dpac Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 (edited) Just come in from fishing the Parra River - Caught two live bait, taylor and yakka......... about 7.00pm riged them up. they died while i was fishing for more. So sliced them up 'butterfly' and sent them out.... I reeled them in ; about 8:00 - the taylor just had the head left...... - the yakka was gone. I was shocked. So what am i doin wrong.... When they are dead i put a hook through the mouth, and a hook through the tail and acking like a stinger. (7/0 Hooks, no sinker) Still ended up catching alot of bream and a nice flathead. (while trying to catch live bait) So it wasn't all bad. Cheers Dave Edited February 20, 2008 by dpac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Looks like youve got it down pat with the stinger to ensure a good hookup. My bet is that what ate the taylor and yakka leaving the head wouldve been pickers. Consider a reasonably lighter trace? and a sinker wouldnt hurt when chasing jewies coz they like feeding off the bottom. Good luck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
