BIG SLAMBO!
Headed out to rotto to try jig up some sambos yesterday and they were on! took us a while to find the school but when we did they were hungry! Ended up with 25 of them from 5-10kg and then headed in shallower to try for some tailor. We arrived at a lump near Carnac in 2 metres of water (yes only 2 metres) and everything was looking great, second cast resulted in a 45cm tailor which got chased in by an absolute horse of a sambo. I rigged up my mates torium 20 (I knew we were dreaming running 50lb) and out went the big tailor live! within a minute the sambo was chasing our livie all over the place and eventually nailed it on the surface right in from of us. It smoked us but my mate managed to turn its head before it buried is in the reef. I'll let the photo do the talking with this one! also got 16 tailor to 50cm and some snook ect.
