Snapper Lures - show me your favourite!

[maverick]

Spent some time changing a few hooks on the Snapper lures, leaving some with trebles and some with singles, just as a comparison. Hope to get some u/w video on the lures in action, including some head2head action of identical lures. But - who has been catching Snapper on what hard bodies?

Here are some of mine, the smaller lures for the shallower reef on lighter gear and the bigger versions with a couple of roughies thrown in.

Bring on the higher water temp.

Medium size.

My favourite is stuck on reef near the mussel farm. I think it was an Anaconda special, which I won at a VYAK comp.......blue coloured minnow with 3 sets of trebles, only got down to about 6m, but was great overthe shallow reefs. Haven't been able to replace it

The Tail Dancer in Perch has caugh some great fish, but not on my rod. I think the one in the pic is a loan one from Yacker after I watched him catch nice 4kgger model on one and I got mine bogged on another reef, so he lent me a spare one.

Big G caught a PB (5 kg?) on the same version.

I did see a post by some one recently who caught a top fish on the silver coloured version.

This season is my season to focus on HB's.

This year is my first attempt at trolling for snapper but here is some of my selection.

Some of my larger lures:



I'm very keen to try the stump jumper next trip out as I like the look of it, gunna change the trebles though as I think they are a bit big.


A couple of smaller versions, these are only 50mm lures but dive 8+m (might be just what's needed when they arent really on the chew). I reckon they'll get smashed up to buggery if I hook up and will probably only end up with a half a bib when I pull it in but I'm willing to take the gamble .

still to nail a big red on a lure so that's a hopeful goal this season but all of these(or their original) have caught fish around the 50-60 mark

Silly question, but I am new to all this, are you trolling these or cast n retrieving them?
