    This year 7-9” soft baits on 1-1.5 oz jig heads in 20-30m saw best line fishing i ever have had in pelorus and i put it down to bigger baits being easier to see. Yet u getting them with those wee things!
    Hi @AMac. I am usually fishing those weights in about 20m but it depends on wind/current. I always try to use the lightest weight I can and still get to the bottom. 10-14lb braid with 15-20lb leader works for me. You get a good scrap from a decent snapper on that gear.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
