Everytime butters and i go fishing he always cuts himself on something....knife, hook, squashes his finger in some pliers, flathead......anything!The flatthead belly slime helped relieve most of the pain from memory, but he still bled like a stuck pig! {SMILIES_PATH}/rolleyes.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/rolleyes.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif

A very nice fish, and a great way to start off malley. {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif

A top fella at our local tackleworld got us on to it {SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gifI got the link from butters and we joined up to sheldonsbait that day...A few changes have come about since then, and aarron decided to call us "strike and hook" and we've watched as more and more members have joined... {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif

personally, I couldn't be a*sed reading through this film script thread, so i SIMPLIFIED it, and got straight to the point... Sorry if i stole your thunder GH {SMILIES_PATH}/embarrassed.gif

I've already started buying every bream lure there is, and in every colour too {SMILIES_PATH}/rolleyes.gifSo Yak, the Bottom line is......Use a SMALL amount on your hook, and a LITTLE amount through your burley, and everyone is happy

And this one went just a little shorter than 87cm but was no where near as fat as the previous http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/NYmZroMI__snookage.JPG[/img]

Noticed this species didn't have a thread yet so here it is...This one went 87cm and over 5lb caught locally just before new years on an unweighted pillie[i:hhlu8mc5]note: excuse the burnt face and raccoon eyes {SMILIES_PATH}/tongue.gif[/i:hhlu8mc5] http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/d0SB0tfq__big_snook.JPG[/img]

You have to wonder sometimes, what goes through some peoples heads....? {SMILIES_PATH}/tongue.gif

I'll give it a go Yak Just for shits and giggles {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gifHave you ever tried to pick up a dog, or any animal for that matter which doesn't want to be held?Well the outcome is that they'll simply squirm and try to wriggle their way out, or at worst, just piss bolt and climb a tree or something and make it impossible for you to catch them.Now i'm not saying fish don't feel pain, cause frankly i wouldn't have clue. But how about the thought that fish fight back because of the resistance in their mouth? I notice ( apart from a few species ) that most hooked fish fight away or sid

I'd rather hook the ultimate mulloway than worry about the ultimate outfit.... {SMILIES_PATH}/undecided.gif {SMILIES_PATH}/undecided.gif

Nothing like the feeling of emptying your bag at the end of a hectic session.. {SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gifCheers,Wino {SMILIES_PATH}/grin.gif riot..

Ahh...good times {SMILIES_PATH}/cheesy.gif*** Please note: all fish were released unharmed***

i'll say! that's a quality catch from the rocks mate {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif

Can work for those who want to sit a bait on the bottom, but can't get the required distance with a cast. Tie a small strip of line off your main swivel, directly to a lifesaver.Then from the lifesaver, tie off around a metre or so of line to a balloon and float the bait out.Once the lifesaver has disolved the balloon attachment comes off, sending your bait down right were you need it....Obviously winds and tides play a big role in this too {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif

I'm using nitlon braid aswell brenton, not sure if it was 14 or if they make it in 15lb? ( josh a little help {SMILIES_PATH}/tongue.gif )So far i haven't had any problems with air knots, and i've used it for salmon down at yorkes, and a lot of unweighted bait fishing aswell.When i loaded the spool up i then took it outside and hooked the line up to a tree, ran down the street under 3/4 tension, and then wound it back up tight.I looked like a total kn*b-head to my neighbours, but so far the line has been good for me....

were your arms and back sore?

during the winter if we need to gather some livies we'll hit up that area with half a loaf of bread and some gents.Doesn't take to fill the bucket up {SMILIES_PATH}/wink.gifunweighted with 2 small hooks works for us {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif

Got this fish from lincoln the other day.We released a few fish which were quite a bit chunkier than this fellow too {SMILIES_PATH}/smiley.gif http://www.fishyorkepeninsula.com/images/attachments/HkORJhUA__tuna12.jpg[/img]

http://strikehook.com/index.php?option= ... opic=749.0this was my best trip by far!C'mon guys there's a chance to win a $50 voucher and so far we've only had a few stories....

Interesting about the weights versus measurements scenario.My 13.8kilo fish went 108cm and had a nice slender shape about it.When i compare that to butters 30lb'er his was a little shorter but a much more box shape. Very square nose and bump.
