    Lazy bait sesh tomorrow up the Warren and with water levels high will be up in the timber. But with clear water deep diving lures will work well.

    Hoping to get another Cod and next time I get one it will be going on the brag mat coz it sucks having to take photos of them in the water when fishing solo.

    But this one time a school of silver perch swam through at Nappers Bridge. Caught ten all the same size as this.

    Softy reacted to Tinker in Long gone Shimano Symetre reels are back   
    Just checked and my Symetre is a 1500.

    Bought it years ago and looks a bit worn on the outside but all internal components still work smooth as silk.

    Another good low priced Shimano reel is the Sedona.

    Got a few Sedonas from 1000s to 4000s on my heavier rods for freshwater natives and I think they are the ducks nuts.

    And you can't beat the 10 year warranty on all Shimano reels from the Siennas up.

    Those reels really punch above their weight.

    This was a Symetre 2500 matched up with a Raider 1-4kg rod.

    Just watched Korean cook's video where she used rock salt to 'grind' out the tentacle cups.
    This will be tonight's dinner, with some smoked ST for entree. I spoil my wife.

    I used to have a Red Gomuku and loved it until it ended up on the bottom of the gulf.
    I could have a rig on it and catch whiting then a quick change to a big plastic and start bringing up 10kg Snapper (before the ban)

    Ok guys and HBT I went into tackleworld. They were out of the rapala sling tackle bag out of the shimano one . I did however buy a Diawa shoulder bag small light should do the trick . Hopefully in the coming weeks I’ll be back

    Have you looked at Kmart and such? Surely they would have a bag to suit.

    Head to SFS,Rays or Port adelaide tackle and grab some Diawa RPM Cranks while you can. Once those stores run out of current stock that is it apparently.

    I'd expect the OSP is better tuned, but I can tell you the knock offs I use have a great action and catch fish. I've not yet tried on YFW but I've painted a couple up for the next session.

    I've not used an OSP but i dare say with those being the pinnacle of bent's it will be different. I'm sure if you work the Berkley right you will get fish... i even managed to

    Hi all,
    So just got back from the holiday manged two salmon one 38cm and the other 40cm off the rocks and a small fiddler ray probably round 60cm
    I caught three small flatty's and some kgw whiting mostly bloody trumpeters but I managed a couple of salmon trout and a mullet off the shore.
    I also managed my first flatty on a small savage gear pencil lure which was exciting as this was the first time I had used the lure so I didnt really know if I was using it correctly, all I did was rod tip down and slow wind then bam little flatty jumped on.
    Still beats adelaide fishing just a pitty there were heaps of trumpeters getting to the bait before the whiting.
    heres a couple of photos of the trip

    I've found its more of an issue with the 2 long feeding tentacles. Couple of rinses in water gets rid of most of the hard bits and a good fry till crunchy sorts out the rest.
