Trolling the swan
Submitted by dshoot on Mon, 2010-08-30 19:36
I can't believe I caught tailors trolling the swan. I was in shock yesterday when me and a mate were taking the dinghy out for a cruise and hooked on a few nice tailors with a couple of rmg scorpions... It was freaking awesome experience for me and reminded me of Kalbarri when trolling for mackies, I recommend for those who have a small dinghy to give it ago,

Always had fun trolling in Swan for choppers around summer, good light tackle fun and they also do the trick as livies for Mulloway later on in the evening

Caught a couple trolling
Caught a couple trolling (and on everything in a my tacklebox once) but were all just undersize. Was still fun catching 20+ tailor in a session, but nice to keep just one :p.
How big were the ones you were picking up?
