how many after a rinse of a reel, spray wd40 on everything? ive done it before, and its not hurt the line of stopped fish from biting.my bro in law when he chases snapper in the boat, scales the tommy bait he uses... im like,,,," dude.... what are you ding?" his reply was the snapper like it better...ITS A FISH... THEY HAVE SCALES ON IN THE WILD...but for some strange reason, he catches fish...and does very well with scaled bait.

dont know the rod off hand, but a lot of people bag jarvis walker... i dont know about the reels, but ive got a jarvis rod in 8ft, and that has been bent over pretty far for 45 minutes pulling a stingray in... and it held up well..

love the rocks.....love the beaches.....tolerate the jetty, either at 5am of 10 pm when its empty.

i can also gaurentee not everyone hears about all the trips i do...for instance, who knows ive just got back from a fish, and had a fish last night?prob 2 or 3 people...did i catch anything and how big were they?? who knows....but for the record, this forum hasnt heard about every fish trip ive done... if its a good trip with some nice catches, then maybe it will be posted along with fish... is it bragging? TOO RIGHT IT IS....if it wasnt bragging there would be no reports from anybody.and i can safely say the last 2 trips havnt produced any fish...yeah i talk a lot... and as suggested, maybe i

excellant....tell me though... at them deapths, can you actually feel a bite? would most certainly be a long haul up with a big fish on

NOT EVEN FOR AN INSTANT.people have drowned in them waters, just by turning around and getting pummeled by a rouge wave.locks well can be very dangerous at times.... the wave you dont see can slam you up against the sharp cliff face in an instant, and unless you have a tight grip, when it recedes, your going with it, as well as all of your fishing gear...many a rod, reel, tackle and everything else you take down there has just disapeared never to be

weaver, if ever your up this way, you too are more than welcome to come for a fish....the rock is free for you...fishyfish and samantic summed it up pretty well.im on a couple of corvette forums, both in ausralia, and by far the most friendliest is the one which like this, veers off track sometimes... hell thats what makes it interesting.the other forum is based in nsw, and my oh my dont sydney people love themselves to pieces and chastise anyone who veers off topic.i just cant be bothered with that, and havnt visited it for around 5 mths now, but the other forum ima daily contributer. a few m

sandy i think del was refering to snappermainias black hair and asking if he got inked...

bigash wrote: yeah i said the same thing, and it was thought that they were old pics...if they are old, before the limit we have now came into effect, they must be old photos for sure...so if there old, they would have been pretty easy to come across so many large in the old days.if its a new photo, then somebody may be double dipping.

I can give you a discount on these rocks AND you can keep it!!Throw a line straight out from the light house at Pt Lowly at a low tide about 4.00am and you are in for a chance of a nobber. They seem to come in close here under the cover of darkness looking for food from the rip.Don't tell Nev. LOL!!heheheh. BELIEVE me... ive tried that,,, and tried it often....have got a few pannies, but nothing like the fish i get at my good spot.

Highfly wrote: can i sell you a rock perhaps?it will be next to my rock, but may not be the rock you have to stand on , but will be one very similar...you cant take it with you, as i plan on selling it again after you leave.but feel free to take a photo of your rock.all jokes aside, the bloke catches snapper. IF the photos are from a long time ago, hell i can get hold of the same kind of photos AND video of where i fish when 25lb snapper were caught EVERY day... and not just one of them either.most ive seen is 14 snapper over 20lb in one morning, and a local bloke landed 9 one morning, and no

maybe the bag and boat limits dont apply if you run a course... yeah right.. not a smart move putting pics of so many snapper on a website...maybe i should sell somebody a place on the rocks...

like funky chicken said... ITS VERY addictive when you start doing up a rod.ive not built one from scratch yet, but have tore down the threads and re did them on 3 rods so far.first couple i borrowed a rotator, then went and bought a bbq spit rotator from the hardware shop... cost me 40 bucks, and 20 minutes of knocking up a frame to mount it.a few rollers, and someway to put tension on the thread, and your away.its tedious work, but surprsingly fun... makes the day fly by thats for sure. no sooner do you start, and dinner is on the table in the evening.and the satisfaction of landing a fish o
