VIDEO: Lure fishing for grunter
I have caught all my grunter in what I tend to refer to as the traditional manner.
I have used squid, sea lice, sardine fillet, sardine head, prawn and shrimp in my pursuit of grunter.
All these baits have worked and I have found sardine head especially useful for bigger grunter at St Lucia on the KZN north coast.
I have also shared footage of anglers using flies and fly tackle to catch grunter.
However, I think today is the first time I have found footage of grunter being caught on surface lures.
It really does seem an awesome (and less messy) tactic in targeting these fish.
The footage below was shot in the Eastern Cape.
