it would have to be my penn affinity 2000, its cought me striped tuna,mack tuna,dolphin fish,salmon,tailor,snapper, bream, flattys,whiting, kingfish,bonito and trevally

hey buddy, take 2 20l buckets with you. catch mullet. change water before you leave, fill the spare bucket up. get yourself a mains power airator(for gold fish) put airrator in with mullet, each bucket of water will last 2-3 days maybe more. you can feed them if you want but not too much..good luck..

hello to all the raiders out there, im heading up to sandon river in a few weeks and would like some extra info if possible. i will be using lures in the river(flattys and bream) and maybe some outside stuff with my fellow travellers. i cant see any oyster racks on google earth but would be interested to know if theres any around. any info would be greatly appreciated..thanks in advance..stephen..

they also have peg like teeth,with only a few top and bottom..

hello all, just a heads up that the 24c water has come into the 50m mark off terrigal. also there is small mack tuna everywhere from the haven all the way out to texas. we spun up 2 tiny dolphin fish that were with the tuna. cheers.. stevo..

i also caught one on the weekend, from 100m

hey buddy, i hooked one yeaterday about 80-100kg and it fought very well. it took about 150m of 50lb line and slogged it out on the way back in. youll definatly need wire though we got done 3 times first before i brought out the big gear and wire..

just check that the boat is on enough of an angle for the water to drain away after it rains. with our boat if you put the bungs in at home and take the out at the ramp about 20-50lts of water comes out after a descent rain..

terrigal boat ramp is the closest.

the entrance/exit to brisbane water is imo pretty safe under most circumstances except for the obvious. very strong winds opposing the tide and or large swells. it would all depend on the size of your boat,experience and weather conditions..cheers.. stevo..

what sort of boats are you guys fishing out of??

take a look at the penn affinaty also..

its a grinner of some sort

hello all, i would like to know how some of you guys and gals can tell the difference between a spanish mack or a shark after having a few big bust offs today. ill set the scene for you all, we had the berley bucket working and aided by bigger baits and whole pillies floating down, water temp was 23.7 deg. cast the whole pillie out unweighted and let sink, wait a few minutes and the struggle to get the rod out of the holder as the fish takes a run of about 50-80m. after tightening up the drag and still getting busted i decided to loosen it up on the last fish and let it run under normal drag pressure and it finally stopped near the surface after about 100m and i was starting to win some line back then it cut me off.. so twice it was my knots going under heavy drag and twice it was frayed and sliced at the end while useing 30lb braid and 30lb leader.. please help me fishraiders...cheers stevo..

excellent report, thanks for shareing

hey buddy, sounds interesting but it looks like it will be a rather large book. are you goind to have info on estuary,deepsea,rock/beach,game,lbg and fresh water?? cheers..stevo..

anyone??

hello all, with my young bloke saying he wanted to see a shark up close i got a small gummy shark today and i would like to know your opinions on the best way to cook the fillets. its about 3-4 kgs. so whats the best, shallow fry, deep fry, oven or something else??? thanks in advance..stevo..

might help if you put up your location..sydney,nth beaches, central coast..?

try as light line as you can handle, burley with small pieces of bread floating on top. size 6 hook, no weight and just float it out like the burley..good luck

just buy a 2011 day to a page calender and fill it in every time you go out......

a 50cm trevally at boambee creek when i was about 13. the only fish for the day...

mate you cant get much better than SCHNEIDER its a tad thicker than most but imo its the best..

nice catch of flattys there..well done:1fishing1:
