Shooting Jewies in a Barrel
Just to prove that jewies are dead easy, I had 3 dead pike left this morning after some frustrating attempts at livebaiting the bait grounds during the night(sooooo many small tailor!!!) Here's what happened...
Bait - Butterflied Pike
1st Pike 80cm Jewie
2nd Pike 75cm Jewie
3rd Pike 85cm Jewie
Tada!

The two small ones were caught near the pipe, the big one was taken on the edge of the deep hole. On a runout tide they hang a bit deeper, about 10m to the south of that spot I showed you Rob.

July 23, 2013 8:06:41 pmAfter this mornings lure session, I think it might be time to get back to good ol bait, or have a break till some schools of baitfish start to come through. Nice Jewies and cheers for the lures

Its been a bit tough lure wise but as Wayno showed us the fish are around, just not where we think they’ll be. I might dedicate the next couple of months to some serious bait fishing for big fish before the bait schools arrive in September/October.

Nice ones there Craig, yes pike and tailor for jewies are like feeding candy to a child…..if you get the chance and like a challenge try mullet, my belief is the larger scales slow the swallow.

I’ve taken alot of pictures inside a jewies mouth lately to see whats going on in there and I think you are right. There are grinding plates and teeth like structures right at the back. Because Tailor and pike don’t have scales they pretty much swallow them straight away, but with mullet they hold them and grind the scales off before swallowing.

Gar would probably work just as well, I’d make sure you break off the beak and cut the tail off though.
