Jurien FAD's this Saturday on Seasports Charter

Hi gang

 

We are heading out with Whitey on Seasports Charter this Saturday for some light jigging and to fish the FAD's.

 

I am all set with my selection of jigging tackle, but I need some help with what lures I should be using at the FAD's?

 

Any info will be much appreciated.

Well, to actually give some advice.

It will work twice but not thrice. Either Dolphin fishes are are sluts for novelty or spooky, or something, but I mix it up between HBs, SPs and trolling to keep the bite going.

Dolphinfish are sluts for novelty and yes, they do love prawns!! Ours eat lots of em every day and some days prefer them over squid or mulies.

Wouldnt they be way to big

Wouldnt they be way to big for dollies? Perhaps a really greedy marlin might consider something that big.

Don't trouble yourself with the marlin gear mate.  We can save the marlin fishing for March when you switch over to big game charter season.
