Trailer boat fishing Hervey Bay again!

Another fishing trip to Hervey Bay, this time with my two boys Jack and Sam, onboard our Cruise Craft 635EXHT Salt Shaker IV. We use Wathumba Creek on the north west coast of Fraser Island as our anchorage again and explore the adjacent waters of Platypus Bay, all the way north to Rooney Point. Due to the tides, we spend a little more time in the creek than usual, and the boys encounter a wide range of light tackle species. While out in the bay we find tuna and mackerel, but the little Black Marlin are again, very scarce this season! This place is definitely one of my favorite trailer boat destinations. But it’s not without its challenges, like getting the tides to line up with the weather and everyone’s busy calendar! I hope this video is as enjoyable as it is educational for those planning on visiting this beautiful and precious part of the world by trailer boat! Thanks for watching! Cheers
