Gold Coast to Cairns 2010
June 11, 2010, 03:01:23 PM
Hey guys just returned from a trip taking a boat from the Gold Coast to Cairns.
The main priority was getting the boat there but we got to do a bit of Jigging here and there,
Here are some pics.

Yeah,
Looks like a tough job.

Were the reef fish on baited jigs or straight metal?

Did you try any spots in our neighbourhood ( Yeppooon to Mackay)?

Well done!

Baited jigs is cheating Graham.

Luke,

Try putting some squid tentacles on the hooks of your lucanis jigs.  (Just make sure no one sees you do it.)

Might as well just bait fish? That's not jigging at all!

bait aside guys looks like a great trip and some very memorable captures.  I know i would prefer to be fishing with baited jigs over going to work any day!

No there were no baited Jigs whatsoever, that takes away any skill needed in my opinion.
I don't really see how it could benefit in any major way when Jigging anyway, i think it would just ruin the action of the lure.
