Haven't posted a report for a while but I thought I'd share a new method I've been putting into practise.
I've been fishing for jacks a bit differently this season. Different to the "fish the snags" method.
I've been finding good dropoffs with hard current flow. This provides a lot of bait eg. prawns, baitfish etc. spilling over the dropoff into the mouths of hungry predators.
I might add that this is all over sandy bottoms, no structure. Just goes to show that Jacks are a pretty active fish and like to cover the flats on certain tides.
I've been doing okay on the red fellas this season but scored my first 50cm fish on this method last night.
Fish was released to fight another day.
Think outside the square, Jacks habitat areas other than snaggy country.
