Rybak 641 Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Good try but a bit stressful for the fish..Was the PVC wet & not hot/warm before hand - Just saying.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All very good points Rybak - yeah my fish handling in the vid could have been better. I'll make sure its wet in the future. The smooth PVC is probably better than rasping away on dry carpet or dry floors but there is definitely room for improvement in technique. I would never have attempted the aerial stuff but the Camera man was complaining about his sore back, so I was trying to avoid him having to bend over to film. Once the filming was over it was done on the floor - but the floor was dry aswell - might have to rig up a rectangular landing tub with some water it and just leave the measurer in that Thanks for the suggestions doobie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rybak 641 Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Just dip measure into water beforehand quickly or use a rag wet to handle without measure. Simple enough to have a bucket with clean water in it beit fresh or saltwater. I always have a bucket filled with clean water. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Rybak - Ive got a 10litre bucket that will be perfect for hand washing and ruler dipping My mates get a bit weird about me cluttering up the deck with all my contraptions - and Ive always wanted to include a bucket full of water for washing hands - but if I can convince them its absolutely necessary for fish care - I reckon that will get it approved Des and Rybak 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A good call about fresh water - I remember making a mistake while camping at the beach. I got my hair wet and rubbed a block of soap all through my hair, to wash out a weeks worth of slimy fish hands running through it. That day I learnt that alot of soaps dont lather or dissolve in salt water Soobz, dmck and Rybak 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Haha - I was trying to get a bit cleaned up before heading back into civilization. Didnt quite work out - just coated all my hair in lard and I ended up looking like "Young Einstein" until I rinsed it out at the next Servo we came across. It was a remote area, so our drinking water was still too important to waste on getting soap out of someones hair Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A few days before the water rations were put in place we spent a good 2 hours in the blazing sun, digging the 4wd out of the side of a sand dune. It was a good reminder that when you're in a spot thats a long way from the nearest mechanic and has a rep for being tough on cars, you may be out there a bit longer than you had planned Softy, doobie and Soobz 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yellow door 1 1,841 Posted November 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2022 The little fish we found were bighting very poorly - even on locally caught calamari baits we anchored on a few schools and could barely get them to bight - its about as bad as Ive seen them bight in many years. So the Jury is out on Reddies as bait - they will still hit them - but they arent a miracle bait doobie and Softy 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Usually if we found the schools we found on the weekend - it would be a frenzy. The fish werent big - and the little guys are almost always hungry. That moon could have put them off - the bite was slow enough for both of us to agree it was weird Quote Link to post Share on other sites
