A loss of 60% to 70% seems excessive. I use droppers a fair bit and use a heavier leader to compensate. (eg. 8lb braid and 15lb mono for the trace).I use 4 turns and lubricate and pull slow and get about 70% knot strength (30% loss).Otherwise if you are worried, use 3 way swivels or go up in trace strength.

Haven't been able to get onto the site for a week from home. Is there a server issue?Seems to work fine here at work.Caught some squid and a KGW 2 days ago from the yakGot a landbased flatty 50cm yesterday and some mullet and ST.

39cm flounder caught from the yak today. 300m offshore. 4/0 hook, pilchard bait.Deep fried till crispy and they are awesome eating, better than whiting

Still struggling. After a 1 month break from the yellowfin, I tried again the other day and only got 3. Good size upto 36cm but they are just not around. Don't think I will bother anymore.

Great Idea, I would be very keen.I did read the survey a while ago with interest.http://dspace.flinders.edu.au/xmlui/handle/2328/7289There is a large market for bait worms, but it is mainly a summer fishery and the majority of anglers searching for live worms are using them for yellowfin whiting.Winter fishing is a bit different and most keen anglers will be collecting their own bloowworms during the bloodworm run to freeze up.

Not really feasible in South Australia as you can only use 3 hooks on a line and it is a hassle to set. Plus we don't get favourable wind conditions often. Works in NZ as multi hook longlines are legal, then get offshore winds and beaches with nearby reef holding snapper.

Where have you fished before?What type of fishing do you do and what is your skill level? What do you want to catch?Are you interested in lots of little fish and plenty of action, or putting in lots of time for a chance of a legal fish but less smaller ones?What rod and reel do you have? No point buying an expensive rod and reel as it won't catch you any more fish if you don't know what you are doing.How far are you willign to travel?Are you willing to fish at night or in rough weather?There are many variables to consider before we can suggest some options.Learning to fish, westlakes is good as you will get plenty of bites and the occassional legal bream. Plenty of tommies off the metro jetties in the evening if you know how.One of the bigger species to catch will be salmon off port noarlunga jetty in winter during a storm but you will need to wait till at least autumn.Another tip I will give you is don't chase the rumors or reports and fish the same location for at least a dozen or two times. Any of the jetties will hold fish at the right time and although the learning curve is steep, plenty of good fish can be caught. You can bag on gar, tommies, YFW, and squid at the right time if you know what you are doing.Set your goals small at first. Tommies and squid are a good beginner target off the jetties and provide a good feed. Bream in westlakes are a good target to practice on.

My best catches of landbased gar and tommies have been overnight off the jetties. Same with snook.Porties is good for salmon after a storm. Dirty water also brings the KGW and flatties on the bite and within reach of landbased jetty anglers. I have caught a few KGW right off the end of Brighton after a blow. I have also heard of a few snapper caught after a storm off there as well But be prepared to fish between 8pm and 4am
