Snapper snatchers also work for gumbos

90% of my fish are caught portside in PPB & it has always puzzled me why (WPB is 50-50)
(Flatties love snapper snatches too)

he uses snatchers and running sinkers in PPB im not sure about WPB
and when he says burley hard he really does mean exactly that, the amount of burley he used on a single trip would have lasted me 5 trips atleast.
and yes as he mentions every post, squid session generally first for fresh bait.
