Yeah, every now and again I and get herring or sardines (some people call them). I just like to have a good variety of bait because sometimes they like one thing more than the other. If I could get some Yakka/yellow tail even better. I'd love to get some of the little wrasse or whatever trout spit out sometimes. If a trout spits one out and you put it on they go nuts and nearly pull you out of the boat.
I've been out before and had 4 different types of bait, and they will prefer one thing to another. Sometime pillies are great, other times herring or mullet, fresh flesh, shark, just luck of the draw I guess.
