Went out yesterday. Caught a heap of rats on the jigs. When using the stick baits it seemed the bigger models were interested. Had a hard time sticking one thou. Had some massive fish trying to attack and smash my stick baits, that is; a lot more than follow, but couldn't hook up. I simply continued my action on the sweep and wind. In such situations can you do pauses or something else to get them to smash it? Frustrating, but great visuals. Saw a huge king get airborn smashing a bait fish right next to the boat.

what lures are you fishing with fish i

Thanks Ginga, that's gold.

Seen it swing in round a bouts throughout the day though, at some stages the stick baits out fish then there mood changes and the poppers will do the damage for a bit. have also found quite often that a pause in the midst of a retrieve will often induce a strike when fish are following but not hitting.
