Anyone care to explain the choice of lure used in this image?

From the way he's dressed looks too cold for the fish to be used to them that size, even if there is a nudist colony on shore!

about 30 years back we used to pull boat loads of those out of the st lucia estuary. 

It was probably not the right thing to do though. 

My very first was around 30kg. Think I was about 10 at the time and had just chummed the water with a half digested cheese and tomato sandwich, fresh from my guts.

When last did you go to St Lucia to fish? I also remember catching plenty Shad just to the left of the estuary mouth and I used to go into the mouth and spin for Garrick when the Shad were biting big time.

Probably about 15 years ago.

 

We used to go higher up the estuary, a place called charters creek.

But the very last time we went was to st Lucia itself.

Last time I was there was also a few years back and the mouth was closed. Not sure if it is open again. We used to go there and sodwana every year to fish during holidays when we were at school. July was sodwana and st lucia was the next one. Think it was September/October time. Miss this days. Still used to be able to drive on the beach. My toppie had the bakkie kitted out for fishing and beach driving.
