Topwater Caranx Ignobilis: Giant Trevally (GT) > Tackle & Techniques

Locating GTs - TIPS Please!!

<< < (2/2)

Al Morrison:
And lets not forget that our favourite beasties also have a penchant for cruising VERY shallow water as well, right up on sand and coral rubble flats that barely covers them. Not just small fish either, the guys targeting them with fly gear on Xmas island are now commonly landing 30-40kg fish from the flats as well as the deeper water. Yet again the tidal movement seems to be the primary drawcard along with obvious bait (mullet/bonefish being prime targets). That might not be relevant for the Coral Sea specifically but certainly other charters show pics of people fishing from 'shore".

Kenny Koh Kee Koong:
Great tips
Me myself also fishing alone in Indonesia Ambon on my own boat
A tip from me is look for current or wave crashing into the rock with lots of white wash
I have landed a few good G.T in this kind of condition before.

Sachin Chaudhry:
Structure and current/tide.
Depth up to 80 ft and you will still raise them on poppers especially if on a drop off.
Jigging, well I've pulled them up from over 300 ft. Painful.
