Hey all,
I went out Thursday morning in Moreton Bay bottom bashing at Harry's (no good as per usual) but came across quite a few Spotties on the way home...
What is the preferred method of landing these on a ski, as I was only able to get 2 on board losing the rest to bad technique and bite offs.
I had no gaf and my landing net is quite small more suited to pan sized snapper... Do you tail grab them, or gaf?? or some other method.
It was fantastic watching schools and schools swim right under the ski, and boiling up only 10 metres away. I should have caught more but didn't have the right gear on board. Also I had 1 lure with wire on but they shied away from that.... what would be the minimum leader in mono to stop losing too many lures.
It was a great fishing trip as it started with hooking a 10ft long hammerhead in the Rainbow channel to a quiet patch at Harries and then Spotty chaos behind Green.
