Can't quite remember colin, think we were in about 30m at the time and I guess it was probably about mid water.

Yeah Skinny a couple of good smokings on the jigs aye, reckon one was a decent Chinaman. We caught GT's, rankins, crimson sea perch, tuna, gold spot trevs and cod on the jigs. Was an awesome day.

Good to hear you did alright on the Raba jigs, we gave them a go but they were only effective in the shallower water, no good for deep water jigging.
