fished out 0 Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I would use a sinker over a float, unless someone has berleyed up gar and tommies then a pencil float would be the go. melv 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CARL 19 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hi Melv . If you can wait until you are here with your son in Hallett Cove give me a call on 0419819041 or leave a message as I'm in the truck most of the time and I don't answer when I'm out of the truck I will show you or better still take you out on my 5.85 1/2 cab regards Carl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bent87 0 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Hey mate- its very rocky and snaggy there- try a heavy styrofome torpedo float above a single hook- keep things simple. A rod of around 9 foot with a medium action will cover most species encountered there like sweep, drummer, cod, jackets, zebras, squid and gar. Ok, maybe a jag for the squid. melv 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
