Snapper, known as pink snapper in Western Australia, are a much-loved Australian species, appreciated as much for their eating quality as they are for their sporting attributes. Snapper can be caught in estuary, bay and offshore environments along our east, west and south coasts.
There’s a bunch of ways to enjoy these great fighters, and now we can add trolling to that list! While this is a relatively underrated technique for this species, results have shown just how deadly it can be, and it’s a great way to maximise your chances when motoring between spots!
Snapper is one of the most popular fish caught by recreational anglers in Australia. They are found along the south coast of Australia and all the way up the Queensland and Western Australia coast.
