  1. You can also buy it direct from the manufacturers, in some cases, also look for how many strands, upwards of 6 and $$$ goes up.... Most are made in Korea, or China... even the "brand names" are made there as well. Just remember the old saying , You get what you pay for......

  7. If you are referring to the ramp near the Port Adelaide Sailing Club, you best not keep any valuables in it.....
  8. Well Done Alex, once again, you show everyone how it is done ..... Keep up the great reports

  12. Google says here:Rod - 1Rod - 2Rod - 3
  13. Great effort, I bet she was stoked !!!! with the Flattie !!!! It's great when the kids catch nice fish..
  14. try and use the wheels of a junior BMX style pushy, look around when hard refuse is being chucked out, and look for an old pushy with the small knobby style wheels on it, and grab them,That way you are half way there , if you can adapt them to the golf-buggy again, getting there,Hope this gives you an Idea...... or you can buy a similar product, but nothing beats home made...Here is one in Australia, Balloon Wheels .... Beach Cart
  15. Have about 4 of these rods, great feel, no weight , and pull hard... as for letting them kick around in the back of the ute !! NO WAY...These are graphite rods, and any knock or drop could cause them to explode under load..Very under rated rod, I have the 10, 6-8 and 1-3 Kg rated ones, and could not be happier with them
  16. Well Done little fella You are the complete fisherman !!!!! Doing a lot better than most .... keep up the great reports & pics.......
  17. Found this article as well ....Graphite Rods.... This came from here ... Conditions of Returning Graphite Rods.... How can they prove this ..... sad state of affairs.....
  18. Ale , can you remember how you paid for them?Cash or Card ? If by card, you should be able to track the receipt from online banking... etc., and perhaps ask the tackle store for a copy of it, It might be a pain for them, but they should have all receipts kept.......Hope this helps.................
  19. Looks like carefully placed to me, and happen to " quick get a photo of that " .........
  20. Well Done little Guy !!! Keep it up, you could get an article in a fishing mag .......
  21. Today's Newspaper Page 31..... small article... I see no problem for the ramp to have even a 99 year clause, after all, CYCSA is a "non for profit" organisation.This is probably the best Public Boat Ramp in Adelaide, let alone SA.The last thing needed is for this to go, and housing be put up in its place.....Rough estimates put that car park and water frontage worth around the $20-30 Million mark
  22. I overheard some information yesterday, that the CYCSA is at loggerheads with the State Government and local Council, on funding for a Breakwater extension and public access to the ramp area, that a closure of the North Haven Boat Ramp, could now end up as a definite possibility.For those in the Port Adelaide / Enfield Council area, I would keep a keen eye out for an article being published in the local Messenger......You heard it first here ............................... :c :c :c
  23. Good quality video there 4THA Dont know about the ABC news sound track tho ........
