  1. That's a massive sambo there mate.Would have been awesome to catch on a fly rod.Is that a 10 weight.Welcome to the site
  2. sold a few of them in my older days. Most blokes were pretty happy with them. One mate of mine took one up north and put it to test on some bigger species. Lets just say it needed some repairs when it came back. I'd say they would be suited for fish under 10lb and suit about 10-15lb braid.Great fun to play with in the shop.
  3. Now thats what i call fresh.I remember catching a few flatties up at streaky.About 2 hours later i was cleaning them. I was scaling one and he came to life. It freaked me out as i was trying to gut mim and he kicking all over the place.
  4. Yes well done boys.You've got my attention and respect too.
  5. My mouth is watering right now!!Cheers for the recipe..... too many new ones to try
  6. Sounds very nice the coconut crabs.We've experimented with lots of different flavours but haven't tried the old coconutus.I love chilli flavours and i reckon the old lime goes alright with it.I'll have to cook up both styles and do a comparison.Good work ranger {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif
  7. I fired up the BBQ the other day and tried it again. Bloody good.James boag is a suitable substrate. I personally recommend coopers sparkling on a hot day.A spa will work equally as well as a pool as long as you can fully submerge to clean crab shells from your hair
  8. hey welcome ranger and thanks for your input already!Yes we are pretty relaxed here.Freedom of speech is important to us all and that is why we get on forums.Try not too swear too much as sometimes we have some young folk on here.I think you still say shit, poo, crap and bloody when ever you want.But words like fuck and cunt are definately not allowed but we all can fill in the blanks if we need to.very little rules here.Treat people as you would like to be treated by them
  9. hey finatic it's about time someone spoke up. I've been on both sides of the counter when it comes to cockles or pipis. I like cockles when i'm targeting whiting.When they are $7 to $10 a kg i will be very carefull how i use them now.You cant blame the bloke behind the counter... ( he doesn't set the price)You cant blame the cockle diggers/ suppliers ( their prices are governed by quotas, fees and availability.)If you like cockles and want to use them..... expect to pay $10 a kg from now onIf you dont want to pay $10 a kg, try another bait because cockles will never go down in price again.
  10. gday deswelcome to the site.they are some ripper yellowfin whitingI'd be happy catching a few KG's that big.Well done {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif
  11. Since this is such a good prize......I think we could offer the prize to the best fish caught on a social day......It would encourage us to get together again.....And can we open it to all moderators aswell I think we deserve to be in it also!
  12. Hey i'm willing to teach you Shane or anyone. I don't know heaps of knots but i'll teach anyone who want's to know.When are you leaving Shane?The 70lb leader on 50lb main line will be perfect.The bimini twist is a very rewarding knot when you tie it right.Just for the record.... I'm not an expert.. People like Yak and finatic crap all over me for knot knowledge.
  13. Hey mate.The big advantage of wind on leaders is that they make a tiny knot when you join them to your main line. This means you can cast them through your guides and wind them back through your guides. If you use a joining knot like a uni to uni and use heavy jinkai it makes a chunky knot which will catch or clang though your guides. To join a wind on you will need a bimini. If you dont know it it i will do it for you.What is your main line.... Eg Braid in lbs?????and what pound leader do you want to run????
  14. welcome to the site sad dad. I'm guessing you like live bait for snapper
  15. That is the ugliest Snapper i have ever seen Drawn. Great fish but bloody ugly.
  16. Spotted Srick's head in there a few times.The more i read the mag the better it gets.I'm loving it.Excellent metro report from Yakattack too.Everyone should rush out and buy a copy. You wont regret it.
  17. welcome to the site pearlaLooks like you will have some good pics to contribute in the Snapper section too.
  18. I'd tell those rent-a-cops to lick my nuts.That sucks.I hope we bump into the same guys when we have our social day.Give them a bit of a strike and hook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  19. i have it at my shop. I got it today. Shane delivered it personally. I havent had time to read it all properly but i am very impressed. Lots of great stories and lots of new great photos. I was a little sceptical thinking that it would be sub standard. I was extremely wrong. the mag is well produced and edited. It's about time we had a new and fresh mag to read. Well done Shane 9/10
  20. I offer my sincerest apologies to anyone i may have offende by using that word. I was stupid in my choice of words. No offence was intended.SorryFred {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/e
  21. @ Turkel Mulloway are a very elusive fish to catch. Good anglers land a few in their life time. If some one is gonna claim they catch heaps well i wanna see proof too.Bragging is far more effective with proof.I'm not saying the dude isn't catching them.... but it sounds fishy to me?????AS for calling someone a dick after you have only just signed up?.... What's with that?????.... are you looking to make friends or enemies on this siteWe are all pretty relaxed here and don't want anyone called dicks.Chill out manI'm backing Cal on this one.

    What a good bloke your husband must be for letting you clean his shed on a 39 degree day..
  24. When i was a little fella i was fishing from the rocks at Elliston with my dad. We were catching a few fish as i was eating a packet of twisties. i put a big twistie on my hook and casted it out much to the disgust of my dad. A minute later a big bang bang on my surf rod. I pulled up a massive sweep. Still the biggest one i've ever caught.My next story is on of my dads mates has just come back from KI. He says he's discovered the best bait ever for the big Bream. He was pulling small Bream all day but the big ones wouldn't take anything. He pulled some Metwurst out of his sandwich and put it o
