  1. Definitely a couple of cracker shots there, Meppstas... You did a good job of capturing the crepuscular rays! Cheers af
  2. Thanks for that, Panga. $80 is probably going to have to get me a whole lot of Razorfish! The only reason I asked the question is that I finally tried Razorfish for the first time earlier this month and have now become hooked. Good luck on your most excellent adventure tomorrow (sorry I won't be aboard). Cheers af
  3. At my age Chief, any mechanical advantage is greatly appreciated... Cheers af
  4. Anyone know where I could buy Razorfish Tongs? Would prefer Adelaide metro, but would be more than happy to check out other options. Thanks in advance... Cheers af
  5. Interesting concept, sbarnden...thanks for the tip-off. Cheers af

  7. I note that this product was reviewed in "The Advertiser" yesterday, with mainly favourable comment: http://www.wilsonfishing.com/Products/Line/Zerek-LIne/Hy-Braid Has anyone here used this product, and if so, any pros/cons you'd like to mention? Cheers af
  8. Ningaloo station. Will you be in the area (its a big area) Nah, Knackers - I should be so lucky! I was up that way briefly in June this year (not fishing, unfortunately) and it looked like some prime fishing real estate, from what I could see. Be sure to post up some snaps and a report when you get back. Cheers af
  9. I picked up some Ling "eye fillets" at a certain western suburbs fishmonger this afternoon and had them for dinner tonight, fried in panko crumbs. They were certainly excellent on the tooth and brilliant value for money, but I can't find any reference online to what part of the Ling the "eye fillets" come from. They were a smallish cut compared to a usual side fillet. Anyone have any clues? Cheers af
  10. Love a bit of the old Spanish Mac, freshly caught and barbecued, but have yet to try it smoked - will be interesting to see how it goes, Knackers. By the way, I'm interested to know what others views are on the "fillet vs cutlet" argument. Cheers af
  11. Excellent feedback, Smiley For those who may not know, ASF is an acronym for what, exactly? Cheers af
  12. A couple of links you may find helpful, Knackers: http://www.fishingworld.com.au/news/the-kings-of-south-oz http://www.exploreaustralia.net.au/South-Australia/Eyre-Peninsula-and-Nullarbor/Coffin-Bay/Coffin-Bay/Fishing-spot Just be aware there are some Sanctuary Zones in the Bay itself: http://www.environment.sa.gov.au/files/sharedassets/marine_parks/regional_brochures/eyre-peninsula-marine-park-bro.pdf Cheers af
  13. Mid-September to end of November is usually the go. Cheers af
  14. Hi ShoreJigger Must admit I wasn't an "early adopter" of this product, and am not even a "late adopter"! I have trouble even trying to keep up with what's available free-to-air. Cheers af
  15. http://www.strikehook.com/index.php/topic/27687-fishing-videos-on-demand-fishflickstv/?hl=fishflicks :) Cheers af
  16. A timely reminder of why this is so important: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-11-05/michael-buble-says-3yo-son-noah-diagnosed-with-cancer/7997860 af
  17. ...yet another gadget for the incurable tackle rat - your thoughts? http://castmasteraustralia.com.au Cheers af
  18. They also do a good range of seafood seasonings: http://www.herbies.com.au/?s=Seafood&post_type=product Cheers af
  19. From a cursory look on the interweb, it seems that Old Bay was/is illegal to bring into Australia, Costco may or may not have stocked it at one stage, and there are any number of home-made knock-off recipes. There is a reputable Australian company who provide what I would expect to be a reasonable subsitute (having previously used their products): http://www.herbies.com.au/shop/herbs-and-spices/rubs/bay-seasoning-75g/ Cheers af
  20. Review from "The Weekend Australian" of September 24-25, 2016, by John Lethlean: SOUNDS FISHY I discovered early in my now 20-year career as a typist on matters of food that fish was a slippery subject. "There's no such thing as cod in Australia," would come the voice down the line. (People still called each other in those days.) "Was it jewfish or dhufish? How can you be sure?" I might have mentioned fishing for blackback in Tassie as a kid. "You mean Australian salmon, right?" The Britpack of chefs had invaded our kitchens, and with them and their pasty complexions had c
  21. OK, I admit it... I'm a sucker for Seafood Cookbooks. This is one is a doozie, though - just released in the last couple of days: https://www.murdochbooks.com.au/browse/books/cooking-food-drink/ingredients/Australian-Fish-and-Seafood-Cookbook-John-Susman-Anthony-Huckstep-Sarah-Swan-and-Stephen-Hodges-9781743362952 Not just recipes, though...lots of good information on identification, sources, sustainability, substitutes, preparation etc., etc... Picked up my copy last Friday from Dymocks, and although it's not cheap, I can recommend it. Cheers af
  22. Thanks for that, ShoreJigger Definitely a more compact and elegant option to the EZ Knotter... Cheers af
  23. http://www.elitetackle.com.au/ez-knotter/ Cheers af
  24. Might have to stock up on the Camo Sandworms if they have any... Cheers af
