i seen a ray on tuesday morn that allmost messed up a dolphin in the port, had my ray rod out next thing i see my uncle with a "WTF!!" look on his face turned around and seen an eaglie flying through the air and SPLASH landed REALY close to me then see the ray start fliping out swinging its tail like crazy as this dolphin was "i think trying to eat it" probly wouldof been screwed if it didnt have its tail! the look on my uncles face was priceless as he's never seen a ray other than my photo's and to see it luanch outa the water the way it did. he was stoked to see it.and if the dolphin wasnt t

i agree carps, the whole reason of this thread was to find out who had used it and how it went as bait so i could decide if i wanted to try it or not

wise move spartan, didnt relise what i had started till i'd posted

cheers for the answers fella's, would be keen to try it but by the looks of it i could cop a mouth full from some members if seen doing it lol

nothing wrong with slamon etc, im just asking man, for all i kno they might of been wicked bait!?i dont wana realy kill one was just wondering. seen it in too many video's/ websites with ppl using them.ss

i have seen on alot of shark webistes and video's on youtube people useing eagle ray's or eagle ray chunks as bait for sharkshas anyone try'd it? looks like it works very well.cheers scott.

i got a starlo stix snapper spin-penn applause 3000 for slamon and randomshimano backbone ellite 24kg- penn 9/0 (site said it could hold 700meters of 50lb mono.. i got nearly 1000m)random shimano kmart flicker 1-3kg- jarvis walker ceratec cheapy,random abu 1-3kg- shimano sienna 1000fb,(mates rods but allways with my collection)penn mariner plus 15-24kg-diawa sld30,rando atlantis 10' surf comborando fly rodplus the rest that have retired and dont see sunlight anymorei can see alot more to come

i try not to harm any fish that i dont want to keep, altho my mate has taken ONE barb off a eagle ray as a letter opener and this was only because we where told they grow back! so i dont get abused we have only done it ONCE out of alot of rays witch where released un-harmed.gaffing them to land them? i'll do it when there is no other way to land them without it being a major pain in the ass and only because i enjoy LANDING them and getting afew happy snaps.but each to they're own

ummmm ok lol, interesting

from what i can tell its the same as befor think they re-used most of the handrailing aswell, agree'd yorke_angler from what i could see "last time i looked at it, it was still closed" they just added some new up-rights to the side of the crusty old ones that where gunna give gunna go have a sus soon hope they redone more than the broken bits or its gunna give out befor summer again lolcant wait for summer only live up the road from it. can see some loong hours sharking off the end of it in the future

ah righto, will have to findoutwould think it would just be the wire wouldnt ya.

bit too late now, he's probly at the end of the local jetty with a baloon out haha

ahh im happy with 2mm wire, not too much is gunna bight through thatif anyone has had a bite off on 2mm i wana hear about it!!
