Live Fibre

Yorke's towns are all tight knit communities,and news spreads quickly the length and breadth of the Peninsula.............scum-bags not welcome

FSU 4120 is a great salmon rod in my opinion Never had a Wilson one,or in spin form.........always in o/head for an ABU 7000.......running 15lb mono.A blank pattern that has "stood the test of time"........you could do a lot worse

FUGLY

This topic has had a good run previously on this Forum - the "Search" button is your friend...Cheersaf

I have a 92 litre "Tropical"......an orange one.........approx 1000mm x 500 x 500.......not been away with it yet,but used it NYE for all the drinks at home........bagged ice lasted until Jan 5,and that's with kids and hung-over adults in and out all that time ........got it at Christies camping,reckon less than $200.The best esky I've ever had though,probably too big for your application,was an old bar fridge......given up the ghost..........had a fridgey mate take the motor / compressor / gas out of it.......took the shelves from the door,replaced with a marine ply sheet (varnished / sealed) and filled the void in the door with "expanding foam"........now that was an esky!..........I took it to a mates shack on the river one year......some-one "borrowed it"

Personally,I don't like ebay,but plenty of others do,and do well with their purchasing.I reckon "If it look's too good to be true,it is"..........buyer beware :dry: Just my opinion though Good luck

Live Fibre rods are constructed from carbon fibre,fibre-glass "strands" and resin.......light and strongMT8144 is "old school" 8 sheets of fibre-glass sheet,formed over a mandrel ( looks a bit like a steel 8 ball cue )8144 is a real stump-puller,very reliable and will handle "most abuse".........very heavy after a long session,and a bit like a broomstick in action compared to an equivalent length / rated Live Fibre.........nice rods.I have 3 MT8144 rods,and love'em..........one with a SpinFisher 9500SS,one a 651 Alvey and one running an ABU 10,000.....all spooled with 30lb mono..........all "old school" heavier type reels.In this day and age,with reels being lighter etc,perhaps your Live Fibre might be the go As for which is better,well,that's a personal choice.........my 8144's are 20 years+ in age,and fishing time available to me,and funds don't really allow / warrant an upgrade ..........not that I would;if it ain't broke,don't fix it

Try squid

though you would think some people would have common sense.

There's no "rules" in fishing.......consider them more "guide-lines"

I like to get all my bait from the Fish Factory on Grand Junction Rd.......I figure if it's good enough for me ,it's good enough for them ........having said that though,it's good to get a small line out for a "freshie"

I reckon a couple of hundred yards is "my idea" of close enough

ouch :dry:

can't wait to hear.....I like the look of that one myself

When that little whaler grows up,he wants to be a GW .......poor little bugger

shove ya pigs in the cop shop up ya arse mate

If I ever get a KG thats legal,I keep it,but I don't target them.........only a few mixed with the yellowfin here and there.

I reckon I read somewhere (not sure where) that Shimano and PowerPro are "in bed" together ........sounds like the same relationship as at my place :ohmy: if that's the case

can't wait to hear he claimed they had caught Mekong catfish ..........perhaps (not )..........if they're any good mate,I'll get one in July 2013 when I'm there next

Gonna make it harder to spot my neighbours crops... :evil:

I saw them in a store in Phucket earlier this year......I just laughed at it, and the proprietor got quite offended :ohmy: Bought some crap from him just to "smooth things over" as I was just in there looking anyway........spent about $30 AU which was a "weeks sales" for him Got 2 spools of PowerPro 30lb braid,300m, for $20 AU......still in the cupboard!...........the other 10 bux worth of crap,I just gave to 2 kid's looking in the shop window and dreaming..........hooks,floats,line etc......they thought all their Christmas's had come at once .......was great to see their smiles though,true thankfulness

GREED.....that's how........basic "supply and demand"......you want it bad enough,you'll pay..........a good topography map and a hand held gps / compass gets you anywhere

I can think of one old freshie getting a bolt rig ready looking at this

yep tennyson beach' date=' low tide on the run out but you want a little water to run over the sand bar so your slop bag can carry the scent up and down as the water washes over if that makes sense.. usually ol' italian chap down there pulling e'm up, good bloke showed me how to get e'm, good luck [attachment=13202']tennyson2011001.JPG[/attachment][attachment=13203]tennyson201100727.jpg[/attachment]last session
