We all know braid is stronger, more sensitive and more expensive, but we also know that mono is more resistant to rocks, more popular and requires lower maintenance. I, personally am a mono fan.

If your fishing off the rocks, try using mono. With braid, if you have a big fish on your line and it runs to the rocks, the line will snap. (the rocks would act like scissors) With mono, you have some protection against this as it is multi-layered. Also it is often cheaper. There have been huge technological advances with mono, some of the best lines come from Berkley. Also, you often have to clean and dry braid, especially with saltwater because otherwise it get's weak and disintegrates. Give it a try! The only thing is that if you try and spool your reel with mono that is too thick, it can

annoying we can't change our bucket list then.

I suppose i'll have to cut my bucket list short then, i live in SA

I have caught a small one at Victor harbor before, but does anyone know anywhere to get a decent sized one?thanks

Hidoes anyone know anywhere that does a good snapper fishing charter? What are they like???thanks

it was a private competition. The organisers thought it was funny though

not as effective as eight though!

so i guess my sabiki is a no then.

ok, i just wasn't aware of this. Why are they selling ILLEGAL fishing equipment in kmart and spot on tackle?

i doubt they would sell it in Kmart if it was illegal. It didn't say there was a limit on the hooks anyway.

well, the little platform had A LOT of people on it! by the way, if your going to kmart, get a few sabiki rigs, baited with garfish and a burley sinker, its got eight hooks and you'll get a baitfish in a few seconds.

off the bluff

won the competition with a few silver trevally and luderick on a Sabiki bait catcher.

thanks people, just getting a few ideas because there is a fishing comp there soon, biggest fish wins.

As for 'destroys wildlife' the same could be said for many activities including rec fishing. Like anything it is the level of destruction which determines sustainability and this should be the basis for regulation.Lastly regarding snapper populations...have any evidence of this claim? Seeing as the super trawler never operated here? Just asking because the current pilchard wild catch is 30' date='000 tonnes from a more localised area of SA waters and surely would be far worse than 18,000 tonnes caught across the southern half of our EEZ by the super trawler.TB [/quote']One snapper gone counts

thanks, how big are the snapper do you get from outer harbour at this time of year?

thanks, i think i will buy a snapper box from k-mart and take it to OH rocks. Do i go right to the end of the rocks or should i go to the small fishing platform?

Can you get squid there during the daytime? what colour jig is best to use? thanks in advance

cool, thanks, any silver trevally lure suggestions?

yeah, sorry i only just realised not disrespecting the water! they look similar..

Supertrawler destroys wildlife- Supertrawler affects snapper population-

yeah, i didnt release them...
