Glamour weather and glassed out seas, we had to get out and check out the Islands off Hinchinbrook. Paul had never caught Tuna before so we set out on a mission to hunt them down. We cruised around the Hinchinbrook Islands searching for the busting schools of Tuna. It was great fun in perfect conditions and after a bit of looking around we managed to get a few to the boat. Flyfishing for Mac Tuna around the Hinchinbrook Islands is great fun and requires a speedy cast putting the fly in front of fast moving fish, they pull a heap of backing and don't give up easily. White Clousers getting the bites.
During the right tide we searched the flats for Tuskies. Paul had quite a few shots but didn't come tight on a big Blue Tractor. The water clarity was amazing.
Then more Mac Tuna the next day.
