Snapbacks are ideal for the Point Samson crossing on an outgoing
tide. Just keep throwing them and the water is not deep, so retrieve so that you dont snag. Also Tango Dancers hace done well there, as well as little Roosta Poppers. Tide , dehydration and bitie protection are keys. Cover yourself with Bushmans if anywhere near any mangroves, or you will regret it.
The list mentioned for Dampier is good, and if you spot some Mantas dont forget R2S Triho's, which the flotilla of Cobes will hone onto fast.
