    @Gibo. Kingi. I'de suggest going to at least 8/0 or 9/0. Gape works best to hookup if it exceeds lure thickness. Everything else appears good but.

    Fixed it, I hate those things. If I catch a fish I invariably hook it so the mouth is hooked shut. Failing that I'll just hook everything else, clothing, rope, fingers, ...

    That lure looks a cracker and well done on the fish.

    Was such a cool morning, me and a random bloke only ones there. Massive school of them came through. He hooked up, I hooked up, dropped mine, cast again, hooked up. landed mine, 91cm tagged and sent away. He landed his, 75.5cm hooked in the tail, tagged and sent away. His first ever and on top water. Pretty stoked for him, he'll be hooked now! His fish flew out the water when it hit
