Headed off early Saturday morning for a fish. Baits where in the water for about 20 minutes before we finally got a hit. Solid fish around 10kg. Things went quiet for a about and hour till a bait went screaming off. Another good fish around 10kg. Ended up with 3 spanish mackerel for the morning and a large schoolie...

Cheers,

Great stuff, mate, especially for the bay!!!!

WHat sort of wire do you run on your trace (if at all), and do you use gangs or single hooks?

Great report.
