southie THE BANGA

Mate try fishing wholesalers down at Lonsdale...

wilson livefibre blades and tails 1-3kg is an awesome rod indeed... i have mine matched up to a stradic ci4 1000 with 2lb fireline

Gday southie, lol, good choice theyre a good rod - you cant have mine but try the "got one" chain....That's where i got mine....Or just give them a call and get them to order one from "wilson".....Cheers

joining safwaa is a great idea but if you're after a feed they are catch and release only as far as I am aware. Perhaps not for Redfin though, being that they're a pest.K2L, one of your best bets is going to be heading to a few private properties, knocking on the owners door and asking very nicely if they would mind if you had a fish in their streams, dams etc. This is how you'll access the some of the best areas (as most of them are privately owned).A friend and I used to drop letters into peoples mail boxes when we wanted to hunt on their property explaining who we were, what we wanted to do and assuring that we were environmentally conscious and would leave their properties in better condition than we found it. Usually we'd get a phone call and permission within a day or two.

Someone here might have a connection ;)How many people do ya reckon might be interested in getting a calendar? Add a thankyou to this post so we can get a bit of a gauge of interest.I'll have a look at one of my printers and see how the pricing looks for certain quantities.Is a great idea too Bass13 I've been hanging back just to see what other people thought before getting into it.

I used to have a tackle box, then that got huge lol. Then I had a RAPALA thing with big trays in it and cool pockets and a shoulder strap... I liked that, but when I was a good 12-18 months without a boat I got smart and started taking a backpack. then I started to NOT take everything including the kitchen sink with me :cheer: So now I have an assortment of tackle trays and have big ones than remain home and try to take only essentials. (Try )Same as rods, I used to cart around up to five rods... for just in case lol. Like a 2-4 kilo bait rod, a 2kilo sp rod, a 6-8 kilo heavyish rod, plus a 6kilo plastics rod and a heavy overhead for floating a balloon :ohmy: Now though, I generally only take two rods (even in the boat). One heavy and one light.For the trip I.take only what I need for.the days target. IE, 6/0 hooks and little size six baitholder hooks. Upto say 5 snapper leads and a few 00 tiny sinkers. PliersNailclippers (for the braid)Tape measureLipgrippersCamera. Little box of.suitable plastics jigheads and HBs The only line I take is spare leader. The night before, im always carefully to pack light and.sensible, but.that backpack is always.a bit.heavier than it should be lol.BtW, it's cool to pack a v light backpack with lures only (soft&hard) a drink and a bit of leader for a trek out st Kilda, or on the flats or up a trout creek.... Awesome on foot with one rod in hand having a good ole crack

nice to finally meet you mate

10/10 to URH for helping out at the Rally this morning at Parliament House, and giving the talk he did, along with David Parnell and Mark Aldridge There was a decent turn-out of 150ish people, with a small convoy of cars and boats too.It may not be eneough to stop this SuperTrawler, but no-one can say we didnt try ;)As others have said, maybe bad timing detracted from the numbers who would have attended otherwise.Another " Well Done " to Jeff who's running with a facebook page regarding the trawlerIt was nice to meet JimboJames, Banga, and Dwayno from The Search for Patagonian Toothfish too, apart from the guys I already know.

Many I know will be going to or watching the footy (crows/swans) or other games.Why would you choose to run a rally in Adelaide at such a time?TB

so does division two winner win a prize

seen it happen before right before my eyes... alot more effective on the finiky squid at night in shallow water thats for sure Sebile splasher the way to go....

You know the sad thing is that as most of you would know by our pics and stories Chuck and I have fished this creek for over 8 maybe 10 years and we have had some fantastic sessions. During this whole period I could count on ONE hand the amount of fish I have taken, the rest have been lovingly returned as we truly appreciated what we had and enjoyed the fact that if we fished the way we did, we would have many similar days......and we did.This year however it has been different and we struggled to get fish consistently, the school was smaller and we feared that someone was working hard catching our friends the mulloway. This is honestly how we looked at this spot, it was an honour to be respected to fish this place and now some prick has taken away something we both cherished.To some this may be over the top and my emotions excessive but this place was dear to me and was my slice of paradise that I had enjoyed and looked forward to visiting.This prick who I do suspect in this case is a rec fisho but it is also being targeted by pro's has selfishly destroyed a school of fish to sit in a freezer and slowly rot.Whoever you are I hope you are truly satisfied with your efforts as once again a few greedy souls have ruined it for others to enjoy.There goes another spot, scratch out another of our dwindling assets, Im having similar problems with my snapper spot at Pirie. It really does make you wonder what some people have between their ears.I can guarantee that this spot will never return to its former glory....RIP

its people like that, that screw it up for everybody. it seems my chances of catching my first mully are getting slimmer and slimmer because of some greedy people. makes me so mad

Scumbags, marine parks will just hide a lot of this stuff Chuck i reckon as no one else will fish there other than the poacher

Got a call today from my son who was fishing one of our favourite creeks, they couldn't find one Mully, BUT! there were 15 heads of Mulloway, no bodies just heads, on the bottom that they could see :c who knows how many more where in the deeper water :c i'd really like to know how any marine park or any new rule is going to help fish stocks when the government can't even police the rules they have in place theres always some prick out there that will always kill as many as they can and take what ever they catch by what ever means they like :c NOT HAPPY JAN!

First Mod i did when i took ownership of the Paj...Allows me to stow rods fully rigged & a couple of spares slots for fishing buddies

nice work mate.... might have to crack mine out soon
