  1. Where to? http://www.raysoutdoors.com.au/ It comes up as $79, but when it moves to the checkout is shows up as $39. Not sure if there are any in stock in Adelaide, as it didn't give me the option to pick up from in store.
  2. Just picked up two from the online sale. $97 delivered to Whyalla. Can't complain!
  3. Nice! Were you using waders by any chance? Or are the gutters in really close? No it was in April, so the water wasn't too cold. I've got a Daiwa Seajigger which can cast 70 gram metals a long way, but that day they were within an easy cast distance
  4. I've only been to KI once, but had one of my best ever Salmon sessions at the second beach at Hanson Bay. I was casting lures into the gutters and caught a heap of 3-4kg size fish over a couple of hours. Interestingly there were others fishing near me using bait and didn't catch one.
  5. Daiwa Seajigger and Shimano Stradic C14 4000 size reel. Fish the west coast regularly and love using this set up. Handles 4 kg + Salmon nicely.
  6. I was there in April two years ago and had some unbelievably good Salmon sessions at Hanson Bay, which is not far from Vivonne Bay. There are two beaches at Hanson Bay. The first is a sheltered bay, the second is a more open surf beach. The open surf beach produced 4kg Salmon each time I fished there. Was using 70 and 90 gram metals. Not sure when this beach fishes best, but it was on fire when I was there.
  7. I bought a yearly subscription for the magazine on my iPad, but it is always coming out late. Very frustrating when I want to read it and see it on the shelves. Regret paying for the subscription, would rather just buy it when it hits the shelves.
  8. I bought one of the Black Magic Whiting Whackers more out of curiosity than anything. I've been fishing two rods the last few trips - one with a whiting whacker and the other with a standard paternoster rig with size 6 long shank hooks. I have caught quite a few on the whiting whacker but reckon I have lost more than I normally would have. I still prefer the long shank hook as opposed to circles for whiting.
  9. lazer lures cast a mile and catch more fish. Tried the other ones but can cast the Lazers a good 20-30 metres further which is important sometime
  10. Thanks for the replies. Might have a crack at making one myself. Also got the names of a couple of stores which sell them.Thanks!
  11. Wondering if anyone can help me here. Been out on boats crabbing before and seen people using a telescope style viewer to see the bottom and see if their crab net has any crabs in it before pulling it up.Not sure what they are called. Recently bought a boat and want to get myself one, but so far i've had no luck in the fishing stores that I have looked in.Cheers.
  12. Thanks for the reply and advice. Definitely happy to go with the Seajigger. Live in Whyalla so normally order my stuff through Mo's, but will be in Adelaide in a couple of weeks so will go into Ray and Annes when i'm down. Can I ask how much you paid for it and Ray and Annes?
  13. Sounds like a good rod. I'm looking for a similar rod. Fished locks well last week with a 7 6" Shimano Raider Snapper. Handled some large Salmon easily but wasn't really long enough to get great casting distance.Was thinking of getting a Sensor Surf, which is $40 cheaper than the Seajigger 305 from MoTackle.What would be the better rod out of the two? Will be purely for casting metals at Salmon and would be matched to a 3000 Saros with 15 lb braid, but shortly a 4500 Eblem Pro with 20lb braid.

  15. yeah just think of a kayak as a giant popper. Rig up a hook coming out of the rudder and u should be able to catch yourself a Great White. I heard yellow is the best colour to
