Mentioned in van der Elst's a Guide To The Common Sea Fishes of SA, the SA angling record is record is 23,1kg.

According to SASAA the light tackle record is: 83 cm (ORI weight 13,19kg) and the heavy tackle record is: 96 cm (ORI weight 20,53kg)

This is a limited pully rig I came up with to fish for Cracker.

It is very different from the STD rig used by many of the expert Cracker chaps in PE, but sometimes it helps to be different! LoL

The rig consists of the same length hook and simker snoods, but allows for the CRacker to better mouth the bait before it feels the weight of the (often snagged) sinker.

Because the sinker can be clipped for neat long casts you can make the sinker snood much lighter than your main line. This is an advantage in fishing the rocky home grounds of Musselcracker as the sinker line will snap first...leaving you your fish to safely land.
