"emergency water supply" 2L coke full frozen sea water for deep chill in fish slurry frames, crab shells & prawn shells minced up & Chicken pellets into burley logs to fit berley pot I need to stop being so tight & refreezing bait all the time Would like to go halves in big block IQF & small squid!

Fin nor lethal 100 rated top 4 in world by Alan Hawk
dutchy replied to newtontoney's topic in Bait & Tackle
He talked me into one as well I haven't caught anything bigger than 50 cm snapper on it I thought it felt undersize mainly use with downrigger live baiting Very happy might buy another one $125 for spare spool & parts -
Doing Christmas hams this year The only problem is smoked Squid Heads & Bait Fish Are So Tasty No Snapper Bait

Trust your nose as we evolved to dislike off smells The port has been a toxic waste dump since white man first sailed in there Great spot for getting bait & fishing for fun People will tell you that "resident fish change colour & others are ok" The same people will say West End is a top beer LOL

I was a awesome show

That makes sense Booma I am used to taking people on my boat that insist on using those snaps Then are surprised when they fail on the first big fish
-
Booma your rigs look good but I would cut off the crappy snap swivel Looks like the weakest link

On the 16 dec got tuna off Jarvis & Ale hooned back to work the afternoon shift

use one of those snapper style floats with the lead on the bottom tie a bit of wool on the main line to set the depth, check a knot site how to tie it. Let the float sit on a swivel to cast then tie ya leader to the swivel with a hook on it, a foot leader should do and it's then like having an un-weighted bait sitting in the water best of luck mate cheers chuck I have heard that is a good way to fish Goolwa for mullies
