    As Plankton said go to http://www.tides4fis.../port-noarlunga or any other destination you want to fish.
     
    I always look at - tides 4 fishing and is normally correct other wish I blame the crew, bait, tide against wind, tackle or whatever comes to mind

    Hahaha........My parents are Geordies so i must be more atuned to the accent   
     
    I liked the look of the Pulley Rig for it's casting ability & also the way the fish would pull the sinker up clear around the central pivot point upon hookup.
     
    I tried this rig last year down Salties but didn't notice much gain in casting distance but that would have been more due to my lack of casting technique, so i would assume a proficient surf caster would benefit with this rig.
     
    I didn't have any hookups whilst using it & switched over to a traditional paternoster for the remaining w/end, however i think i'll try it again if ever i chance upon a hot bite.

    Great work there Plankton! Really appreciate you putting this up. Going to have to get a few more bits and pieces for the FWC mission in a few weeks by the looks!

    Remember that anyone retrieving has right of way regardless of which lane they are in, and what state of launching you are in. You never know if there is someone injured on board, hole in the boat, etc. Had a big mouth have a go at me one day at sullies for launching in a non-priority launching lane (nothing says you can't). He retrieved down the priority launch lane and started mouthing off at me in front of his yachtie mates. If the tosser had read his boating manual before leaving home, he would have been aware he could of pulled in behind me and I would be obliged to get out the way - which I would have.Another note from your manual - take note of which side of the harbour entrance you need to be on whilst exiting / entering. The amount of people that don't know this simple rule is dumbfounding.Take your knowledge and commonsense with you and leave your attitude at home. You will find most people will try and help you.

    during darkness when backing down ramp switch your headlights to parkers so the next guy is not blinded whilst backing next to you, nothing worse then trying to back your trailer and being blinded while the idiot next to you stuffs around hooking his boat on

    I have had mixed experiences personally. There have been members that have have openly helped me with spots / techniques and in one person's case taken me out numerous times on their boat, which resulted in my PB snapper. There have been some great friendships forged as a result. I won't name these members as I don't wish them to be hounded for information. Their spots will follow me to the grave, as I believe trust should be earnt not assumed. I have also reciprocated with information where possible from my puddle of knowledge (in comparison).On a separate note I have taken a S&H member on my boat out to one of my spots on a strict agreement that it was to be kept confidential. A number of months later I find that spot posted on the internet by the member despite promises to keep it quiet... understandably :c off with this situation.That in itself has really soured the experience for me, and I am now very cautious about distributing information to others.

    The outfall as mentioned is a questionable topic, but personally I don't see it as a good thing. They are removing salt gigalitres of water and dumping the concentrate into one area. If it was in backstairs passage it wouldn't be a problem due to extreme currents that would dilute the outfall quite quickly. Dumping it into a culdesac such as our gulf can't be a good thing. It will also take a while for the true impacts to be seen, as firstly the micro / macro marine growth will die, then everything else will ship out as it decides there is now nowhere to hide and nothing to feed on. The weeds will go first followed small fish / crustaceans then everything else further up the food chain. One great plus though - there won't be any sharks!! They will no longer have anything to eat so will head for greener pastures.The big question I would like to ask is how the hell are they powering the great white elephant of the south? All this BS about carbon taxes, the environment, etc and they are installing this thing. The nature of RO plants is that salty water is forced through a series of membranes at high pressure to remove the salt. Pumps with high discharge head require very large motors to power them. Now combine this with the volumes that they are expecting, and we are talking some serious pump duty. Maybe if they installed a massive windfarm next to it they could come close to justifying it, but no, they will be pulling the electricity off the grid which is mostly supplied by dirty great coal burning power stations. Media Mike made a job creation scheme with little regard for the impacts. They should have looked further into recycling the vast amounts of storm water that ends up back in the ocean.

    We live not far from the esplanade down Seaford way and as soon as the warmer weather comes in we get tossers doing 100km/h+ down all the side streets. We have mates down the road with young ones that quite often play on the footpath, so hate these idiots with a passion. Never feel sorry when I see one of them get wiped out, and there have been a few over the last year or so.

    If using pillies I always run the IQF ones as bait. The block ones are crap and turn to much as soon as they are thawed. Only grab as many as you need at a time from the esky so they go on the hooks mostly frozen. Block pillies are a berley only option for me.
