Milmo

I finally got around to making a batch of berley blocks.
 
Ingredients included old bait like cockles, a few weird looking pillies, salmon trout, salmon frames, tommies, fresh prawn shells, squid, some old snapper  and stale bread, I think that was about it.
 

 
Some nice containers ready to use. I saved a few round containers so the berley could go in those small, screw top, plastic berley pots.
 

 
My berley BEAST! Ok not a beast. I actually chipped the blades on the fish frames
 

 
The berley mix looked awesome and sooo very tasty.
 

 
Packed and ready to freeze.
 

 
Now I just have to get out on the water and give them a go   
 
I'll definitely have to make more at some stage.

OK. a suggestion about next time u make the mix, add some items that may be around in your kitchen.
Curry powder
Anaisseed oil
Contents of cans of cat food that have pilchards.
 
A keen jetty fisher from back in the 80,s would add the above to his burley blocks with and additional item he called  dripping.
He would use an onion bag  that had a rock in it to keep it at the bottom and  would sit on the end of a West Coast Jetty catching snapper.

Morning Hookers! Today I have some exciting news; the St Kilda - Chapman's Creek aquatic reserve has been lifted for land based fishing as of midnight last night. The reserve has been there for approximately 25 years and this morning Minister Gago, Lisa Vlahos (Member for Taylor) and Susan Close (Member for Port Adelaide) came down to announce that it has now been opened. What this means is that it is now legal for people to fish and crab, land based, on the right hand side of the St Kilda break wall and all along the water front of the right hand side.Some things to be aware of:Bait digging and fishing (other than land based) are still prohibited as are collecting or removing any bottom dwelling organism other than Blue Swimmer Crabs which may be taken by rake/hand/hoop net. A full fact sheet is available from St Kilda Tackle & Tucker or available here.Get out there and get stuck into them. I personally reckon the Flathead fishing will be great in some of the little channels and troughs that form on turn of the tides.Edit: There was supposed to be a pic to go with this, but it doesn't seem to like me today.

Went down to Noarlunga last friday fishing from the jetty but not a single bite. Tried my luck at the river and caught 4 bream in one hour. 2 undersize and the biggest 36cm. Lost another 3 or 4 because i was using small hook.

@Kayak Noob - That St's size range from 25 -28cm.@Bent87 - That the first one for this year. Was there last weekend and only caught 8.

Bag out at St Kilda this morning. The fish starting to bite really well.

With the weather looking good today, i went to Outer Harbour about 8am with nothing really particular in mind what to fish. My plan was fishing down the end of the breakwall but i only got half way as my leg were hurting. Didn't waste my time, i setup my rod and start fishing with squid head as a bait. Five minute later, something grab my bait and it was dog shark... and again and again and again... five dog shark in a raw?!. Really annoying but they really give a good fight. With just dog shark taking my bait, i just wanted to go home but when i about to pack my thing suddenly seeeesss...seeeesssssssssssssssss... my reel running very fast. Grab my rod and let it run for awhile but when i realised my line getting short i try to give it a fight. Really heavy. My mind start debating "is this ray?" but it running very fast. It probably a mulloway too. After fighting for maybe 3 or 4 minute, my 10kg line snapped and the fish escape . Lesson for me (use much bigger line).Upset but satisfying at the same time as this is the first time i fight fish that heavy. Even if i managed to land the fish, thinking of how i get there i will have to release it . So that it for me today. I didn't catch any fish but surely I'll be back :cheer:

after watching this, west beach rocks might be worth a shot milmo, some fella pulled a monster from there a few yrs back

Amazing clicks!! I guess you get more beautiful pics in the evening as light of dusk sparkle on the water and creates glitters on it.It looks outrageous!!

What funny this morning was i thought i caught the boat that went pass but actually something big pulling my line. Went i almost saw the fish it spit the hook . But it was fun :cheer: .
