Chris boated his rst diamond trevally.
When the fishing turned on for a short period, bites came eas- ily for everyone.
The day after, big snapper were caught on soft plastics.
Plastics have been owning the scoreboard

familiar with vibe fish- ing principles.
On the flip side, we travelled home and tried a different spot on the way.
Teams can help make the magic.
And the plastics dom- inated.
Another day comes to mind, we had some very experienced an- glers on board.
Not just bite rate, but size too.
I fished plastics while they fished jig.
Jigs hit on the bot- tom were all bites from smaller fish.
I struggled to get a bite, but they pinged one here and there.
Plastics hit all through the column, but gener- ally midwater and defi- nitely bigger fish.
But it was curious that the jigs seemed to irritate the fish, when they were stuck on the bottom and sulking.
Queenfish and tuna in a mixed pelagic school – not a surface school – boom, on the soft plastic.
Go figure...
Ben banged a few golden trevally on jigs.
