our two biggest from up here are 58 and 63..ive caught tailor on the rocks locally that went18lb don't have a length but have seen them at coffs 20lb plus
-
havnt tried fg yet ..I use Albright 12 turns down then 4 back up over top never had failure..leader length depends on what and where you are fishing for..
-
we got a dozen squid sun arvo drifting in front of murrays jetty ..small yamashitas are the go..flatties are just startin to move shallower ..enjoy your dinner date lol
-
we fish out of my mates pride Bahia mar they are 20 ft but are one of the best handling and riding I have ever fished out of we run a 160hp Volvo diesel duoprop and its fuel efficient and has heaps of grunt..another to lookout for is the Bertram 23 with diesel...I wouldn't touch petrol in this size unless they are fourstroke outboards..
-
4 and 5 inch soft plastics in natural colours or nuclear chicken squid viscious are the go on flatties ..we got fish up to 75 last weekend and lost a 95 cm beside the boat...rick

Beginner Shark Fishing Advive
rickmarlin62 replied to tparko.fishing's topic in Gamefishing Tackle and Techniques
depends on your bait size but iwould use 200/250 lb trace with multi strand at the front joined by ball bearing swivel crimped with thimbles....burley bags and assorted add ons are a recipe for tangles and bustoffs ...kiss..keep it simple stu...learn how to cut baits open and hide the hooks then sew back together with just the points exposed...most guys working of the beach don't use floats...good luck -
