People were using Sabiki rigs and soft plastics with very small jig heads. Haven't targeted them so I am not sure what is the exact technique.Hammy Y wrote:What's your method for catching Yakkas? I've always wanted to catch some for snapper and gummy bait when I'm out on the boat but have no clue how.Kosta7 wrote:I spent the weekend at San Remo/Phillip Island. San Remo is a great little spot but you only have an 1hr-1 1/2hrs during tide changes. Caught a nice little pinky there and had constant bites. This morning I had something big biting and doing a massive run before my line snapped.
Newhaven gives you a bigger window before tide becomes unfishable.
Spent a few hours last night at Cowes. It gets really crowded especially on the weekends. Only caught one squid but some people did really well. Lots of yakkas there. Fish the start of the pier for squid/yakkas. If you get lucky and get a spot at the end, try the right side as middle/left is very snaggy (lost about 7 rigs...)
Good luck
