    Knots

    keenfisho replied to RedReeler's topic in Bait & Tackle

    How often do you have to tie an FG knot whilst wading? How light do you fish? I wouldn't have thought that you break too many knots at all. I fish 4pound most of the time sometimes 8 pound leader at the most. I don't have to retie many leaders mate but when I do need to change one I end up doing a double Uni and find they tend to catch the guides more and break more often If I can tie the fg easily while out there then I wouldn't have to worry about as many I also tie my lures rather than using clips so sometimes a leader change is needed due to needing more rather than breaking them off

    I was using the fg knot on all my setups but have found when wading the flats it's just too hard to tie while trying to keep your reel out of the water and the wind fighting you I normally just use the double Uni while wading and fg when in my boat I have just been told I have 3 of the knot assist devices on the way to me which should make the fg knot a bit easier while wading😎

    Yep great reels I love them I use a 1000 ci4+ atm and it has caught 50cm salmon no problem. Just takes a bit longer to get them in but part of the fun I say

    Darwin

    keenfisho posted a topic in General Fishing

    So I'm lucky enough I'm going on a four day fully paid trip to Darwin in August by one of my suppliers On the Saturday I had a choice of a few different activities. Options varied from the jumping crocs tour, the place that has the clear tub they put you down to the croc in, day spa, free day to your self etc etc My choice of course was a full day fishing charter which I disappointedly found out today is a off shore charter. Don't get me wrong I'm sure it will be awesome but was really wishing to fulfill a long time dream on flicking some lures in the creeks and catching my first bara. I al

    Great report and some good sized salmon looks like you had a good couple of days weather wise too. Interesting to hear the seals are back Last time I was down there the seals had disappeared to go breed shame they came back but that was always going to happen.

    Awesome little bag I'm currently using one I got from bcf. Can't remember the brand but more a bum bag style that I throw over my head and shoulder but that looks like a great bag for my flats fishing. What website did you order it from

    Had a go at Maslins Sunday arvo, lots of walking and casting and not a touch. Very happy with my new lure bag setup though, a Daiwa Trout Bag with my own customised lure storage system! There's a good winter post, do tell regarding the bag and custom lure storage. Pics would be good
