Giant Trevally are permanent residents along the Great Astrolabe Barrier Reef and inshore coral lagoons. They are frequently caught all year round by simply trolling lures along reef adges and over large coral heads.
They are however a lot more fun when targeted using popper casting gear. The largest GTs inhabit the barrier reef outer slopes and in particular, the big reef breakers.
