Catching Hairtail

[abiasin]

Hi All,

we are getting to that time where cowan is lit up like a xmas tree with everyone chasing hairtail! although i have caught my fair share over the past few years I would have to say I still have plenty to learn as the missed hookups are plentiful!

I have a couple of questions I would love answers or opinions too from anyone and everyone;

#1 Wire trace, singlestrand or fluro leaders????

#2 Pillies or slabs of fish (gar has worked well for me in the past)????

#3 Middle of bays or tucked in close to the shore????

#4 Rising tide or runout tide????

#5 and lastly what moon phase have you had better success on????

any infomoration would be much appreciated!

I had the same idea re the single strand as it is apparently very hard for fish to see in the water and durable.
