So it's easy to substantiate the belief that if you're into a pod of cookie cutter schoolies that's what you will continue to catch.

Being fortunate enough to be standing on a flooding bar when a blitz came through (and through my legs) I've seen larger fish hugging the bottom with the smalls up top as the blitz worked it's way by.

My question is, reading and hearing in the shops about larger fish being taken when the majority of people are into twinkies, it would appear that these bigger fish are loners or is it just the angler is being skilled/ lucky enough to pull one out of the school?

What do you think?
