Guest Aussie007 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 use a mustard sabiki jig with peeled prawns burley up and u cannot miss u can catch them around public wharfs in port hacking or if u have a boat mol point in botany bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullowhat Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 replys by sparky and gazza are on the money - but just remember that if using a baited bait jig rig you can legally only have 3 hooks in total. Minced meat, pilchard pieces and whitebait are also good baits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fryboy Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I go the jigging setup you can buy in the shop for $2.. Six hooks 6/0. Never have problems catching them if you burley up and drop the jig in the burley trail. Only trick is to try and keep them from getting tangled if you want to use them multiple times.
