    Was into big blue at lunch today (floggers were closed monday ) to stock up on some stuff for the forum trip.
    End result = have entered(thanks wife) myself and my son into our first ever fishing competition!....and will use all I bought to stock up
    No doubt all fish catching ability will disappear now

    For snapper

    Ledger rig+ stray-line is my go to....depends on weather/tide sometimes stralyline is not possible with wind against tide etc, sometimes go heavy weight with free floating rig from sinker imitating a set-line but not often....I am an active fisher preferring to be in contact with my hook at all times.

    If its the one on the 17th, i rekon those one day ones are good vc. It puts everyone in a similar area on same day so same conditions. Often no real advantage big boat or small.

    Results in a more even playing field than the multiple day ones where folk are spread over a wider area etc.

    Good fun for the kids too and if you enter enough of them you end up winning something (spot or otherwise) that covers the entry for a few more.

    Good luck !!
