This page will be used for tracking surface feeding behaviour of Giant Trevally in the Seaway and Broadwater. It is my hope that by the end of this year the data will show a pattern we can use to more accurately predict Giant Trevally feeding behaviour. The more details you guys share the more accurate the info.
