Hey all,
Caught my first Black Jewie last Sunday, ended up with 6 in total. Between the 3 of us on board we caught 21 in just under 2 hours. All were caught on squid baits(frozen) and in 15ft of water at a spot near Groote Eylandt in the Gulf of Carpentaria. The biggest one weighed went 16kg. We kept 8 and tagged and released the rest. Also managed my biggest Golden Snapper which weighed in at 7kg. All caught on a TLD15 spooled with 15kg mono,100lb leader on a Fenwick 15kg rod. Thought I'd post some pics for you to all enjoy. And yes, we were in open water,just look at how rough it was... NOT. ;D
