All Things Livebait

[georgieboy]

hey guys

been visiting the site for 6months so decided to take the plunge and join this awesome online community, you guys are tops

im a 19 year old uni student with a newfound passion for fishing and was just after some choice advice about livebait. I usually fish the hawkesbury around the bridges either landbased or in a hire boat........hope to have more than 6hp to work with soon though!!!!

was just wondering where i should be collecting yakkas from havent reli seen much reliable activity at all, seems like the only reliable thing i can manage is plenty of catfish!!!!

Also when rigging them from land or boat should i be weighing them down to the bottom or letting them swim relatively freely, on a couple of occasions my livies hav suddenly become snagged and iv lost my setup, is this because i have weighed them down too much and so snagging becomes more commonplace or have they swum into a snag because they arent weighted to the bottom sufficently?

any advice would be much appreciated

cheers
