Looks like its shark season starting all over again

I can see your point there Aus if fishing from a beach. I wouldnt want 20-50lb mono or braid being dragged across me as I waded/swam' date=' by 2 metres of unhappy Bronzy ! Thats gonna hurt ! :ohmy: Probably a diferent scenario froma Jetty tho.[/quote']What's the difference between a bronzie or a big snapper or a big mully' date=' if that's all we're worried about? Not talking about this guy in particular, but you're gonna get that same scenario fishing for heaps of different species other than sharks.[/quote']None maybe UG, but lets face it, the sharks are the ones that get all the attention,

True, but of a BIG fish too ?maybe Im just chicken of busting my rod :whistle:

Thanks guys. Thinking about it some more tho, given the braids only 10lb aren't I asking for a big bust-off fishing with a tight drag ?Probably better to use a different style of hook in this scenario

Maybe if a polly or two walked under there it might bash some sense into them :whistle:

At night, fish on the edges of the light only.You'll find 9/10 that squid you can see wont touch a jag

Hi all.I seem to recall some time ago there was a discussion on when , how and where to use circle hooks.My question is, can they be used when drifting/floating a weightless bait out I dropped two good fish last night doing this.Both took line before I got to the rod. I cupped the spool both times to stop any chance of an over-run and to be sure the hook was set well as I struckI suspect part of the problem was having the drag too loose drag, rather than having it firmer and letting the fish hammer the bait until they are hooked.Mind you it was only 10lb line so didnt wanty a dead tight drag

Just noticed my typo saying I had three or four god headshakes

Yeah why not, after all most governments seem happy to double dip so theyve got the money to burn

Nice going JJ. Those Eagles are an awesome looking animal for sure Not too sure on lip gripping an Eagley though :ohmy: Might be easier holding it by the tail :evil: Bummer on the bust off though Good fish you think ? I thought u meant the eagle ray for a sec there Southie :PI guess your tub hasnt been launched yet

Launched at NH ramp with Rickster this morning well before the sparrows even thought of farting, and headed out for the OH channel edge, where wqw joined some 50 other boats jockeying for a spot on the channel edge.Soon after anchoring a blast from a cargo ships horn suggested someone had anchored in the channel yet again, and we could also see a nearby boat that was inside the channels edge by an easy 50 -75 meters No Red fish for us there apart from a pretty athletic Dogshark, and didnt see any taken so we moved to the JR area.Another Donut hapened there, but on the way back in we spotte

Hoping to have something to report after an early session sunday morning on the Red Fish
