  1. Rob is a living legend. Regularly goes out of his way to help people (me included with a few reel repairs).Re rods, I had a Sabre blank built up last year for a trip to the FWC. Highly recommended.
  2. @Wisdom I look forward to you eating your hat on a number of issues in the not too distant future
  3. @ale you do realise that if the jetty is removed the area will be opened up anyway. Why should those with boats be the only ones left with access?
  4. Tacklebags, thank you, you are a voice of reason Re Brett's comment that 'This in essence is a secure feeding zone that they can stop at whilst travelling up and down the gulf to breed.'It then bewilders me that you want to protect an en-route feeding ground to aggregation point, but then once Snapper get there (upper Gulf) you are then happy, and indeed advocating, to catch them while they are in the act? Sounds crazy to me.This jetty is not just about Snapper. It is a section of beach, and an already built deep-water platform that the community should have access to.

It seems that your attitude relates more to the 'not in my backyard' mentality, as evidenced by your comment re being strongly against spatial closures in Upper Gulf St Vincent.It seems that you're fine, and indeed an advocate for protection, but just not at any of the places or marks that you or your club personally fish, or by the methods that you choose to use.It's double standards like these that have led to a lack of unity and the fact that while recreational fish
  7. This is for urhookedfish, because I'm sick of reading some of the uneducated crap you post on here.For someone so concerned with conservation of one particular species – why are you the president of a club that focuses on the catch and release of said species that is highly susceptible to barotrauma?You realise a lot of these fish die post-release don’t you?Who does more damage – someone that catches and keeps two +60cm Snapper, or someone that catches and releases 4 +60cm Snapper, only to have three die later that day or week?Do you think it’s a coincidence that PIRSA have increased t
