Its really location,
Its really location, location, location for those boys.
GB as shallow as 100m, never seens a BG come up in less than 250m, although it is possible. Puka a little in between ;)
Deeper for Trevala, but less than 500m would be usual.
Bait: same bait for any, whole herring on circles ... or jigs!
You're not fishing out of Perth though, are you?

I thought you were further North, but perhaps that was work related?
Some long drives out of Mandurah and Bunbury!

A good sounder is the key!!! You can put any bait in front of them an they will swallow it. It's just finding them an getting your bait there
