Chasing mackies tomorrow

 So I'm lucky enough to have tomorrow off and im dying to get into some metro mackies. Spent heaps of time trolling the 3 mile the last few years for 0 mackies. So with tomorrow's forecast looking great I'm thinking its maybe worth heading out further or around rotto maybe.

So has anyone got any hot tips at the moment or general areas to try, these elusive metro mackies are getting the better of me!

I did just see Alfreds post about what he seen this arvo, so maybe out deeper isn't the key?!

any thoughts or opinions welcome

cheers Paul

 Or has anyone got any links to good sea surface temps where you can actually see what's happening in the perth area? The ones I can find only have the whole of west oz which don't really help to pick what area I should troll in
