Anyone that’s seen my TV show knows that big tailor are my specialty. I just love getting stuck into the swell with my boat, pushing the edges of the whitewash to see if any jumbos are at home.

It’s not too hard to find 30cm tailor in the river, or even 35cm tailor from the beach, but how do you go about finding 2 kilo plus fish?

Well, technique is everything, from casting through to picking exactly where the fish will sit to ambush their prey. You really have to know where the fish are and land a bait or lure on their nose.

So which bait and what lure? A-ha! That’s what you’ll learn during one of my big tailor lessons.

I know the spots and I’ve caught tailor from Southern WA to Coral Bay and just about every spot around Perth’s inshore waters. I can show you what baits will work, which lures to use at what times (it does vary) and how to work them perfectly to get results almost every time you go out.

Just look at the photos on the left and tell me those guys aren’t stoked with my advice!

I can do lessons from your boat from Cockburn to Two Rocks with half a day generally being required to give you a good background on techniques and spots. The same applies to shore based tailor fishing. I can show you probable large tailor locations from Marmion to Two Rocks in half a day.
