Autumn Fishing has always been the best time of year for Game Fishing out of Sydney. Generally speaking Autumn Fishing is when we encounter the larger fish of the species rather than numbers.

September Yellowfin… Went out last Thursday with Chuck his wife and son on board from New York State chasing September Yellowfin. I was not very optimistic about the day.
