Had an awesome trip out to coles reef over the weekend.

Got a nice swag of quality trout and red throat but the high light was live baiting spanish mackeral.

Threw a small slug on the reef edge and got a dozen livies of various types. Anchored on a good drop off and sent the livey back down.

Rarley would it last 30secs without being smashed.

Sharks nailed a few aswell as a few unstopables.

Where'd you pick up the long line hooks?

I found 5 long line clips, leaders and hooks set up the back of the Pioneer R. I

took them into work to show a friend of mine and he notified the fisheries. Next

thing the fishos show up at work and i tell them the story. They wanted to keep

them all but i wanted the hooks, so we cut the hooks off all but 1. I kept the 4

hooks and the last intact line is now on display with the fisheries, when they

have there little booth set up at shows and such.

Great fun.
Spanish are a legendary fish, especially when they get big, they start to take on the 'evil' appeal.
Thanks for sharing.
The bait, Oceanic Queenfish?
