Lure anglers have found that they have by far the most success fishing top waters. Not always slowly either. Many grunter have been picked up on top waters while going after leeries. I thought this technique was mostly used effectively in areas which have swimming prawns, but while fishing at struis I was speaking to a lure angler at the harbour who has been using the technique with great effect in the breede along with a couple of his friends. I think its really worth playing around with surface flies for grunter, but seeing as I have caught only two in my life and only one on fly don't take this as brilliant advice. Its just a gut feeling.
An honest fisherman is a pretty uninteresting person.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and not only is he hungry but broke for the rest of his life as well.
