    Well this came up quickly. Going there in 3 weeks. Quick question for those who have fished the Swains: is it worth throwing some squid jigs / bait prongs in? Are squid a frequent catch out on the reefs? Mostly looking at it for fresh bait purposes.

    Hey guys bit of a bump will GT be hard to come by that time of year? is it even worth taking a heavy popping rod?

    Unreal read I’m heading up there on the 28th of October next year with big cat also. Great to hear the vessel performed in the slop, and even better to hear you fished well! I wasn’t really going to bother with soft plastics up there until I read your couple of threads, but I’ll be definitely making sure I take a good selection now.

    Awesome advice mate

    Yeah for sure, I’m taking an 8 foot / 14000 outfit for GT as well as a medium casting outfit, a medium bait rig and some various other rods.

    Awesome, sounds like it should be an excellent trip then with some prized table fish on offer!
  28. Kimtown
    I mean that combo would mostly be for trolling for game Pelagics anyway
  29. Kimtown
    Why though? hard angle to fight if going under the boat?

    Hey guys Heading to Swains reef 27th of October 2022. Just doing as much research as I can now. I’m wondering, is this a decent guide on what species to expect there for that time of year? https://www.fishingcairns.com.au/fishing-calendar/ I know it’s Cairns but I figure the species should be somewhat similar? if not, is there another guide / almanac out there I could read? also, what are peoples thoughts on a Daiwa demonblood 5’6 - 6-8 paired with a Talica 12 2spd with 65lbs braid for trolling for the game species there… dog tooth, spaniards, sail fish, small marlin etc if anyone can give me any more valuable knowledge of the Swains that’d be awesome. Heading there with bigcatreality, looking forward to it.

    To be honest, it was too much for me to read entirely lol. I did brief over it quickly and he did make it seem very nice, but he makes a lot of the products he reviews seem really nice too.
