if i cant get live bait, whats the best bait to use and what is the best time to go chase them?

Vertical lure. Big ones that you jig up hard, jerkey and fast.

Before you post, think about what you know about catching a certain species and then post questions to improve your knowledge.

For example: "Hi all,

I've been doing a fair bit of landbased fishing and wanted to venture into something a bit more fun.
I'm looking to catch some Yellowtail Kingfish off the land as I do not have a boat.

Has anyone had any success and can recommend an area for me to try?? Also, what should I look for when trying to target Kingfish?

I understand that people with boats troll for them with lures. I also understand that one of their favourite baits is a live Yakka. How can I catch these Yakkas?? What hooks should I use??

Any help would be appreciated.

Matt"

THAT IS HOW YOU WRITE A TOPIC!!!

Spot on mate , you nailed it .
