diver1 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Believe it or not, this is the first time I've seen a pic of a drummer! Whats the cunjee thats used to catch them? hey mate, cunjei is found on the low rocks at low tide, its a small mound bout half the size of a tennis ball and if u tread on em they squirt. you cut the top off and get ya fingers in there and pull out the meat, anyway thats my pathetic attempt at describeing them, maybe some1 could post a pic of one? Top pigs Diver...how long are those beasts? hey rob, didnt measure them this time but they were good solid fish!! the 2 drummer fed me n the missus and the 2 kids. awesome eating to.

diver1 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Hey diver , you givin up on the lake flatties.? no way mate, it was just that i only had a few hours spare and drummer fishing is quick and easy with minimal gear compared to putting the boat in for a cple of hours and then home for a hour of washing it and packen it up, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
