Is 7 foot 1 rod long enough for shore jigging in the harbor mate?I am looking at Shimano Dailuna 7ft1 and the cast weight is 8-45g and I am gonna put 20lb braid on it
Hey mate how do you work metal lures like halo twisty and gillies baitfish for bonito Taylor Mac tuna and possibly king?Do you retrieve it top water or hop it on the bottom?
A bit of both mate, usually just rip it in with a little twitch. Sometimes let it touch the bottom first, sometimes skip it on the top - try it all to see if you can get a strike!
Cheers mate, 15g Twisty - I busted an eyelet on the Pinster then broke it even more replacing it 😨 fixable, but such a light rod that it'll never be the same.
@@chuckingmetalfishing485 yeah once they’re damaged it’s game over. I’ve never repaired a rod, just never had confidence in my attempts. Cheers re twisty. I’ve got some of the super small ones 3.5 and 5g for next summer when they’re feeding on tiny bait.
Hey mate, late reply sorry - near the park there's a few spots, or double bay, or near the jetty in Elizabeth bay 🤘 one time I even paddled from Double Bay because parking was dreadful hahahahaha
@@chuckingmetalfishing485 Cheers mate. Yeah thought so! I always have parking issues haha, thought it would die down during Covid but it seems a lot of people like to launch from the bay with the rowing groups etc… anyways keep it up champ!!
@@reinhardtvanstaden4821 it 100% got worse hahahaha - soon as lockdown lifted everyone wants to work out in the park again hahaha - good luck out there mate!
What size is your Halco and how you work them?
Just little 10g mate, fast retrieve and twitch it a bit 🤙
How do they taste mate?
Can be a bit bloody if you don't bleed them quickly, but not bad if you batter & fry them!
@@chuckingmetalfishing485 thanks mate, hopefully I can get some as well!
@@joshzfishing fingers crossed mate!
What bait did u use
Just halco twisties mate!
What was the verdict on the eating?
Decent! Would definitely bring them home again, crumbed-tuna-taco's were a hit at home, just gotta avoid that blood line.
What lure are you using?
Oh, and Halco Twisties for tuna 🤘

I'm definitely not qualified to answer shore jigging questions hahahaha, but the first rod I ever shore jigged with was 6'4" 😊
