Rob’s Blue Marlin… Rob’s Blue Marlin…After the last couple of day’s out and checking the SST charts it was apparent that little had changed.

Fishing December 2022 How different can two years be? Though I can’t compare fishing December 2022 with December 2021 due to Covid and associated lockdowns. Below is a report from December 2020 to show what should be. In general so far this year the offshore has been pretty well non-descript. I did my first … Continue reading Fishing December 2022...

Yellowfin. Well it did turn out to be a good day for Yellowfin. Not so much weatherwise though. We had a shot early for Kingfish but it must have been too early for them.

Fishing Port Stephens… Fishing Port Stephens was really tough this season.

Also along with the lack of bait the juvenile Black Marlin had not shown up in their normal numbers. Offshore … Continue reading Ambition R...
