take off quick if you spook them. Heaps of turtles and something large and grey (I am hoping it was a dugong).

I think the Bream fishos would love the N.E of the island. Saw plenty and some sizeable models amongst them.

Next time Straddie!! or Morteon!!

Geez Poly,
Sounds like a good day, I was looking out from Sandgate about 8am and the bay looked great.
25km round trip, I'm afraid I couldn't manage that at this stage.
Keep the reports coming.

Amazing looking place and a decent paddle too, a Dugong eh?
Im glad the marine life is thriving and your giving it the special attention it deserves, well done

Great peddle you did today Poly and seeing the dugong.

If thinking of going across the paddock later as you said, and willing to go a distance, maybe consider off Patts Point at north end of Macleay Island [launching at Victoria Point] for reds and spotties in season, and down into Perulpa Bay on the eastern side of the same point.

The flats further east of here towards the Pelican Banks can produce whiting and flathead also
