@MB We are just using pretty basic rigs that are working very well. Main line is tied straight to a swivel. Thats attached to a 2.5m or so trace of 310lb Mono.
Using a 10/0 -16/o circle hooks. Using pretty big baits, fish heads . Believe it or not we just lobbing them out (no sinker or weight) 10 feet to 30 feet from shore!

\Getting a hook up within 15mins everytime, its quite unreal considering its the local beach where every woman, man, child goes to lol.

Only been fishing at night but might have a day time look soon to see if they there. Low tide so we get inj the channel and current is not much

That's great, thanks. Maybe I'll get round to giving it a go. I even have the traces tied (rainy day project). Really shows that in general bronzies aren't interested in humans unless they are spearfishing (I'm a novice spearo).
