You are correct. I had a nice session last Wed at Kilmore with three mates, 9 Schoolies and 1 keeper of 3.5 lbs(47 cm). all were caught on lug, from mid tide to about 1 hour before high tide, and only 60-90 feet out.

Mack didn't get a bite, and all of the fish were caught on the lower hook on the rigs.
