Thanks for a detailed report. Info like that is really helpful. That's a great fish, not many that size being caught recently. Really interested hearing about the upwellings. Sent you a pm. Cheers, Bart

Appreciate the advice. We will be there first week of Feb. Black trim Evolution half cabin "Sea Eagle".

Thanks Crusher that's good Intel. Do you anchor at Grassy or drift. What's on the bottom up there, reef??Cheers, Bart

Thanks for the info guys. Cheers, Bart

Cheers mate, will take that advice onboard.

Thanks Hotbite very helpful info. One other question, do you use a small section of wire from the bibbed lure to either a swivel or ring and then mono or is it not needed? Cheers, Bart

G'day. Heading to SWR in the first week of Feb and after any general advice for the area. Have a 6m Evolution half cabin and main targets will be mackerel, dollies and small blacks if they are around. Any tips for crossing the bar? Seems most rig their live and dead baits with single strand wire for the macks. 2 hook or single hook rig for livies? What about bibbed lures, do they need a short section of wire as well? Any tips on techniques for the area much appreciated. Cheers, Bart

G'day guys Anyone been down to Longy recently? Kings normally on from this time of the year but haven't seen any reports. Any info appreciated. Cheers, Bart

Good luck tomorrow. Going on Thursday for the first time in ages. Be great to hear if there is much happening out wide. Cheers, Bart

Thanks for the input guys. I like the way your thinking, just get both and swap. What do you think of the Jigging Master rods. The Terminator is toward the bottom of their range but it all seems really good quality and well balanced. Bart

Had a look online at the Saltist. Looks very nice. Seems like the vote goes to the overheads so far. Cheers, Bart

Thanks for the info. That looks like a t-curve deep jig. I've only used mine twice (spin version) but I'm not 100% happy with it. The butt is about 4cm too short I reckon. Thinking of getting a jigging master terminator II in the overhead version. Still undecided on the reel. Cheers, Bart

Bad luck on the missed hits. Thanks for sharing the info. Good karma to you for next time. Cheers, Bart

G'day Dave Which rod did you match that reel to? Cheers, Bart

Thanks for that. How do you compare it to jigging with a spin reel? Bart
