Barney replied to fred's topic in Bait & Tackle
wow osprey, you are a dedicated fisherman if you are using squid testicles, to catch whiting, those suckers must be small, might have to try some out myself one day... :shock: -

there are some crazy americans who go fishing for thresher sharks out of kayaks, now that is mad...... any rod holders on that yak?
-
I have been reliably told no one has ever been attacked whilst sitting on a kayak by a shark...... Nice yak butters, where did it come from?

have caught snapper on jig before and been hit plenty of times with plastics, have tried squid shaped plastics with plenty of hits just haven'y managed to hook one yet

I think the reason i like fishing was delivered to me yesterday, fathers day. Took the three kids and wife down to west lakes in the afternoon, set up the two nibble tip rods, baited up and cast out. Sat in the sand with my two daughters sitting on my lap and my son sitting next to me. First rod dips and line takes off, my two year old daughters expression is one of amazement. i give her the rod and she is connected to her first legal bream and first ever fish. we land it and let it go with a few squeals of excitement from the kids and rebait and cast. Second rod dips and my seven year old son

Not wierd but i have caught fresh water trout on gents before. Both rainbows and browns. Thanks for that tip too yakattack n'tacklerat......

Hey guys, i want some indication of numbers of people who go kayak fishing, what sort of craft they are using and where they mainly go..... Trying to convince the wife that it is a good idea for me to buy a kayak so i can get fitter and go fishing all at the same time. Sounds good in principal anyway. Have looked at Ocean kayaks Prowler elite 4.5 but it is damn expensive and looks difficult to manoeuvre in skinny water, open to all suggestions. Thanks

You boys are on, i'll have a crack..Just got to work out who is going to swim my bait out off the beach... Are you busy Fred? What about you Butters....... Hmmm big toothy on hand line, gonna be fun...

At this point, a legal mulloway would be good, A kingy from coffin bay, tuna from port lincoln or port mac, a big bronzy in the surf and a snapper over eight kilo.......Just my wish list for this year

??????????Whats your fishing style?????????????
Barney replied to The Guru's topic in General Fishing
My favorite fishing style these days is walking down onto Almonta beach, light overhead casting rod, bumbag full of 18-20 ga lures and a pair of polaroids on my head. The sun is just beginning to rise and an awesome scene unfolds before me. Huge schools of Australian Salmon well within casting range as far as the eye can see. Hook on tat first lure and send out the first cast. Three winds of the handle and the rod buckles under the weight of a healthy salmon. The fight lasts for several minuters and the fish finally lays flapping at your feet, the sun now shines off the chrome bullets glisten -
Note to self, Don't use fingers as hook or lure keepers, and if i do keep pliers and bandaids handy......

Mmmm only smurf i would eat would be smurfette.... I bet she is all blue too. might even taste like fish.......
