Jigging Trip 17-05-09


Lyn and Neil ventured out on Sunday for some Autumn jigging.
We encountered some quality Amberjack and also found big schools of smaller A.J's that kept us occupied for a few hours.
Hots Keitan jigs in the bigger sizes up to 250g along with 200g Smith Tachyume jigs on the lighter gear worked a treat.
These are rapidly becoming our goto jigs for Amberjack.
You really have to see the finish on these jigs, no wonder the fish love them.

The other gear used was our much cherished Smith jig rods and Stella reels.







For any advice on jigging drop in and see Lyn, Neil or Steve.

Pelagics in May


Traditionally May is fast fish time in South East Queensland and this year hasn't disappointed.
The long tails have been scarce with the first of the westerly wind arriving, however this should improve over the coming weeks.
Recent trips in both Northern Moreton Bay and Hervey Bay have been turbulent at times but persistence and a little know-how has put a few hefty specimens in the boat.




For all the latest advice and tackle for catching pelagic pop in and see the crew at Jones's Tackle.
Dont forget to mention Happy Birthday to receive your discount and slice of birthday cake.
