Q

When should I use a f loat?

Mike- via e-mail.

A

You can use a f loat pretty

much any time. When I was

younger I always used a f loat.

I just loved watching it go down

when it got a bite. It also allowed

me to cast very small unweighted

baits a good distance. Plus I didn’t

have much money for tackle and

f loats prevent snags. Try using a

f loat and if it doesn’t work, try

fishing without one.

pleased af ter catching their

first ever spot ted mackerel.

Port Phillip Bay on a pilchard bait.

Matthew says the snapper “put up a

good fight” and was his PB snapper.

Well done, Matthew!
