Get a good gaff and game clip if you want to target and land bigger fish.

Kiwigrant,
You picked the right sport!! Forget the drift bag. Especially since you have a hobie. The idea is this, on a windy day, the drift bag allows you to drift slowly over a particular spot, like a reef. But you already own a drift bag, it's called a Hobie. Just point it into the wind a peddle just enough to slow your drift. How easy is that? For this coming yellowtail season you'll need a dedicated pole and rig (sabiki) to catch bait fish, macks. You'll need a rod and reel for live bait, and finally a rod and reel to cast a surface iron. Mastering those rigs and their usage will keep you busy and happy. Good Luck, Yanni |

Sorry another newbie
Thank you, good tips, I take it a sabiki rig/ rod is just a light weight rod reel combo, I have a 20 lb rod and reel that I think would be good for live bait and the 30 lb set up for irons, I do have a couple of light rigs for bait.
Thanks again |
