    Good on ya @stingray. Sounds like you made the most of a pretty marginal weekend.
    Just to set the record straight, I don't think lures are the be all and end all of fishing.
    I do my share of bait fishing (dead and live) but I will always start with a lure as I enjoy the more "active" way of fishing. If I am not having any joy, sure I will go to bait and see if that makes a difference. If I have room, I will put a bait out and lure fish at the same time - best of both worlds.
    PS. Those spotties will take a lot of beating.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Good day yesterday, best of the bunch in pictures below.

    Kingfish came home after a long fight on light gear. Snapper was caught in 8 metres of water on a soft bait, so a sweet release
