Had a pretty good night fish in the 40's off hillarys fri night with some smallish pinks , monster sambos and a pB red snapper , then came in for a few hours sleep before heading out for another session yesterday in close on light gear then out to the 40/50's off hillaries agsin , got a ripper sambo in 14m on 10lb jig plus some skippy to 60cm and some unstoppable beasts then a couple of smallish dhu and a good Baldie out deeper later plus a couple of sharks and several more sambos .just dropped of the boat to be prepared for display st the boat show this weekend. Racked up 30 hours since picking it up last Friday afternoon!

snell
Crasny , thata about standard length snell for me using californian squid although the baldy was on a skippy fillet , dont usually make rigs out of Hoodlums but they are sharp and bloody strong!
