My Brother killing it lately, south coast rock fishing and mulloway

While i myself havent been fishing because of work commitments and moving house my little bro has been holding up the fort with some outstanding catches while fishing solo. myself and him have been exploring a very remote stretch of coast and slowly but surely we have been finding more and more ledges to fish with Aron making the trek on his own a few times with great sucess, catching and releasing heaps of blue groper and when he isnt on the rocks getting a few mulloway in the river on hardbodys again. ive saved some of the better photos for articles but these self timered ones are not to bad.

few more photos of the groper on 50lb spin gear and the mulloway on 12lb.

Great Catchs

 Great groper there and i'm pretty impressed with the hard bodied Mullaway catch's. Do you have to retrieve slow for them or is a normal medium retrieve the go??

They look like small bibed lures so i'm guessing they are 1-2m divers?

Well done to Aron.

 the mulloway we normally get on shallow running lures and stickbaits moved as fast as we can, they chase them down and attack it but somtimes they arent as fired up so we have to slow it down and more big twitches to get a strike.

Still amazed by the mulla catches. Amazing.

Its a good thing bluies take effort to catch otherwise theyd be in trouble like the east coast, gotta love our rugged coastline.
