Spangled Emperor

Sunset Over the Sand Dunes


The last three days have been great fishing for me. I seem to have figured out how to catch the much prized Spangled Emperor found here. Sunday I caught 3 (and a nice golden trevally), Monday 2 and Tuesday another two. Russ has caught quite a few 38/9 cm ones but they have to go back as the minimum size is 41cm. He's getting quite frustrated and has rigged up a bigger, better rod and reel for todays challenge.

We are very happy with our fishing success as no one gives you much info on where the fish are (naturally). We spotted some bottom that should suit the Spangled Emperors but were suprised to catch such big fish consistently in 1.8 metres of water, so close to shore.

Our neighbours have enjoyed the fish too as we've given two feeds of fish to each recently.
