I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous... Cheers af

This one was speared - would have been an interesting proposition on rod and line: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11700495 Cheers af

Well-timed, keenfisho... http://www.ntnews.com.au/business/significant-oil-spill-in-darwin-harbour/news-story/7b5036b84ae48a399a177dc73e6ebdbf Cheers af

OK...I recently posted in the "Shoutbox" about this, but I think it deserves wider coverage: https://gonefishingday.org Thanks to ludaqryz for the tip-off... Cheers af

...a nice little display to frighten the Barra: https://www.facebook.com/RoyalAustralianAirForce/videos/vb.88014372638/10154089306072639/?type=2&theater Cheers af P.S. Good luck on your fishing expedition later this week.

...and now, the lures: http://www.fishingworld.com.au/news/afta-2016-fishing-world-s-top-10-lures I have noticed that the Fish Inc Lures Prop has so far been mentioned in four separate papers/magazines that I have read in the last week - it is either a totally excellent lure or the mother of all marketing campaigns.

I suspect this may generate some discussion (from "Fishing World" website 28/7/16): http://www.fishingworld.com.au/news/afta-2016-fishing-world-s-top-5-reels Cheers af

Oops...try 2012 and 2014...

Hi keenfisho Haven't used a charter up that way for a while now (my favourite has now shifted from Darwin), but here's a link that may be of assistance: http://www.darwinfishingcharters.net.au Also, depending on what time in August you are up that way, you may be able to catch some of this: https://www.airforce.gov.au/pitch-black-2016/?RAAF-3xDAz1/hk42suVVSpr1Cu8g/PIWlvnIr I was up in Darwin during Pitch Black 2014 and 2016 and it was a blast to see some reasonably exotic aircraft at full noise. Cheers af

Hi Brutus Have you contacted this mob before? http://www.allergy.org.au/patients/food-allergy/allergic-and-toxic-reactions-to-seafood Cheers af

Hi Brutus I admit that this is the first time I have heard of this sort of reaction, but a quick Google appears to confirm it is a relatively common occurrence. Hopefully someone on this site may be able to help you with a solution - I'll ask around and let you know if I hear of anything. Good luck in your quest for relief from this problem. Cheers af

A couple of tips here, doobie: http://www.taste.com.au/how+to/articles/446/how+to+deep+fry Cheers af

+1 for the Rice Bran Oil from me too.... Cheers af

Nice work on the butt extension, southie....I presume you will be nicknaming it the "Kardashian"? Cheers af

Pop in and say "G'day" to this mob when you're up there, Alexsfishin1: http://www.topothegulfmarine.com.au They will let you know what is happening around the place. Cheers af

A small selection of what's out there in a Redfin pattern (all bar one purchased in SA): Cheers af

Hi jiron Apparently there is an accepted common wisdom that as Redfin are cannibalistic, any lure in a Redfin pattern will quite often do the trick. The hard body in the first photo in the post from Meppstas (above) would tend to support that theory. Most of the better lure manufacturers offer hard bodies in a Redfin pattern. I have also heard that Trout patterns work well, too. Cheers af

Well that worked well, then... http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-06-10/cloud-seeding-carried-out-over-tasmanian-catchment-before-floods/7499226 Cheers af

An interesting occurrence as a result of the Tassie floods: http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/jun/08/flood-hit-spiders-stake-claim-to-higher-ground-in-mass-ballooning-australia Cheers af

Meppstas I think your pic's say it all - the "before" and "after" shots in particular really put things into perspective. Cheers af
