TAITORS Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Awesome fish there AEG. Was also down that way last week with 3 mates, fished out of Arno Bay Three days on the water Mon,Wed and Thur. The first 2 days the weather was very ordinary still we managed some nice Reds in the morning and in the arvo targeted the King George Whiting and Squid in the shallows. My best was a 94cm Red on a soft plastic, and a 1020cm Red on a whiting frame with 2 x 9/0 snelled. Once i work out how to post the pictures i will also put up a report.

Benzeenees Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Great fish. How did you get there? If you drove, how long did it take? Did you take a boat or organize a charter over there? Edited January 20, 2012 by Benzeenees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davegroves68 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 anybody know were desent snapper can be caught in sydney? There are a few, but they don't fire all the time. Good luck with getting people to give up the marks. Its all about hard work and time....... And trust me, I am still trying. My best tip is to become best mates with Greg L and Wako All the other Raiders will know what i mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
