I was there yesterday didn’t see it the worker didn’t know about it . Early days yet I’ll keep looking a walk there is good exercise .

Not yet Softy it came to me yesterday morning about 10 am and I tossed up 5 minute walk to BCF or slightly longer walk to anaconda and get swooped by a pluver . Found out with the stick takes longer than 5 minutes lol . It’s just me thinking if I can’t find what I want I’ll just keep using the back pack . But once I’m free of the stick I’ll be back sticks not permanent kids want me bait fishing again nope .

Wow looks good . Haven’t waded in a decade but wow

Thanks in a couple of weeks I’m back volunteering for jobseeker at a charity op shop I’ll keep an eye open

It’s a bit like a back pack but water proof thanks

I want one that I can carry lures line scissors pliers . But less lures than I carry in my back pack . Thinking of making it easier to walk when I get back . I do live near anaconda as well but I’ll drive during the week .

I’m hoping not to far away to be able to fish again . Went by foot to BCF five minutes around the corner from home . Longer with the walking stick. I was thinking of buying a smaller bag that I can sling over my shoulder take less fishing . BCF had smaller bags nothing to sling over the shoulder . Anyone have a clue as to who sells them . I know when I’m back it will only be short trips . Thanks guys

Just quoting you I used to live at Taperoo on the way to outer harbour left there about 10 years ago . Rats and brown snakes were always a big problem from Taperoo to north haven . When I bait fished the north haven marina used to watch the rats run up the rocks and straight into the expensive houses . That was the 80/90s . I never went out far on the break water iirc used to be a little wharf there used to catch STs there in the late 90s early 00s. Then I got attacked and stung by European wasps . Good luck

Cool when I get walking again I’ll give you a message

When I can walk without a stick and fish again I may send you a message look good . Can you do a red eye or is it to hard . by the way I’ve caught lots of gulls them picking the lures up

Ok while I’m layed up I can answer some of your questions 1 if you see bream they see you 2 soft plastics if it’s high tide cast the direction the tide comes in or if it’s low tide cast the other direction . That’s what I was told when I went from hardbodies to plastics . 3 bait I haven’t used it in years but perhaps burley up with something 4 on your soft plastics try some scent 5 I assuming when you use the plastic you cast let it sink two twitches and repeat I used to do that , hope that helps

I have the Exceler but the 2500 model it’s fine on the lighter rod . Got to say my old laguna 1000 feels so much better on the 1-3 kilo rod so light .

You could go online and buy it over the net many places are free shipping

Since using a 1-3 kilo rod I love the difference from a 2-4 kilo rod

Ok guys I’ve been using the team Diawa hyper rod 1-3 kilos love it . Have yet to catch a legal bream been having fun with tiny STs yesterday 36 today 25 . I’ve been swapping with three reels besides the 2500 reel as I’ve mentioned using laguna 1000 and sienna 1000 . Same rod smaller lures . Laguna reel when I got over the line issues casts the smaller lures further than the Sienna. Rod I’m happy with

Sorry to take over the topic I started I am absolutely loving the diawa Hyper 1-3 kilo rod haven’t landed a legal bream yet but it will happen again love the rod

Try 4 lb leader can be hard with glasses

Haven’t had to return broken things . I was sold a rod that was wrong for lure fishing store took it back no issue . Good luck

Are you flicking lures at bream then yes at least 6 lb braid and 4 lb leader

I’m loving it with my 1000 reels haven’t respooled the 750 yet but it’s good with the 2500 . Funny how you can feel the tiny tiny fish now for legal or bigger . braid I’m using 6 lb on the sienna 5 lb on the laguna and other diawa reel plus all three use 4 lb FC . Into the centre of the Pat today into the wind was like a 2-4 kilo rod

Thanks I’m loving the diawa hyper had to get it from BCF family gave me a $50 gift card so it cost me $80 after the $50 card

Well Sunday was all thunder and lightning just don’t want cops storming down the hill telling me fishing isn’t exercise again seeing I’ve finished my volunteering for job seeker for the week I have time for a quick fish tomorrow

Is it now ok to go fishing ?

What I don’t get 10 people running close together the cops ignored mamils on bikes close together ignored but me ive heard reports police have stopped two people from one house in a car and told them it’s illegal to do that but you can exercise together

At a guess the ATO should goose step in cash in hand jobs aren’t legal and if anyone is getting benefits Centrelink should goose step in
