My ratbag daughter caught this cute wee thresher on 6lb fireline crystal on my trout rod off Crusoe Rock, Waiheke, a couple of months back.
We couldn't seem to hook any snapper so went down to a tiny #1 hook on a 1/8oz nitro jighead with a gulp 2 inch pretty coloured minow.
It kept her entertained for a decent length of time.
Once we let it go the snapper fishing came back on (using decent sized Zmans on better sized jigheads, of course)
First one I'd ever seen. Never caught one myself either
