SP & Snapper

 Hopefully, weather permitting, I'm gonna hit the Sound Sunday chasing Snapper.

Is there a favourite SP colour, scent, brand, size & weight you guys recommend?

Any hints & tips greatly received.

 

I've still to land a legal sized one.

 7" McArthy bullhead minnow in pink/pearl. Dynamite. Jighead weights will depend on the depth your fishing but generally speaking allow 1 gram per metre.

 lol you'll probably get a different answer from everyone to that question, my best advice would be the shallower you go the smaller you gohad good success on 3 inch gulps in 8 metres of water use enough weight to just get you to the botttom

snapper will eat anything if in doubt use natural colours i like the lime tiger gulp though

I hope you have good luck with the SP Fisherking.  From reading this site it sounds like you can do pretty well once you crack the code but I am still just trying to catch my first legal Snapper with bait since moving to WA.
