Gars
Been on a few missions over the past couple weeks to stock the bait freezer for a few upcoming trips.
Plenty of gars in PPB recently.
Off Mt Eliza this morning. They were getting bashed right behind the boat at times too......couldn't tempt the culprits with a livie or plastics. Didn't even get a look at them.
Cheers.

Re: Gars
That's a pretty good haul
I tried for them off Mt Martha cliffs from the yak today, no joy though. It was my first time targeting them though so I was probably doing a bunch of stuff wrong
There's a garfish stickbait available that might work well when something starts hitting the school of gars you've burlied up: http://www.rayannes.com.au/shop-online/ ... 120-23-95/
Never used it myself but I know kingfish like them

Re: Gars
They were out in about 12m. Often the case when it's bright and calm. Especially if they're getting beaten up.4liters wrote:That's a pretty good haul

Yes, I've seen those online and wondered if they might be worth having in the box. I've had some success in the past hooking a dead gar through the head and casting retrieving it for rats. But no love today.

Re: Gars
Yep. I always make sure a couple of the better ones get put aside. Quite fond of them actually.Fish-Hunter wrote:Nice catch of Garfish, they also are great for the table. :cheers:

Could be right Dazz. Have seen quite a few sniffing around the boat around Mornington last few time out around there.
