help with snapper in the Sound
Submitted by Paul N on Thu, 2008-09-11 12:01
Looking to try in the sound next week as the swells are up and looking for a bit of shelter. Will be launching from woodies and looking for help on where and how to catch a snapper. Only fished the sound a couple of times before without any joy.
When people talk about burlying up are we talking about cubing mulies or pollard like for herring?
Any tips on where to drop the pick , out in the middle of the sound or closer to the island or closer to the ramp.
Any help would be great.

When you go fishing and you catch something, that's good. If you're making love and you catch something, that's bad.

Its hard work paul
Not as easy as everyone thinks you have to put some time in
and know where to look,
but great when they go off put some time in and you'll get rewarded.
Gunna give it a bash on sunday hopefully

Well the best tip is to sell
Well the best tip is to sell your boat and get a kayak, the stealth and quietness of the yak will have you catching them like theres no tommorow

Big Lekky
Cheaper option....by a VERY BIG bow mounted Lecky
That way, you can keep your boat and still have stealth LOL
