Pretty quiet on here lately, anyone fishing?
bjorn2fish replied to bjorn2fish's topic in General Fishing
I should be getting out this weekend for a salmon flick, fingers crossed, I haven't had much luck this season so far. We definitely need a homebrew tasting day... I mean Strike Hook Day -
G'day everyone. It's been pretty quiet on here lately. Has anyone been fishing? What's biting and where? I've been a bit crook the past week and catching up with work hasn't given me any time to get out a wet a line so I'm keen to get out there as soon as work calms down a bit. If you haven't been fishing, why not???

Woops, forgot the end date. The comps starts now and ends August 31st 2016. I'll edit above As previous comps, this is open to everyone, everywhere in SA, boat or land based. We need to see a report as mentioned with the details of your catch, measurements would be a good idea if you are aiming for the major prize.

METRO Whiting numbers are good with good catches coming from the Silt Grounds, The Largs Academy ground, Semaphore reef, Grange Tyre reef, West Beach has some nice size fish over 40cm. Snapper will also be around after this blow especially on the Star wreck and out from the Broadway. Squid are in big numbers down south around Marino, Brighton and West Beach when it's clear. A few Elephant sharks have been caught around the Grange area at night. Watch out for the spikes and they are great eating. Port river has plenty of salmon trout from the North Arm right down towards St Kilda and around nea

METRO With the water really stirred up there has been plenty of snapper caught at the Star wreck and surrounding areas. Norma wreck and Grange tyre reef also produce good snapper after these events as well, so it may be worth trying these areas. The broadway should also be worth a good look late in the afternoon Saturday. The rough weather is also a trigger for the whiting to school up and come on the bite. Best places to try is the Black Pole, Silt grounds, Semaphore reef, Grange tyre reef, West beach bag ground. Squid will be slow until the water clears but they should be taking lures in dee

Lip balm for wind knots in braided line - it works !
bjorn2fish replied to doobie's topic in How to guides and DIY projects
I don't know if braid can fuse, I assume it can. Probably just a super tight knot. It may have come out if I kept working on it but I was running out of time to go for a fish -
Lip balm for wind knots in braided line - it works !
bjorn2fish replied to doobie's topic in How to guides and DIY projects
I had a nasty knot and stupidly had a few more casts, it got worse and had to give up. I used another rod at the time. When back at home I decided to give the lip balm a go, it worked pretty well with a bit of picking at the knot. I got right to the last knot and couldn't get past it. Looking closely it kinda looked fused haha so couldn't get that bit out. Lip balm does work though, bloody great tip -

Who's braving the wet weather for a flick?
bjorn2fish replied to bjorn2fish's topic in General Fishing
I got up a tad too late so didn't do any fishing earlier and was expecting the weather to go down hill so didn't plan to head out later on. Well it got to me that the weather will be dodgy for a while so I headed out with no planning and thought I'd flick some plastics and squid jigs. I reckon I found Southie's squid spot Bwahahahaha. Already knew where it was but JEEEEZE the squid ink on a certain rock, had to be his exact spot One tentacle was all I could manage, I think I was snagged but may have just been a decent hit. Then it blew up a fair bit and I called it quits. -

bjorn2fish replied to bjorn2fish's topic in General Fishing
Was considering an attempt over the weekend even if pouring down. That may turn into me staying warm inside and drinking a couple frothies -
Anyone considering a fish over the weekend even if it's pouring down? Looks like Monday may be the windy day, rain possibly all weekend and the swell kicking up on Saturday afternoon.

METRO While this blow is really welcomed and it will stir the fish on especially the whiting and snapper. with the upcoming fronts this is a time where the shore base angler can really get into some decent fish. Outer Harbor Breakwater is the place to be this weekend as the big winds and swell will certainly mover fish in. Bait fish will shelter and big fish will be right behind. Friday and early Saturday will be the best for the boaties and there is plenty of whiting at the silt grounds and Black Pole. Salmon trout have moved into the Port River and with sheltered waters this will be fun. On

bjorn2fish replied to doobie's topic in How to guides and DIY projects
Might give this a go and see if it works for me. Might also try Keeno's method next time I'm fishing and get a knot. -
Mmmmmmm, bet that tastes great.

METRO King George numbers are looking like it's going to be a very good season with some nice fish up to 38 cms being caught near the black pole, silt grounds, Cabbage patch in the mornings, Norma, Semaphore and West Beach. There is still some good crab numbers coming from the St Kilda/Black Pole area and further south towards Semaphore. Squid are on the move with some good numbers being caught at Brighton, Marino, West Beach, Silt Grounds and near the Black Pole. A few small mulloway were caught of the breakwater near West Beach and some smaller ones from West Lakes. Salmon Trout are in good
