this time of year Brett I'd bet my left :c they are full of malting blueys

your a funny yet cruel man Jack lol :lol:I dont fish for mullys or snapper regularly, but me and my mate have certainly started noticing a pattern with snapper at wallaroo jetty.. they do not like full moons or anything near..we've found less moonlight the more they are inclined to bite, tide heights dont seem to matter that much either.. Although im embarrassed to admit we haven't landed one yet (apart from some undersized), had some awesome runs and break offs though! one nearly pulled my mate over the rails lol, and it wasnt a ray..kingie maybe? who knows, but we're determined to land "what

this thing must be costing the owners a fortune to keep it docked at the wharf, and i imagine Vitera would be loosing a fortune not being able to dock other ships in its spot.. If i was the major of lincoln i'd be pretty pissed at the whole situation

some more interesting reading here..http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/latest/15183510/govt-was-warned-about-trawler-risk/This government is becoming more laughable as days go by!I'll be sure to take a kodak moment when im in lincoln with this montrocity behind me at xmas with a big fat middle finger pointed at the camera!

yeh well thats the question, how the hell do you rig up a live crab lol?you'd have to soften them up a bit i reckon, ganged circles under the belly should suffice

thats it, this confirms what I've always thought of doing lol..from now on at wallaroo I will be riggin a live bluey for snapper! I'll post a report when I finally land one great pics Jack, thanks!

Flathead for me, closely followed by mulloway and kgw

If you get a Stella T-curve combo for your b.day im going to get your mum to adopt me! And Jack will be sobbing in the corner! :dry: :dry: lmao..i think im being a bit too optimistic, will most likely get a pack of jox! lol :laugh:we'll see though, been drilling it into her that it'd be a good combo for kingies at Coffins

wow awesome catch in the lakes! well done no snapper?

awesome Jack! She's a keeper (the missus I mean) beautiful cake too!My mums got something big plaanned for my bday this weekend but wont even give me a clue to what it is! Im hoping its a t-curve/stella combo i been wishing for (fingers crossed!) :woohoo:

and yes, Dave is a top bloke! fixed one of my starlo's broken tips for a grand total of $4 lol.. still going strong to this day and it gets abused to all hell as its one of my oldest, I've even run over it a few times

Im now a proud owner of 3 C14 Stradic's, including UHF's 4000 which he caught that impressive red his pic (thanks mate) had a few hook ups off wallaroo jetty with it but yet to land one unfortunately, they are clever bastards there for sure! Ive invested in a shit load of circle hooks so hope to fix that soon PS, the drag sound beautiful when you get a good run!I also have a 3000 and 2500, both unused as yet but hope to christen them on my lincoln trip over new years. You will love it mate Ive never owned or tried Daiwa's but Shimano have always been good to me

your not wrong Del, think last count was roughly $600 on lures, plastics, jig heads etc, and I'l probably still end up getting more stuff when we get there lol.. fairly confident we'll come back with a decent haul ;)Just Me, I dont really have a particular outfit just for squidding, but mainly use a starlo stix tournament pro with a stradic 3000, 15lb braid, bit overkil but it casts a mile.. I have a new outfit which will be primarily used for squid/gar as soon as I spool up the reel, its a 7" Raider II with a Stradic ci4 2500, 8lb sufix braid.. this outfit is unbelivably light and should be g

yeh its a shame they dont come in 3.0 size.. Are they heavy talbo?Ive just bought 3 to try..liked these colours the best:http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270827810246?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/270827810197?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/370547829402?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649So far my pt lincoln trip is getting VERY expensive tackle wise lol

Just came accross these, pricey but look awesome! Anyone tried them, and more importantly had any luck on them?http://www.rayannes.com.au/daiwa-shimano-reels-australia/lures/squid-jigs/gan-craft/gan-craft-squid-jigs-uo-jya-evil-fish-29-95/

Steak? isnt this a fishing forum lol? i dont eat steak much as my teeth are fubar, but ive always preferred medium well done, seeing a steak bleeding all over makes me wanna :sick: in fact my mate that normally does the barbie has been ordered my many people to cook his last lol

never had any problems if cleaned and frozen asap, we'd cook with the head on too

Leather jackets are seriously under rated, mostly cos they dont cook them properly, well imo anyway.. My sister used to catch bucket loads at pt vic and they're one of my favourit table fish.. fry them coated in just flour, vegeta with some garlic and parsley.. obviously you skin them first but damn! beautiful!

Of course they do...just like they comprehensively police metro landbased with all those manpower resources they have... :whistle: Although by the sound of it I reckon that was probably the very catch inspected by PIRSA to determine that 72 whiting equates to 7 kilos of fillets for Possession Limit purposes! :evil:Hey Kon, cheers for the reply.. I respect you saying you come here for a holiday etc, its certainly a great place to visit for a fishing trip! And hell everyone needs a holiday lol, and im sure oure our regional friends greatly appreciate tourists income But its very well known tha

and this is why victorians flock here in droves during december/january, because they dont get to grow anywhere as big over there! I had no idea 28cm was their legal length, stupidity at its finest.. had a good laugh watching some videos on youtube of victorian snapper fishing, where they carry on when they catch a decent panny lol, they would most likely have a cardiac episode or get pulled overboard if they got a beast we have here! i hope these idiots get everything they deserve On a similar topic, i recently procured a good amount of whiting heads from a VERY well known fish monger (fo

cheers for the replys guys, seems its 50/50 atm lol.. im with clark though.. mate im heading to lincoln after xmas, will me doing all nighters off the jetty and wharf most nights, catch up for a beer if you see me, not hard to miss, electric wheelchair with strike hook sticker on the side lol

hey guys, just wanted to get some opinions on how to put a tommy on a old school squid jig as me and a guy at work were discussing this today. I've always done it head first so the head sits near the hooks but he reckons hes had better luck doing it the other way round, i was always of the opinion it looks more natural head first cheers :dry:

done

look like thresher sharks..amazing how close to shore they can get!
