Picked up my PB jack on the Gold Coast yesterday morning. Pretty happy, went 45cm and was caught on 4lb Fireline with 6lb leader and a River2Sea Rover 75. Sweet fight.

Nice one mate! Awesome effort on 6 pound!

Photo's can be deceptive so ill ask, was he caught on the flats? Or is there structure out of the shot?

Thanks, yeah there were some rocks out of the shot .In fact he had me bricked for a bit, so I free spooled him out.

Haha thanks the free spool technique is a ripper in saving bricked fish, alot of people trying and muscle them out of the snag and just get busted off. Got a shot of him next to a 40cm ruler but its not accurate, plenty of time still this month to break 54cm... .. Got 10 days up the sunny coast soon.

Thanks mate, once you get your first jack they will start coming more often. Took me ages to get my first. My tip is use quality lures around 6 - 9cm. Fish surface very early morning around rocks, and in the day use divers and plastics. All about putting time in early or late hours if your land based. Boat based and bait is a different story though.
