i generally prefer shimano but think its hard to go past a daiwa bg. 5000 would be more than enough. put that on a 8-12kg rod or similar rod and you will have a great little combo. no need to go to over the top with sizes

Snapper15.4kg "abolished" was probably the wrong word to use sorry. I am a supporter of the idea but I just feel that atm everyone is getting ahead of themselves. the details are vague and no time frame has been put in place. I just feel as though all of this carry on is getting peoples hopes up. we need to take a step back and wait for something to happen before jumping the gun. We need to understand that this is a new gov and they have almost no experience in governing. Things will more than likely take longer than anticipated to happen because of this. I also feel that there are

https://strongplan.com.au/first-100-days/ YELLIWTAIL see attached link. where does it state that recfish will be abolished in the first 100 days? I hope the come through with all they have promised for the fishing sector but atm its just words

Do you understand that a pre-election policy means nothing? This is just what they plan to do not what they have done. They still need to implement this and im not saying they wont but it wouldnt be the first government to back-flip on a pre-election promise. How about waiting to see what they actually do before getting too carried away.

Only 3 members of the new government have been sworn in. The remainder get sworn in on Thursday. Pretty sure this wont be the #1 thing they do when they do.

+1 for ash. never been but only seen and heard great things

Thanks for the reply's.

I was more worried about the fishing not so much about collecting them. I wasnt sure if it was a state wide event or localized to the gulf waters. Was hoping it wouldnt affect the fishing too much.

Hey guys, heading to coffin bay tomorrow night for the week. just wondering if the blood worms run down there or is a gulf thing?

I use half soy sauce and half Worcestershire sauce then add a heap of chilli, garlic and any other herbs and spices feel like at the time. Let if sit in the fridge for 24hrs or so (not too long though). It generally takes 4-6hrs to dehydrate depending on the thickness of the meat. Make sure you use meat with as little fat as possible, i tend to use a top side roast but have also used roo and venison.

FG knot for braid to leader. A lot thinner and stronger than the double uni. Just as quick to tie especially if you do the simplified version.

I have caught a few kings up there live baiting with a TLD 25 with 50lb mono and worked fine. I have since gone away from this as I have been throwing the livies around a bit, not really casting but lobbing them out the back. I would happily use a TLD if all I was doing was downrigging. Otherwise I would go a Fin-nor, saltist or maybe even a stradic.

Fin Nor lethal 100 would be one of my top choices in reels. not too sure of the rods as that is a bit of a personal feel thing for me, just go to the local tackle shop and compare a few in your range

They are actually pretty good! I would be more than happy to take more home if I ever got the chance again!

That is enormous.... Wow
