Nice one .... love catching the old gar fish , good fun and good chewing , great fun wading out with a offshore breeze behind you , in shallow water .

Adian , thay are great pictures........dont be surprised if you get a knock on the door from National geographic .

Really good reports matey, looking forward to more of them (yes us southerners love to fish ). The photo with a picture of your fishing rod and reel , is a great spot to fish , I can tell by the little wash (creek,stormwater) in the sand and the background . I wouldn't mind betting that at certain times mulloway would be caught there, as there always seems to be some species of fish in that area . Mullet , Bream , salmon trout , salmon, Tommies Flathead and silver whiting ...good spot . Might even meet up one day , Doobie and myself are on the south side cheers

Thanks for that Knackers I have read most of it and will now lay down and rest my eyes lol....lol It sounds like a great reel

I will PM you a bit later, as busy atm ..... but yes biggest tommies I have ever seen and no problems filling a 20 ltr bucket ....but I always stopped after catching 20 or 30 as heaps enough for me and the smoker .... cheers

Great report Matey, That is a fine fish , I have fished down that area a lot ,over the years , and the Salmon can be a bit hit n miss , but when they are on , specimens like your beauty , are great fun . Also down that way I know of a spot where , you can get large TOMMIES , especially this time of the year ...PM me if you are interested . Looking forward to your next report . Beware of the old man , I am sure he is keen for the equaliser lol

Fin-or I would suggest , easy on the back pocket and strong as ........ a good reel for hard fighting fish

I love the last picture....reminds me of some of the sunsets in the desert. ....miss the quiet life .

Looks yummo....... I LOVE SEAFOOD......my phone must have been on charge ,i never had an invite.....DAMN...lol

I like The lure holder , I will be making one very soon, and a good bag for fishing...I like a lot CHEERS

I think the cold ...wind...and rain is keeping everyone inside.....and I dont blame them I would love to be on the water but to cold .

Wow that looks great .....MASTER CHEF..... very nice , and hope you are on the mend matey

I think they are a great table fish , just need to clean soon after caught yummo

Tom........ yes very simialer but not the same .......and not being an expert ,I have caught a lot of zebra fish over the days ....years...lol There was a lot of the ZEBRA fish around Port Noarlunga jetty and Rapid bay , but I am going back a bit .

I think you are on the money there o2

Maybe its one of these CHIEF

Sorry Barney its not a luderick ......I am no expert but thinking it might be a striped boarfish .......???

Being a first post or second post , on this site I believe you will get limited returns ....in saying this I hope you do well with the information that you are seeking ......CHEERS

That is unreal.....a pity to all farmers who lost stock...just goes to show how powerful water is in volume.....great shots ....and I bet you will have to travel to the other side of the island to catch your trout ...when the season is open .

Unreal matey ....love your work........great shots..........One of those pics ...I reckon I have awoke at times with something very similar....and the missus was working.........

Just have to add , I also have had abui s ,7000......9000......yes the swedish older models , and they were great , I brought a abu 7000 awhile back and although it is marked with china ...I have had no complaints with it .......and have caught some nice snapper with it.....cheers and going back 35 years ago lol..lol I reckon one of the best reals were the MICHELLS .......

Interesting topic , I have a Power rod one piece ,13 foot surf rod , I have had it for years and looking at the rod it states , ROD MADE BY LEN BUTTERWORTH ..........a very nice rod of the beach for salmon and casting etc . I have heard that there is also the same rods ....with the markings....MADE FOR LEN BUTTERWORTH ......of less quality .....why when on a good thing change it by sending it over seas to gain more profit.....???......and lessen the quality .

I will say Shimano 4000oc I haven't got one any more , but after reading this post have ordered one online , have caught some great fish on these reels ....... Don't remind me of good fishing gear , please , as my wallet tends to lighten...... ​

All4adventure is a top show,cant get enough of it lol ......
