    Tonka got a reaction from SaltyFlyer in waist bucket for fly line when surf fishing   
    Hi guys,
                 I bought one of the William Joseph belts (same as the one pictured above) probably 3 years ago and it has come in handy.  
    I wouldn't head out without one now.  
     
     I got it from the U.S., possibly an ebay store, but with shipping to Aus it was more like $65-$70 aus, but it did get here very quickly.
    The mesh bag rolls up into the belt and completely hides till you need it.
     
    If I knew about the Thomas training step option for $5, I think I might have given that a go first. 
     
    I like that

    Tonka got a reaction from breambo25 in YFW on fly?   
    Hi BB, I did have one fun afternoon down there on fly a couple years ago and haven't been back for some reason. You just reminded me.This spot up from the walk bridge was good on an incoming tide, and the fish seemed to be coming in with the water.None were legal, but the bigger ones have to be close by I guess.Wading up to the knees, you could see 4 or 5 fish fighting to get the fly first and resulted in quite a few hookups. I just threw these two small flies on and they worked on the day.. Still have to try these worm imitations out down there, and holidays coming up soon so I might have to give it a go.. Good luck..

    Tonka got a reaction from Rickster in Prefered Purchased Bait   
    Whitebait when I go bait fishing for bream, but I salt a few packs down too and pack in glad bags for outings. Seem to stay on the hook better for me, and you can get a few taps before checking.

    I've got the Hornes and they haven't let me down yet (touch wood)I thought I heard last year they may have been cheaper from the factory? but not 100% sure on this.. (local company) Give them a quick call.They do offer custom fitting for a few $$'s more according to the website. Horne's Waders Good Luck..
