well that aint exactly a surf rod mate... for surf fishing you want a mininum 10' rod. i have 3 x 12' w/ spin combos and an alvey on a 13'.what you are looking at is just a heavier action general purpose set up..

crab fisherman, pelicans, asians and some european guy. all benefited from our carp the other night.

sad to hear mate. my condolences to you and your loved ones. seems he was a top aussie bloke. ill crack a beer and give him a nod in respect.

so, where are some more good weekend away camping areas. close to the water basically.. walking distance from camp to fishing area = a bonus.. as softy and i do enjoy a beer ;)im from west coast sa.. softy is victorian.. and neither of us know too much about the local area.. but we do enjoy a trip away and love to get out there when we can.

rocknev wrote: no dramas mate! i know how hard it is to find a good spot unspoiled by others! and the last thing you needed was 4 guys camping there all weekend!!! might as well mark it with a huge X :)when the fish are there.. they will bite.. where ever you are.. ive taken softy and a few others to one of my all time favrouite spots.. and 2/3 trips its fired.. the other was dead fishing all day.. but thats fishing..

Karma point your way Liam, well said.the Pious attitude of many vedgoes and vegans just sh1ts me to tears at times. they claim beef industry contributes to global warming etc.. but do they actually accept the decaying plant matter on the floors of rain forests contributes far more???i mean dont get me wrong... i LOVE vegetarian food....IT GOES GREAT WITH A STEAK!!!!!!

post up a copy of your letter!and congrats!

your old boy damian???we just left the rocks this mroning.fished all weekend for ntohing!!!

i agree with VB!an old alvey with some modifications made! that handle sure would give you some crank power!
