Alexsfishin1 781 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 As you all know, my new target was snook... First day targeting them, I caught 2!!! We went at sunset and caught 2 squid straight away. After those 2 squid, the bite had gone down. But I started getting a few hits on the little sp so I persisted. I saw some snook rising from the deep and them BANG! I saw a snook hit the lure! I landed it just as it spat the lure on the jetty. Pew... that was lucky :ohmy: MY FIRST EVER SNOOK!!! Later on after the sun had set, I had one massive hit on the sp lure and this was a BIG FISH! It didn't take up much of a fight considering I had locked drag. I managed to land it on the jetty. I was so excited! I measured it and it was 64cm on the dot! WOW! I WAS SHOCKED... :woohoo: First day targeting my new species and sucess! This big snook had a scar on it's tail which I think might be from another snook or a shark? We ended the day with a nice feed. bjorn2fish, trihull, Squid Flaps and 5 others 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It only retrieved along the surface from the jetty so I would go a 1/8 ounce jighead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
