We used to get the bigger Mulloway using 3 and 4 lb tailor live of the rocks.They also seemed to like a Tailor that had been cut diagonally from just behind the head down to anal fin.

PilbaraBrad's favourite saying - Elephants eat peanuts! Its a true statement and is relevant to fishing too, having said that, big baits do work as well. :)

lol those reefs are
lol those reefs are dangerouse i can honestly say the bait was not the issue the tailor were that stirred up that they would have hit / eaten anything that was injured ie live bait
