Onya Ben,
I got a couple last year at that size, they've got plenty of ticker about them.
Good work again, Jeff.

[BLOOEY]

Ta Jeff. Going to give them a rest for a while now. Up your way for a week starting tomorrow. Ben

Ben i got heaps of these last summer and cant wait to start chasing them agian this summer... We got all ours on "walk the dog" style surface lures so may be worth trying some of those out. Maria's Wise dog was the gun lure its also very easy to get walking!

Dropped one last year that would have given the 1m mark a nudge he got all wrapped up in the leader and broke it after one of the many crazy jumps!!
They just go plain mental when hooked. Can be abit hard to get them to swim off though which is a shame.

Where about are you getting them, just never seen herring that big before? Thanks Ky. The herring i have caught on the sunshine coast are different and not that big.

you may have been catching tarpon up your way mate , but there are plenty of giant herring up that way to thats size and much much bigger

Hey joe, I've thrown every lure in my box at the ones in this location including walk the dogs but they aren't commited enough to smack em(when i'm there anyway). Had 3 bigger ones shoulder eachother out of the way chasing a popper a while back but they still diddn't hit it. Ky, breamnut is spot on i reckon. Ben
