Chasing black jew in the Duke Islands and decided to add some pressure with an eating live bait challenge.
Rules are simple.
Catch a black jew or eat the live bait!
First step in the live bait challenge is catching the live bait!
We used a bottom pocket cast net on the beaches and we use the off the wrist technique to stay clean and dry.
After picking up some nice size mullet and legal whiting, we hit the water looking for our jewie school from the day before.
The Duke Islands in Central Queensland are a privately owned archipelago boosting great fishing.
Because they are privately owned, they can be reached by plane if you are staying at the homestead or via boat from Stanage Bay.
Despite the 600 knots of wind and huge tides limiting fishing options, we found the area very productive.
Using sounder skills we also jigged up some livies to add to the live bait challenge.
