Water temperatures, and in particular changes in water temperature, fundamentally affect how fish behave, where they hang out and what they eat.

Episode 529: Mackay Slow Pitch Jigging With Mick Hassett

July 04, 2022 01:55 - 49 minutes - 28 MB

Mick Hassett describes slow pitch jigging on the Great Barrier Reef as being like "sticking your hand in the lolly jar with a blindfold on".
