  2. Double uni knot works for me. But you cant have your knot run through the guides. Fg knot if you want ya knot to run thru your guides on your fishing rod.

    either suggestions in thread will work. Personal preference.

  3. I did have a fish last Sunday morning from 6pm - 10am on the spin gear for donuts on the northern beaches. Spun from the rocks. The last 2 sessions haven't had any luck on the Pelagics . That time of year with the transition of water i guess.

    The action looks like it is further north.

  4. Hi everyone,

    just wondering  if anyone is still getting any pelagics still ? Usually fish off the rocks and landbase. Weather is getting colder not sure if there still hanging around? Preferred  method casting metals.

  5. That gear should be plenty for now, to see if your going to stick to spinning off the rocks. Its the perfect time to try it out as from all the reports i am reading, bonito, frigate, mac tuna are about. Probably go with 20lb braid and 20 fluro carbon leader. Get a little more distance with using lighter line

    Thanks a lot for the advice there Paddy, much appreciated! I would agree with your assessment there. Looking at the trebles on these lures I really just can't imagine how you could get enough hook in them to keep the fish on firm save for lip-hooking them.

    When payday comes around I'll get over to the toy store and pick up some new hooks. And replacements for all the lures I lost yesterday.

    @big Neil Cheers for the kind words mate! Haha! When fishing I do normally dress like a dag (when bait-fishing especially)!

    Thanks to others for the advice on hooks and landing the fish. Always helpful and appreciated!

     

    I use 20 gram raiders or 15 gram bishops metal lure, have no problem hooking salmon, tailor or bonito on the standard treble hooks. Get the odd one jump off if hooks arent set. Standard trebles will do until you encounter bigger fish.
