Hints Fish found under lighted areas at night. Push hook through the middle of the whitebait then go under the gill and out through the eye and clove hitch around the tail. Spin with silver wobblers over weed beds. In the surf fish are found in deeper water behind the breakers at the corners of beaches. Fish have a soft mouth requiring care when hooked. Suspending bait under a float in big washes around rocks is productive.
