Nice one mate. They not bad lures. Andrew used to send me sone few years ago to try. Till this day i have caught my biggest snapper which went 99cm on the xl 8 inch. Get some 7inch like the zman jerk shads and it should be gun for offshore anglers

Big jew i reckon. We being getting a couple at harries lately n i know guys who constantly get them there. These are fish all over a meter. They love big herring. I being smoked by 1 few trips ago too. The snapper at harries dont fight too dirty.

Product: Laser Lures Type: Metal lure Colour Range: Extensive range Preferred Colour Thus Far: Chrome silver 35grams Price: 6.50 Quality: Good, Dont even have to change hooks. Action: Darts through the water spins straight when ripped back Experience: I love using lasers. They are by far my favourite slugs for jigging beacons or casting at mackerel schools in the bay or even at the GC. I have 100s of schoolies, spotties, and a few spanish and wahoo on them. Also caught alot of tuna on the 25 grams. They arevery realistic and dont break the bank them purchasing. Pictures: Optional. I dont normally take photos with mackerel as once we get into a school we try to get our bag first before posing for photos haha

Product: Zman StreakZ Type: Jerk Shad Colour Range: Extensive range Preferred Colour Thus Far: Bubblegum and Pearl White Price: $9.95 Quality: More Durable than any plastic out there Action: Depends on how it is fished. Can be used for pelagics or fished for snappe by jerked off bottom Experience: My favourite plastic out of my collection has to be the Zman StreakZ range. I have caught countless fish on these plastics. Jewies, Threadies, Snapper, Spangled emperor, all types of tuna, Mackerel, trevelly, cod, cobia, kingfish and the list goes on. The 5' and 3' are my favourite for pelagics These plastics will basically outfish most plastics of the same profile out there and thats coming from me. They are my go too plastics for pelegacis and even reefies now Pictures: Normally dont take photos of fish with lure its mouth but i found some

Recommendations on cheap heavy popping gear
Shane69 replied to regulated's topic in Tackle, Rods and Reels
Should have bought my twin power 8000pg BJ. I bought it for that purpose but it was too heavy for me. Sold it for dirt cheap. Im going to get another combo soon. Thinking of a Stella 5000 with 200 Jig tcurve Paul from IFISH uses something something similar. My mate has same set up and it feels nice. Its not too heavy either. Good for popping and jigging. Hey Dom are you talking about the Saltiga Maverik 6500 with monstor mesh. That was my mate Imy old setup. I think you bought it from him.that was a killer setup. He sold it because he needed money to buy bigger boat. We fish together all the time lol. He's looking to buy a 6meter plus plate boat now. I was telling him other day once he gets the boat wel follow Dom out to deep tempest and Barwon banks. Thats when he told me he knew you. -
Very good write up mate It gave me a few tips too. Longtails are fun n frustrating to chase. I have had all my luck various colours of 14 gram slugs with upgraded single decoy jigging hook. Marias have being most productive for me. They look like small white bait. You need decent gear for lontails as they dont know when to stop. I personally have burnt about 4-5 carbonated drags playing with these. If you fishing metals, you need a High spining reel. You have better chance of landing one. I use a stradic fj 5000 for most pelagics in the bay n its not overly expensive. I fish bait too but i wouldnt bother for chasing tuna in the bay. More fun chasing schools with metal slugs. For those who do want to use bait. Go grab a few livies and sit at the beacons. Good chance of catching them n also bycatches like cobia n mackerel. Get in early on a calm weather weekend because every man and his dog is there tryna catch his trophey fish. Its a car park. This is just my 2 cents n i have had most of my luck fishing this way. I cant wait for this. Its going to be fun. Itl be good meet new faces. Same as Andrew if you see a black center console working on a school of tuna with a black guy in it stay away lol go find your own school :evil:. Tuna get scared easily. As the event comes closer i will be looking for a deckie to take with me.
