Once again, trolling lures to locate the fish and then switching to live bait got anglers into the mix.
The summer fish have been hungry for fresh mozzies or mackerel.
The rock and surf fraternity had their hands full with inedibles last week.
Huge sandies and honeycombs were the main species coming out.
The fresher the bait the quicker the bite, with this being proven time and again.
When targeting these species, weather becomes important, as the most hectic action happens after a few days of a northeast wind and a flat sea.
