When putting the hooks in your livies make sure that if you lay the hook against the the fish that the barb is facing up if its an offset hook. Putting the hook across the fish does work but another way that hooks up better is to put the hook fore and aft by putting the point under the skin with the point coming out facing the front of the bait. Fish swallows the bait headfirst and hook doesnt fold against the bait or gets buried in the livie as can and does happen going acrosswise.

Thanks Andrew! A series of night sessions, always something going on to keep it interesting ending up with that big PJ!

If you get a blue swimmer crab on your rod and you have no net. So instead of lifting the crab straight up. Point your rod tip down toward the crab and swirl your line around and around a few times over the crab. And usually the line catches on the crab. Then you can lift the crab without it dropping off. It works 95% of the time and It ends up getting tangled in the fishing line.

I swear I caught that same Port Jackson in the Harbour last week lol. Must of been at least 15kg. Lately I found jewies prefer a butterflied yakka than a live one for some reason. This is with two rods out at the same time , one live and one butterflied. Might be due to the flesh being exposed and therefore tastier.

@ShroomFishing

How much are you looking to spend? Most reels over 50 bucks will do the job. Something like a Sienna or Sedona will catch a few. For reels, I’d look at longevity of a metal bodied reel if possible. Smooth drag too but it’s hard to quantify that
