Using Savage Gear Octopus Jig on Snapper

Join the crew as we hit up the Barwon Banks off the Sunshine Coast for a spot of snapper fishing. Being one of the favourites to target off the coast, they’re a great table fish — and the big ones pull hard!

Watch our video for a couple of tips to get you going. Scotty Hillier demonstrates the running ball sinker. When getting to the bottom, wind up five metres and let your bait just waft through where the fish are, up off the bottom feeding.

Also coming to BCF stores soon, the Savage Gear Octopus Jigs — as real life as they get and boy, do they deliver!

All the products featured in our video can be found in store at any BCF — they’ve got all the right gear and advice to be pulling up snapper in no time at all.
