hooknose,

Thanks for those little tips, i will give them ago next time...... I am struggling to find any yabby flats in the top end of the bay ( north of St Helena) where i have been fishing the last couple of times.

Yep i was getting tired of the weed by then end of it.

In regards to colour of the SX 40 the gold colour was the only one that i could get the other day, and i didn't mind as i used to have good success with gold in the freshwater rivers of FNQ chasing jungle perch, bass and grunters. The water in some of the creeks was stained so the lure blended in with the colour, a bit different to a perfectly clear water of the bay on thursday....

LIVE AND LEARN I GUESS

cheers

John
