  1. Try using a Nymph.2 on the one line works ok.

    Same as most places Mac, right time and tide will catch a few.Only issue is that the boat traffic through their is very high so Monday to Thursday is best.Also as Boyo said, you will lose your anchor if you snag up any of the cable that is laying all over the place that has been there for 15 years +Better option is the reefs to the left of Sulli's and finding a nice ledge..
  3. Hi guys,The settings I have been playing around with that give me the best results are what I stated above. 48fps at 1080. As we are using this to record our sailing we often hit speeds in excess of 20knots with the gps clocking 27knots the other day. On a 18ft catamaran you can beef it pretty quickly at these speeds hence the required frame rate and picture quality. I would rather be running 60fps but it does chew the juice quicker.Slowing the frame rate or the picture quality would mean a poor quality finish.I have played with the Protune on and off and there is a slight change in battery us
  4. I picked up the GoPro 3 Black last fortnight for the Freshwater Classic Milang to Goolwa race. Couple of things I have found with the camera I am not happy about and lots that I am.Happy.Picture quality is better than anything you have ever seen. The action shots I took of 30 shots a second mean you can do a great sequence.The WiFi connect App is great, on the iphone you can select all the different settings and record video or shoot pictures.The case is very tough, dont think the attachments are as tough though...Sad.Battery life is dismal, I get around an hour out of the standard battery.

  5. Technice is good value. Frozen water bottles last longer than the trips. I cool the esky down the night before as well.
  6. Or an Indonesian Snapper, again caught up north.
  7. care to be a little more non specific about it?Don't need to give away location but a bit more info would be good if you have it?
  8. I have done the drag upgrade for all of my reels over the years.TLD's 15 - 20 - 25. Did the Alan Tani upgrade on the 25 and the difference is incredible. Everything from my 1500's through to the 6500's on Spin and Light baitcasters through to lever drag. Costs a bit but if you do a couple every month it works out. I also run them wet with Cals Grease.
  9. 10kg on 6lb bass hard on a luvias 1500 matched to a StCroix ultra light and only landed because it took a circle.
  10. Maslins. All around the flats where you see grey patches in the sand, this is the excavation of the nippers.
  11. Watch out if landbased fishing, there are crocs and they will come up without you even seeing them. Just because its a big sandy beach does not mean they are not there.. If you can get some live bait then rig a 30lb - 50lb leader with a 7/0 circle and send it out. If you see a guy throwing a cast net around tell him you will give him $5 for a dozen herring. (You will need a bucket to keep them alive unless you fish next to the guy)Send out one line with a live bait and cast lures with the other to keep you busy.I would use 30lb braid on most of my mid range gear.Estuary fishing can be a bit hi
  12. I remember the Glenelg boat ramp machine. I would guess that vandalism would be the main reason they don't do it any more.
  13. Have not used a Blades & Tails so cant really comment on it.What's your budget?Personally I would not be using a plastics rod for bait. But I will use a jigging rod for bait. But I fish off a boat, am a short ass, and find that a shorter rod around 5'8 which is like a lighter Jigging style rod really is great fun to use. Throwing plastics is different unless its in deeper water where your dropping it straight down.
  14. G LoomisGUSADaiwa SVF (Heartland or similar Blank) cut and shut to your size. (I run a 3000 Sol with Carbon drag and I lift Rays of the floor with it easy)What are you going to use it for? Plastics, Bait? Jigging?Cheers
