I fished Queenscliff for the first time about a month ago with no GPS data and just drifted over the shallow areas of Lonsdale bight after not doing any good in the deep with the other 60 or so boats. After about 30 min of drifting with no squid one of my two rods which I'd left in the rod holder buckled over and I was on. Five nice squid later I went and picked a friend from Queenscliff pier and went back to where I hooked the first squid which I marked as soon as I hooked that first squid. We got another 8 using that mark as a guide. That same spot worked for me the next time I went out but since then it seems to be irrelevant. I'm catching them all over the place. Aok is right-they move around and GPS is great on the day if their schooling but on subsequent trips you just start all over again.
Very quiet on Sat arvo. Went out for a couple of hours B4 dark with my brother in law. He got one small one and I got one small and one 2kg specimen.
Let me know if you still want a mark and I'll post it.
By the way I'm hoping to get into some snapper this year over your way so if you have any good marks they would be much appreciated.
Cheers
