| Sandy bay - Dolphin Magic ! Launched our boat last Wednesday for the season - bloody freezing but flat calm and then the sun came out. Planned a few hours out to mark the route across the infamous sandbanks off Exmouth beaches - whilst plotting the route we were surrounded by 9 beautiful dolphins !! Now I reckon people go miles abroad for such a site but to have them swimming in 3 pods in about 30 feet of water they were amazing going under the boat - what an amazing site ! That was followed by three drifts over the Boma wreck 8 miles out with no interest before we shot back in for a try for the early makeral - nothing doing out off Sandy bay but quite suprisingly they were around in numbers just off the earlier sandbanks in 20 feet of water - so half a dozen came home for tea - what a nice early suprise - and they are great to catch !! All in all a great day out and fngers crossed we have a better summer than last year. Tommy __________________ So near yet so far - Wembley 2008 - Zideered Right Up ! |

| Nice one Tommy. Glad to hear the Mackerel are starting to show. Did you manage to get any photos of the Dolphins? I tried when I was in India. I swear the Dolphins were having a laugh with me. If I pointed my camera to one side of the boat, they would jump on the other..... Great animals though. |

| Re: Sandy bay - Dolphin Magic ! No bloomin photos as we were in shock - one charter boat on its way out did stop and as the dolphins swam towards them all the anglers got their cameras out - needless to say another one came from behind and under the boat and splashed every single one of them !!! Great view though and superb just off the beaches !! __________________ So near yet so far - Wembley 2008 - Zideered Right Up ! |

Good to know the mackie are back, I'd heard of a few, but not close enough to get at from the shore yet! __________________ People that listen to radio's and throw eggs around for a living, really shouldn't comment on what constitutes hard work;-) |
