  1. For any of u guys interesting in tuna fishing. i had 4ppl last minture cancellations. And I need 4 more ppl to make it happen. Our group of 4 are easy going and very keen fishermen.We are going with SA fishing adventure. we'll be heading out chasing Blue Fin tuna first and then bottom bouncing for the second half of the day for snapper, nannygai...If interested send me a PM or text 0420846175

  2. The Ulua rods look interesting. The technique seems very similar to the South African Slide baiting techniques of casting a heavy grapnel sinker then attaching a slide bait rig.When I fish got interested in distance casting I got a few Kilwell Pendulum 1 blanks and trimmed down the tips. These will cast 8oz and bait but and very heavy to hold.I have heard a few thinks about the Saltiga ballistic rods. There a few guys into distance casting using them in Australia' date=' but even the heaviest model bends a fair bit with only 3ozhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRgg32iAGoM[/quote']but it z really light weight. the reat seat is only 22mmit z really easy to cast. u can cast all day long, and u dun feel tiredi used to cast 50lb mono main 5-7oz sinker + baitfor my best record on this rod is a 54lb GT from the cliff.it is a awsome rod.For me the weight of the rod and the reel is really important to me. i am not a big guy. so this rod is perfect for me.talon ulua rod is special design for hawaiian use. it z perfect for slide bait. some of the rod can handle 150lb+ ulua (GT in hawaiian )For the talon i do recommend BCY069.this is the newest model.i do own a pair of BCY072. it z little bit heay. but still a good rod.Kilwell is a classic rod. some of the hawaiian still use it. but they ar too heavy to cast it.
  3. I like thinking outside the box when fishing. The old guys on the jetties get plenty of fish' date=' but as more and more people fish the fish get smarter and you need every advantage you can get.I have fished Glenelg jetty for about 12 years and started with cheap outfits, mono and glass rods. Since upgrading to long, light graphite rods, light high end threadline reels, braid, fluorocarbon trace and chemically sharpened hooks I am catching more fish and enjoying it much more. Once you use high end gear, it is just too hard to go back. Now most of the locals on Glenelg use graphite, braid and even soft plastics for tommies and snook.I am always searching for the edge in my fishing and bream on bait is another example. Longer rods allow me to cast baits with lighter or no weight and fish with more finesse. I went to the effort of sourcing some fly rod blanks to build up into 10 foot bait rods and have also picked up a pair of 13 foot tacklebuster rods for the same. Another example is long distance surf fishing. There are almost no surf rods available off the rack in Australia that can handle power casting (OTG, pendulum etc.) with 6oz and bait or more. I currently use a pair of South African Poseidon 3 piece Rods that come with 3 different tips and allow me to cast sinkers from 3oz to 8oz. They are a joy to use but very much go against the grain of traditional thinking.[/quote']i think those rod should suit u http://www.talon-graphite.com/Blank%20section/Saltwater%20Blank%20sub%20folders/Uluasaltwaterblanks.htmthose rod can cast 5-9oz sinker + baitthose rod are really goodbut its pretty expensive. for the blank usd 250-350http://www.daiwa.com/rod/detail.aspx?id=220this is another option SABS 40-405G XXH F 13'3" 3 25-60 6-15 5 this one is really good too.those rod math with a newell 4,5 or 6 series reel or shimano torium 30 or 50 reel or penn 113hlw 50-80lb mono main line + 5 -10 oz sinker + bait they can cast 100m+
