Occie (octopus) is key as bait. You can use chokka as well but the big boys prefer occie. Slide a whole occie or throw a nice big leg at new brighton pier, bluewater bay or something good and you will be vas with a ducky if they are around.

Fish for them after 2 or so days of heavy east.
Mainly summer fish, but i think they are still around we got a small one off about 20kg this weekend at bluewaterbay.

I use anything from 120-200lb. Beacuse the rags do pick you up.

If the Duckbills are in the vicinity, don't bother how target them, they will target you.
