Doesn't need to be rough at the mole
Submitted by STAAL LOVER on Thu, 2008-05-22 18:22
caught this snapper within 30 min at the mole . The first time I gave it a go ! With help from the nephew. 99% of people there were doing it all wrong . even had the bloke next to me spitting chips cause he had been there from sunset the night before !!! you would think he would change to the way we were fishing but continued to do the wrong thing !!!!!! always pays to change if something else works !!!!!

Nice snapper, and I'll agree
Nice snapper, and I'll agree it doesn't always have to be rough to get one from the Moles. 84cms would be around 8kgs. They vary a bit sometimes. I had two similar length snapper(around 68-69cm) a while ago and there was nearly 2kgs difference between them.
