Metro tailor advice
Submitted by Jase123 on Sun, 2012-07-08 13:27
Hey guys,
Just wondering where I should go and what time (sunrise? sunset? dark?) to catch a nice winter tailor.
Have a week off so keen to chase a few (landbased)!
Cheers, Jase.

down to any beach and give it a try. Or do a site search been lot's of talk about Tailor over the last few months.
Old fishermen never die they just smell that way.

look for
reef structure and the gutters along the beach, either sunrise or sunset both fish well, throw unweighted or weighted mulies, stickbaits, poppers over reef.

tommo gave u good advice, i
tommo gave u good advice, i normally fish sunset if i get there in time but most times its dark when im tailor fishing, make sure there is a good gutter and knowing how to spot the gutter is the key, look for changes in the beach formation, if u are fishing the same beach allot, formations change everyday and when new deep holes or gutters appear, u have a good chance of getting something good, poppers, slices and Stickbaits are my prefered method to catch these great fish, but u can also baitcast unweighted mullies or mullies on a basic beach rig with sinker depending on the area ur fishing, and how much reef is around, dont get put off by a howling strong wind tailor like that, it might not be easy to cast far out, but remember sometimes the tailor could be right at ur feet, many times i have casted out a slice and just as its near my feet i scored a massive tailor, great fun and good luck
