0 Cobba12 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Grinner. They like it when you cut their head off and use them for flesh bait. Kind of like a carp..........KILL IT! Well up in QLD anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Light Gear Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 thanks everyone, a bit south, must be the warm currents still pushing down. Had a look at the Manly hydraulics site and the water is nearly push 20deg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 pure spirit Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 you get lots of small ones around watsons bay but that's a monster, I've had them hit squid jigs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Reggae Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I caught one of those in pittwater a few years back. I had no idea what it was and because it was prehistoric looking I threw it back for fear that it might be a rare fish. I eventually identified it and it is a grinner fish.
