Are these hardy heads. Lots around at the moment and I am catching them easily on small jig hooks. They have rather tough scales to sink a hook through. Makes me think herring might be better bait?

Found the herring to be better most times personally depending whats on the bight mindyou..Originally Posted by back2boats
Certainly bait does depend. Last night, got a nice 55cm grunter, but he took my light line with a banana prawn, instead of the big line with the herring.Still got him though ...
Mate weve been getting GOOD Grunter , Mostly Banana prawns have to admit but still ita miss n hit which they prefer ?? Prawns or or your local herring..

Great live baits for snapper in the shallows...unweighted on a 1/0 circle hook on light line.
Big bream are also greedy for them.

good to know thanks
There isn't a big bream or flathead around that would turn its nose up at a hardyhead..they love em.
Used ta get them around the traps here years back but havent seen a school of them fer yonks??.
reckon our bream aren't big enough. They don't seem interested.
Yes, used to see thousands of them moving down the beach in a big school. These have been hanging around the jetty for a few weeks.
