heyas

was testing bait vs lure, and i do pretty well usually on gulps and hbs while trolling of my hobie.

not much luck on blades so far so i stick to what works

testing this at towra ,

my mate used nipper

2 whiting about mid 40's

2 trev

1 bream

1 flounder

while i was using gulps only managed 2 trev and lost something that ran about 50m

jew or ray :(

i usually outfish bait but in winter lures go down the drain lol

I've been using Strike Pro Cyber Vibe lately and they work quite well. Gotten myself quite a few flatheads,trevalley and bream... so yeah I think this is my favourite lure for this winter so far.

Remember nippers are a gun bait so i wouldnt be too worried if he out fished you on the day you might of just been a little off

I have been using berkley craws and ghost shrimp with good success recently which are sort of the same looking as nippers

Vibes in the deeper water are real good in winter and for me personally the 3 inch minnows are coming back on for me where over summer i had more success with jiging grubs hawgs and squidgy fish

Just keep changing it up and you will find something that works for you

Any lure can not beat live Yabbie! But all the fish eat yabbie, so that is some noisy with lots of pickers.

defiantly not always theres bloke on here that will have 2 fish in the boat befor one nipper is even rigged up :biggrin2:

Lol im not talking about myself

im going to try drop shotting gulps

since its more subtle and more towards bait

i would still use jig heads

How light in the jig head are you going and what size leader?

i rarely go over 5lb leader and 3 gram heads and thats in up tp 10m of water

im using 6lb or 4lb

but that day it was dirty water so i was using 6lb

1/12 jighead in 2-3m

light jigheads are good but man wind picks up u can't cast much

i use 1/12 and 1/8

and 1/6 for places deep like 10-15m

on still calm days next to the wharf , jigheads don't bite and i put on a 1/16 feed line down and don't even move it, with a gulp worm, i actually catch fish

im thinkin its the same deal atm in winter , gulp bait? hhahe
