Hi guysI am looking for a rod for surf mulloway for a threadline reel. I really like the Wilson Live Fibre series of rods. I have read a few articles published on these, and i believe I would really like one. But i am unsure on which one will suit me. Im not sure what size, weights etc to look for. Do you guys have any tips on what i should be looking at? Also any really good ideas for surf reels? Ill be looking at something cheapish like the DAM Calyber which I have seen quite a lot of, but i would like to hear other peoples personal opinionsThanksMatt

That is very tempting but its not exactly what im after. Whilst it is a great boat, i would rather something with slightly higher sides and a very small cabin up the front. (My mind might change tho) haha. You shouldnt have any troubles selling this boat, it is far better than anything i have seen advertised. What year is the hull if you dont mind me asking?

Thanks for your repliesI am going to store it in a warehouse, so thats no issue, and my tow vehicle is a 2002 hilux 3Litre non turbo diesel. I may do some estry fishing, but i would not be bothered if that wasnt possible, as i would be able to use a mates boat. Ideally I would like to fish all year round with the boat. But i would be selective in when to fish die to weather paterns etcThere would be no more than three people onboard. (Rarely ever 4) and no kids currently would be onboard.Cheers

Hi guysIm loking at buying my first boat soon. I have read lots of conversations regarding this, but i have my own certain requirements. I am looking for something which meets the following criteria. Any help or sujestions would be greatly appreciated.-boat does not need to be new, can be second hand (would obviously like something as new as possible)-The largest target species i would like to go for is snapper, nothing outside the gulf tho. -I would prefer something with a bit deeper sides-It will be my first boat as stated, so i would like something easy to use, stable etc-I dont mind buying

Hi guysI am in the process of planning a trip of a lifetime. A trip to catch my first barra. I am looking at going next year, but i am unsure on many things.-Where really is the best place to go? the Northern Territory, WA or Queensland? -Is it worth doing it off my own back, or should i book in with a tour or lodge type?-What is the best time of year?Im not sure if any of you will be able to help me, but i thought i would ask for some guidance. Hopefully some people have had some experiences.Thanks in advance for your helpMatt

Hi all,Looking at buying my first pair of waders. Not sure what i should be looking for, but something along the lines of fully waterproof, pockets, chest height etc. Is there any advice you can give on brands, what to look for, what not to buy, where to buy etc?Any info would be a great helpThanks

I had a look at the shimano raider and the daiwa gen black today and they both felt very good. I think i will look for something like that.Would 15lb braid be enough for snapper? Cheers

Cheers guys. My budget is about the 100-200 mark.

Hi guysI have a shimano stratic c14 4000 which i want to use for mulloway on soft plastics. Also to use for snapper when i occasionally (couple times a year) go for snapper.I wana suit this to a rod at about 7-8 foot. I have a few questions. What strenth rod would i need for this?

Hi guysAfter years of using bait I thought i would give the soft plastics and lures a good go. After MANY unsuccesfull goes im starting go get over it. I have tried for bream, small mulloway, carp, yellowfin whiting. But yet to get something. Are there any hints or tips that i am missing out on? I have a 2-4 kilo outfit that i use which consists of a shimano jewel rod, stradic c14 reel and 5 pound braid. So i really am targeting bream.Any help would be appreciatedThanksMatt
