My first I remember waking up at 3am and my dad driving down to outer harbour break water And my dad first stopping at the cockle machine at the servo on the way Not another car on the road we walked for a long time and the sun was just coming up and all these seagull started smashing the water Salmon busting up whitebait The old man grabbed some chrome and we were on had a ball I said to my dad a couple of years ago remember that day them fish were massive And he said son they were only around 700gram Talking about crashing my childhood memory that’s dad

GNSS’s Party Bus Has Started

As far as I know possession is only for King George Whiting 75 fish per person, 150 fillets that’s a lot of fish I don’t think I’ll ever have to worry about that one http://www.pir.sa.gov.au/fisheries/pdf_equivalents/king_george_whiting_rule_changes

Just wondering what works for people and how do you keep your fish or filletsThis the way I keep fillets I lay the fillets on a freezer bag, then another bag, and so onI can pick up individual fillets if I want, depending on how many fillets are neededI’m always looking for new and better ideas I haven’t got one for crabs? They take up a lot of room in the freezer

That’s Ranger I think you covered every thing there There is one thing I should add If you are out in your 12ft tinny with your family this summerEnjoying yourself and catching a few garfish or pulling up delicious Blue SwimmersAnd a big Bitey Starts circling your boat or choking on your outboard Pull the pin or cut the Achor rope and head straight back in and put a 4sale sign on it Go buy a carton of beer sit down and watch the cricket and then give your wallet to your misses because it’s going to cost you some retail therapy :dry:

As some people have compared snakes with sharks let’s got have a look at thatAll snakes are protected species in Australia Yet if there is a snake in your backyard and it was no threat to anyone you would let it be or if you’re in the city call a pest remover (exterminator)But if your family or lets say child looked like they were in danger you would hit with a stick, boom and shovel till it stopped moving and as far as a know that is widely accepted In fact if you or your child have be bitten the doctor would like to see the snake preferably deadSo let’s go back to sharks

I have also heard that talcum powder works Haven’t tried it my self

Some very good points of view have been raised and I don’t think there is or ever will be a right answer I have only seen on white so far last year and it was only around 3.5m but I could not get over the size of is stomach (girth) it was massiveIt hung around for around 20-30mins doing figure 8s at the back of the boat came within 6m of the back of the boat It never broke the surface and if it was a bit darker or more choppy I probably wouldn’t have see itEven thou I felt safe in the boat it still made the hair on the back of my neck stand up for a while (felt like was being siz

Just stay away form that other web site highfly don’t waste your time You have found the best fishing forum site, really no need to go anywhere else

There’s always a chance for snapper But more likely to get some salmon and sweep

Just jokes nev, not a dig

Ok Nevs DiaryWindy well at least till your teeth are rattling in the back of your scullRain and Hale tile you have to take up smoking to survive the nightAnd hope the hell they don’t fall in the drink or you hope the car cigarette lights works to unfreeze the fingers or at least your head lightsAnd you have to be able to count to 30+ lolCome to think of it you don’t need a Diary, just some Help lol

Took to long for the invitation there Ranger to your knitting circle So had to start my own, it was that or Yard Duty, the Misses said, well it feels like a knitting circle watching footy just can’t get excited. Opti all I can say is were is an Almamac when you need one, LOL 20 Knot Winds ok for some

At the moment I’m open to suggestions Ranger always looking at new hobbies, train spotting and stamp collecting don’t sound that bad, I’m not really into stats but if this weather keeps up you never now

Well said guys I think in a nut shell the Almanac has its place like any fish Mag, something to read whileYou have nothing better to do, like today one would be handy (bored) that’s always a handy spot catch up on a read In the boat I tend to do well at the change of the tide or deeper grounds dodge tide worksI think it’s because all the there little critters come out of there little hidey holes to playAlso from a high to low pressure change is also a good oneBut shore base tides are the key, different areas work on different tides (try fishing at Pt Parham on a low tide) lol

I drool over any boat and the volume increases the bigger the boat getsThe other week I took the boy to Garden Island for a walk and it was blowing a bit And at that point in time all I wanted was a yak lol I have to agree it’s all about attitude, it’s not really about going out and catching your bag limit of fish every trip in my case, but that might change if a was travelling 100 odd km’s I take my lad out just about every weekend, we tend to only go for whiting and we try a couple of new grounds every trip and we are happy coming home with ½ a dozen fishThat keeps

Hi Opti I think we all know how you feel fishing around Adelaide And if I had the money to buy a 35 footer I would be there I myself have had people Achor around 10m to 15m behind my boat just about dropped the Achor on my prop Like you said you spend the time find the spot then burly up just to have someone spoil the night or day for youHad another bloke a couple of months back, go flying past at around full speed missing my Achor rope buy around 1m, it was very close and there were no other boats around for kms And yes you are cruising over a lot of fish, as we all do But it sounds like you

Top effort on squid, love the vidThose squid were getting some great air time You could always use a net, they ink in the net not over you But that would take the fun out of it and not make a very good vidFishing on weekdays – 1 karma

Your are right sandy you could show him you gps track to prove it, but if the wont to ping you they willThe other grey area is proximity I have seen people crabbing on a boat and they don’t have to be in the area as long as the nets are tagged the pro boat of Adelaide goes for miles away from there nets yet on a jetty things are different, rules for someAnd what if a have a real big boat sandy

I think there are some good points both sides of the fence, good topic southie I have to agree if it really gets under your skin just call fishwatch But Fishwatch would only make the guy aware of the regulations I think they are more interested in someone going over there bag limit in crayfish, abalone or snapper Not so much as a guy standing in the rain with 2 rods and a couple of hand lines, while his wife and kids are sitting in the car or just going to get a hot pie and a cup of coffee while he minds there gearNot saying that happened in this case or that’s even rightBut lets say yo
