  • The punishing wind and rain has made it difficult to get after Mangrove Jack this season. Just getting a lure down through the debris has been impossible at times. With a break in the rain, I decided to head down to Tallebudgera Creek and see how the creek was cleaning up. The ramp was covered in sticks and driving around at night was a challenge with the logs and brush piles washing out. The further up the creek i went, the dirtier it got. Once the tide changed and the cleaner water moved in, my night got interesting. There's some big Jacks in there!

    Hi, Great vid... I have caught some small Jacks on dead bait infrequently, but want to get into livies...If you were using a much smaller live bait (Biddy, Herring, Poddy), do you use a sinker (if so, where), to get the bait to the bottom, and do you still hook through upper jaw....thanks...

    Cracking Jack mate, good to see the old school method's breaking the drought for you and what a fish 👍.
    I was always partial to using Sprats & Poddy Mullet as live bait, although Sprats tend to lose their scales easily and will die fairly quickly if you don't change the water or scoop the scales out of your live bank tank.

Johnny any chance you could measure the base of your Gravity Seat on your Kayak for me, I just want to see if I could get one into a Moken. Cheers and thanks in advance.

I was also in a little fishing shop the other day and he was telling me how they sold out of a certain colour or style of lure that had been sitting on their shelves for 6 months within hours of you posting a vid. on that lure.
