TUBE CUTTER

Two factory workers were talking. “I know how to get some time off from work.” said the man. “How do you think you will do that?” Said the other one. He proceeded to show her...by climbing up to the rafters, and hanging upside down. The boss walked in, saw the worker hanging from the ceiling, and asked him what on earth he was doing? “I’m a light bulb” answered the guy. “I think you need some time off,” said the boss. So, the man jumped down and walked out of the factory. The second worker began walking out too. The boss asked her where did she think she was going? “Home, I can’t work in the dark.”

Tackle Talk

By Graeme Sinclair

I must say that I felt a bit of pressure. A few hours represented all of the time available to us and success was not exactly guaranteed.

relied on live or fresh dead baits. Others told me they now use nothing but soft baits but the biggest snapper this year was caught on conventional bait.

The greater percentage of anglers were at Marsden Cove for fun and the possibility of stumbling over a big prize winning fish but several teams had a different focus, they were there to win!

The trick when the pressure is on is to throw in a variety of angling options and in our case two rods loaded with flasher rigs and two anglers utilising soft baits.

Our first responsibility was to go out and catch a snapper suitable for tagging. Once released and if caught during the competition the fish would return to the successful angler $100,000.

We consistently get our biggest fish on soft baits so with the assistance of a drogue or sea anchor we set off on a lengthy drift and in reasonable time had a three kilo snapper tagged and safely returned to the water.

When it comes to targeting huge snapper my preferred approach is burley and live baits usually yellow tail. Sometimes I will take a fresh live bait and butterfly it. In this case you take most of the fillet on both sides off the backbone but leave the head attached. In other words you wind up with the head attached to two big fleshy flaps and using a double hook rig insert one hook through the bottom jaw and out the top and the second hook back where the belly would be, fresh, succulent and irresistible.

I recently filmed the Century Batteries Beach and Boat fishing competition based at Marsden Cove, south of Whangarei.

The consensus was to catch enough for a feed and this was done with the soft baits out fishing conventional pilchards and squid two to one. Although we experimented with a variety of colours, the nuclear chicken five inch jerk shad did the damage. Some of the serious competition anglers were using burley days in advance in the hope of enticing a big snapper to their patch while others with good local knowledge

If I have one of these in the water at change of light, early morning and late afternoon, plus a live bait and nothing happens when the sun hits the horizon then I will throw in a soft bait sometimes with devastating effect, even though I am at anchor and burleying up. Whether you are fishing for the big tournament winning fish or just out to land a good feed early morning and late evening are clearly great times to hunt. Good luck! Tight Lines!
