“Had a fantastic day out on Danesa K this morning, had a fantastic day out with True blue. Came down early in the morning from Mt tamborine for a 6am start. After a quick safety briefing from the skipper we were underway and soon heading out of the seaway. After arriving at the first reef after 25 minutes of travel we were raring to go. Deckhand Troy gave us the low down on how to bait up and use the gear. As soon as the baits hit the bottom the fish started biting and it wasn’t long before fish came aboard, as they came up the crew measured them to check they were legal size. Some went back to grow bigger, some were gutted and put in the ice box. We caught Snapper, Jewfish, rock cod, tailor and one lucky guy on the boat got a massive Cobia that weighed 17 kilograms. We fished several different spots with varied results. In between spots the crew dropped the roll down curtains to deflect the sea spray and keep us all warm and dry on a chilly day out. At the end of the day the boys bagged all of our fish to take home to eat. The boat was Tidy and my wife was very pleased to find it had a clean onboard toilet. Cant wait to go again and will recommend to friends and family. Thanks for great day out.”
