Well yesterday when I was floating around in the middle of the gulf without any food on the boat my mind was thinking about food 99% of the time and fishing 1 % of the time. I caught a nice rugger and visualized it turning into a delicious crispy skinned Thai dish. I almost had to turn the bilge pump on I was salivating so much. Anyways I looked up a few recipes which were all confusing and normally required loads of different ingredients. So here is my simple Crispy skinned red curry - Free range snapper. Ingredients - See photo - Valcom authentic Thai red curry paste - 1 lime - 1 R

Glad you enjoyed it mate. Yeah I recon it tastes better cold especially when you wash it down with a cold tin. Cheers

Smoked some tuna today. Here's my simple recipe. Tastes good with a cold beer. 1/2 cup of salt 1/2 cup of brown sugar 2 teaspoons of dried oregano Squirt of soy sauce Dash or Chilli powder 2 litres of water approx Tuna as much or as little as you want. Adjust ingredients accordingly. METHOD: Place sugar,salt,oregano,soy and Chilli into a container and dissolve with hot water. Once dissolved add enough cool water to cover tuna. Add tuna to brine solution and refrigerate for 5 hours. Once 5 hours is up smoke it.

Yup I put them out in the sun.

Mmm been making sausage rolls for a while know. Great boat food.

No entries yet. The olé elusive mullie.

Can't go past berkley drop shots for value.

That's a stomper mullet good job lads.

If you are going to be fishing weighted baits I would be looking at something other then a Gomoku unless you are going to be lowering your baits with a down rigger. I have a red and a blue one that I love but use them solely for fishing unweighted baits, jigs or plastics. There are much better rods out there for bait fishing. Once you go graphite I don't think its easy to go back to fibreglass, I find the feel and sensitivity of a graphite rod to be far better than fibreglass. Yes different rods suit different occasions but I personally wouldn't consider a fibreglass rod for the majority of

Went down pretty quick haha. Early tomorrow hopefully doing an all day trip if the weather is decent enough. Hopefully get the downriggers into the water.

Nothing beats rolling out of bed at the beach grabbing a couple of fresh whiting, Tommy or whatever it is you desire fillets from the fridge and cooking them up with a simple coating for breakfast. I like to use Tandaco coating mix as its a simple effective way to coat fish with minimal mess and fuss. Once the fish has been fried place it between to pieces of fresh white bread, drizzle with lemon and enjoy.

Squid are still in abundance but that is all I'm consistently catching at the moment. I have been trying my inshore northern grounds for reds without much success. Haven't noticed any boats lining up on the edge of the shipping channel so cant be to much happening there. Water temp is starting to rise but is still pretty cool.

Nice fish and good quality photos mate. Makes me very keen for this season.

x2 for sashimi I love it filleted, skinned, cut into small thin pieces and dipped in soy sauce mmmmm. Did some sashimi blue morwong the other week and that to was sensational. ( It has to be caught that day though )

There seems to be a lot of good reels and rods out there that doesn't make decisions easy lol. I think 6 ft 6 will be ok as I already have a shorter dedicated jigging combo. How is the casting ability of the ocean joggers ?

Cheers mate I'll have another look at the torsa. Think it was the weight that put me off them.

Hey Crew Looking at getting another overhead combo for the start of summer to target a range of species including Tuna, Sharks, Kingies, Mulloway and anything else willing to take a lure, jig, live bait or dead bait. I have done a fair bit of research into different combinations and weighed up the positives and negatives of spin verse overhead with the overhead combination winning out due to being more versatile IMO. In the past I have rushed into buying rods and reels and as a result have ended up with a decent collection but one that is more suited to targeting individual species with l

Awesome work mate.
