  1. spot on booma it would work really well if the big ones had to be released and little ones not.

     

    in saying that... its illegal to release them same as carp lol. everything is becoming illegal in this state. soon ill get arrested for farting in public😂😂😂 gee wizz id be a repeat offender😂😂

  2.  

    i here ya bud.

     

    eggs are how it all started in St Clair.

    rumor has it they where not put there by people. with constant egg hatchlings and bigger reddies being added by idiots all the time i cant see any issues.

     

    remember there a pest

     

    the only way they will get really small/non existent is if the council decides to clean it out. but even then those eggs will keep showing up.

     

    solid reddies are still caught in st clair today

     

    great fun

    I know for a fact that there's people catching 10 in an hour, but returning them because the water they live in probably isn't awesome so many don't wanna eat them.. Like you said, still plenty of biggens and will be a good spot for a while because they breed quickly and the council is unlikely to attempt clearing them out. For now, they're an excellent source of fun :P

    i hope there not throwing them back lol

  4. I started with street directories, but modern technology is amazing

    I wrote a post a long time ago on here about doing your own legwork to find freshwater spots. I don't have the patience right now to sit down and search through pages of my own posts, but that search button up in the top right hand corner of the page will net you plenty of spots with the most basic of searches.

     

    The other bonus to going out and exploring is that you get to know the look of areas and you can pick spots up just by looking at posts other people make, if they are kind enough to include photos in reports.

     

     

    Also any spot that has Redfin will have "Good" fish. Spots that are not heavily fished will have a better ratio of good fish to small fish. Heavily pressured spots (read Easy and well known spots) will have huge numbers of small fish (<20cm) to every good fish (>35cm). As you can imagine, spots that hold high numbers of "Good" fish are not the spots that are generally shared openly and regularly on public forums. Spots like St. Clair, for example, now the word is out, will see diminishing returns of Good fish, and increasing captures of smaller fish and I wouldn't mind betting within the next two years it will be a wasteland of palm sized redfin with very few bigger fish.

     

     

     

    I'm not having a go at anyone or anything, Just some points to keep in mind when it comes to asking for spots, and freshwater fishing in general.

    hey champ are you aware how the reddies get in St clair?

     

    lol fish it all u want they wont be dissapering .

  5. intresting i use 3.5 gram jags out the boat sometimes in 4mtrs of water no issues.

    if im fishing deeper and if the weather is playing up i will go heavier.

    in saying this i use hand lines out the boat.

     

     

    on the jetty i use a rod slow start and stop retrives with twichtes in between.

     

    one time i threw out my jag and i was like why is it floating🤔🤔 lol on closer inspection the 3.5gram lead weight fell out😆😆

  6.  

    Just wait going to get razor fish 4 bait burley and eating next week, I hope.

    We got heaps of big Razor fish when helping my mate on his Oyster lease over at Smokey bay ,he got me to soak the razor fish hearts in tank water overnight , they double in size , then after sitting in salt water for an hour or 2 , then do the pickling . YUMMO

    Did someone say pickled razor fish🤗🤗🤗🤗

    yummo was my favorite as a kid growing up.😆

  7. Only ever done snooking behind the boat with leaded lines. Am now informed that method is old fashioned and you use beaked lures??. Can someone please inform as to what I should be using in 40 foot of water. How far behind the boat do you use them? Speed the same?

    my grandfather gave me the leaded line set up. ive never used it as i dont know how. im a fan off trawling in 6mtrs of water with daiwa double clutches or rapala x factors nice and slow one just off the wash and one just in. works well.

  8. thanxs guys😆and once again a big thanks to bjorn ,strike hook and most importantly ADORE TACKLE for putting up these great prizes.

     

    i can guarantee that reel will be doing some hard work once in my hands😅😅

     

    i had a look at adore tackles video on the reel...looks great..as did there website.

     

    cheers once again and much appreciated☺
