big_steve Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Gidday guys, just a quick post im only fairly new to the fishing scene jus brought my self a nice boat and im keen to get out to botany bay and catch some big 1's.. hehe the main reason for this post is in regard to FISHING LINE AND HOOKS.. wats the best line to use for the bay brand and pounds???? also what hooks are the go?? id like to target flatties, bream, snapper and what ever else although i doubt if i ever hooked a KINGIE in the bay he wouldnt realy last long on 6lb line huh... At the moment i hav 6lb line on all my reels.. my 1st ever trip into the bay i had some EXCELLENT hook ups but the line just snapped... although i managed to surface a small port jackson but once he got close to the top he chucked a mental and snapped the line.. GREAT FUN tho.... so guys it be awesome if you have any hints tips or advice for me.. thankx for ya time fellas... good fishing and tight lines every1 water temp starting to rise a little in the bay BRING ON THE FISH Steve...

Bashir Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 6lb is perfect for bream and flathead. You can fishing lighter for the bream if you like, with the flatties, it can help to use a heavier trace of around 12lb when using baits and don't let them thrash their heads.
