    Rapala X Rap Magnum 20 / 30 Info

    in Fishing Chat

    Posted

    Hi All 

    I have a few questions on the Rapala X Rap Magnum 20 or 30 lures  as I haven't used lures before.

    1. What lb line should I use?

    2. Are they better for casting or trolling?

    3. Is it better to tie directly to line or use a snap or connect line to split rings.

    Float Rig for Rock Fishing

    Hi All

    Was using a float rig for rock fishing.I wasn't able to cast as far as I wanted .The rig was a float connected to lead, then to a swivel and hook . I thought its because the bait and the lead went in different directions . Is it ok to have the lead on top of the hook so that the weight allows more casting distance ? Or is  this  bad for rock fishing.

    Sorry for asking noob questions and thanks for any info

    Great reels for chasing jews. I have two 4500b's, my brother has five 4500b's (3 of which are brand new in their boxes still), and I also have a couple of 4000's thunnus's

    Which is better a shimano baitrunner LC or a thunnus . Does drag matter a lot cause LC have more drag

    Hi Fishraiders

    Wanted to know your thought's on a baitrunner reel if you have already used one or own one . Is it better than a normal reel ? Cant the same baitrunner feature be enabled on a normal reel  by reducing drag ? Is it advantageous to have a baitrunner while rock fishing or surf fishing.

    Can we use spinning rod and reel from different companies

    Thanks

    Circle Hooks - Info needed

    in Fishing Chat

    HI 

    I was using a size 4 circle hook for Bream /Whiting and couldn't catch any fish . I had better luck with  J hook. I was told  for circle hooks we don't need to set the hook . Is that true ? Also found it easier to put bait on the J hook.

    Would like to know if we need to set the hook for circle hooks or can we just cast and leave it until we get a bite.

    Thanks

    Hi All

     Would like some assistance /info .I started fishing a couple of months back,still waiting to catch my first fish . I don't own a boat and prefer to fish from a land spot like a wharf . I have tried to fish around the skate park at the entrance .Was told to use dead prawn /chicken / salted pilchards for bait ,which didn't turn out too good . Would like to know if anyone else does fish around that area . What do you use for bait also what size hooks do you use or a better spot

     

    Thanks
