Jordan Hack:
Went up to Cairns over the weekend to go for a test run in my mates new boat. A1 conditions, plenty of bait but a severe lack off action. Having not fished the location, i am not sure if the lack of activity was due to neap tides, over-fishing or poor performance on our behalf. However i did end up with my first red bass (pretty happy) and a couple of small gts. All strikes/hookups occured within half an hour of each other.

Hi Jordan ,

If Red Bass grows to the size of it's Atlantic Ocean cousin Cubera Snapper , the fight would be equal or better than GT .

Brandon Khoo:
I reckon you would be hard pressed to find anything that goes much harder for its size than a Chinaman (fish, that is  ;D )

Jordan Hack:
Couldn't agree more Brandon. This is the one and only chinaman that i have caught (on bait) and pound for pound pulled harder for longer than any GT I have caught. It would be good if they hit poppers... or do they?

Graham Scott:
Did someone say Chinaman fish
