  1. Sucks to hear Chuck that's a fair whack of bad luck for the big fella. Hope ya kickin arse again soon Snaps.
  2. Used to see quite a few 50+ bream patrolling the pylons of most West Lakes foot bridges 10 - 12 years ago. Used to see schools of 30-40cm fish just hangin out then occasionally a beast that dwarfed them all would swim thru the school and scatter the lot of them lol was great viewing. Myself and Leethal were hitting up the entrance pipe area early one morning when a bloke pulled a monster on a whole pilly whilst mully fishin, easily the biggest bream ive ever seen the bloody thing took up nearly the whole bottom area of one of those frequently used crabbing tubs you see floating behind the rak
  3. HAHAHA the komodo has performed well squidding for 3 days, def put it thru its paces on those line burning squid lol, best be getting myself down to DF to grab a couple
  4. Only caught one but Bluefin tuna on 8-10kg threadline gear for me.
  5. Easy one,Berkley Gulp Turtle-back Worm
  6. Ask about them on breammaster? hahahahahaaha. Dig up some of the old posts on em on BM and you will see the heartache these little fellas have caused lol.
  7. +1 for the slim beauty if tied properly never had one go, have used it on tuna at wedge, mullies here, Gts n queenies in darwin and it has performed beautifully every time, as well as sliding thru the guides nicely even with heavier braid and leader.
  8. Sorry for speaking the truth and having no faith in our useless fishwatch system. Someone had to tell it how it is. My patience ran out regarding fish thieves years ago.
  9. Strike & Hook does not promote illegal behaviour. Tampering with another persons gear, whether they deserve it or not, is an offence. - Ugly
  10. SFS Cavan hands down, 95% of my freshwater lures come from 4 local lure makers.
  11. Heart breaking stuff i really feel for you guys knowing that your fave spot has been destroyed by some brain dead tool. Sad thing is it will only get worse and i just cant see how they are going to tackle it.It will only stop when there are no fish left.
  12. I have a couple of daiwa reels but mostly shimano as well as a lonely abu baitcaster. For some reason i prefer a shimano for 1000-2500 sized reels but anythin 3000+ i prefer the feel of a daiwa, dont ask me why lol just personal preferance i guess. I am very one eyed when it comes to luring rods tho lol.
  13. Yea i love them mate, have tried alot of bream rods too and have settled on the nitros coz i love a rod with a fast action and they look nice and plain but still classy lol. They are so bloody light too but still have plenty of grunt.
  14. If money no objective id be emailin Ian Miller lol, or a nitro 6' vapour, being a 2 peice and with the $60 insurance policy if you happen to snap the tip you can get a brand new top half for 60 bucks. Awesome rods for flickin tiny little bream and trout lures, easily my fave bream rods
  15. Check out some of the naming on some of the high end megabass breamin gear. Gay as haha
  16. Nailed these 2 couple weeks ago on the yorkes. Mine went 76 and me brothers went 72, great fun on the lighter gear.
  17. Should also add mate that there are much cheaper options that will do the job just as well too. Shimano stradics are pretty darn good too, me bro knocked over a 72cm kingy and an 80cm mulloway with his in the last couple of weeks with his and it has performed beautifully. They are only around the $220 mark.
  18. Sustain or luvias 4000
  19. The rivers here in gawler used to be (probably still are) full of them. Used to get heaps in the yabby nets when i was a kid. Would love to keep one in an aquarium to learn more about them.
  20. Awesome little fish they are. Believe it or not i caught one on a 35mm blade while fishing the port near the birkenhead, with Weaver one day a couple of years ago. Easily one of my most unusual captures. Reckon i still got pics of it somewhere as we both couldnt believe how it managed to get in there and that it hit a blade.
