If your not going to take the time to write what you want so that people can understand it, don't expect a response. This sort of text typing that you continuously post is starting to annoy me and I guess a fair few other members, please take the extra couple of minutes to make it legible.

you'll need at least 12ft of boat and i'd try a live yellowtail
or snook etc under a balloon or slow trolled with the hook in it's gob. otherwise the lures that you've mentioned will most likely attract interest. If you wanted to expand your options of lure choice I would recomend an elliots mackeral mauler, scorpion 160 3m, and any other similar sized hard bodied lure should do the job. a 2.5m boat is to small to target a spanish mackeral off hillarys, i fish from a 3.7m boat and rarely venture beyond the reef. if the wind changes or the rottnest ferry drives past you'll be swimming. no ofense intended - if youve got a driver's licence and a car with tow bar im keen to go fishin any time mate, i lost me license late last year ( one to many brews in the system) iv got a 370 sea sprite with a 15hp merc on the back and colour sounder and colour gps also a 27 meg radio pm your details if your interested.

Do you have your RST or much experience. thats a long way in a small slow boat. ive also got a 2.5m boat but i wouldn't dream of taking it out there without another boat
