  1. hey

    good report, sounds like it was a good trip. I'm heading down to camp out of Patonga and hopefully smash a few jewies too

    fished off juno last week and landed one just under 4kg on the run out, plenty of bonito around and got busted off a couple of times by something bigger than the jew we caught, most probably a shark.

    we fished with some live yakkas, fresh squid and some bonnito strips too

    where did you get your squid?

  2. mate I feel your pain at having failed the test. I didn't get mine first time either, and when looking back, to be honest I probably didn't deserve the time that I passed.

    It took me a good couple of years before I was truly competent behind the wheel. That didn't stop me driving like a dickhead with my mates though, thankfully I never had a serious accident.

    Like some of the other guys here I have held a variety of vehicle licences and spent heaps of time on the road with work and have come across heaps of accidents that can be mostly put down to a lack of common sense and poor basic driving skills.

    After spending a large amount of time on two wheels over the last 10 years, it has given me a real appreciation for the amount of dickheads out there on the road, particularly P platers. This is not directed just at you, but as a nation we really need to increase driver education and skills. maybe the L's needs to go for longer, with more hours, or a compulsary subject needs to be run through schools from Yr 6 up?

    what ever the case, I hope that you pass your test next time round

    cheers

  3. Hussar and I are heading to the bay on thurs for a mid week fish. I'm stoked because I haven't been out for what seems like a lifetime.

    Are there many kings still around, and where have people had success lately. I was thinking of trying around the channel markers just off mol point

    thanks

  4. I was spewing that i couldn't make this, it looks like it was an absolute cracker of a day. Just want to say a big thanks to Ross ( flightmanager) for organising it. It's because of the efforts that you ( and the rest of the admin and members) continuously make, that make this site so great.

    Good on you guys, hope to catch you at the next one!

  5. Hi everyone,

    Just signed up and this is my first report. A few weekends ago, went out to Dee WHy on a charter to go for Salmon and Jewies of the beach. Cast out, adn WHAM! Something big grabs onto the gangs. Start reeling in, light drag, no line pulled out, thought must be a tailor. GUiding the line in on my Alvey, and suddenly, twenty metres of line rips off the reel and burns my fingers :mad3: .

    I look down, and the spool is tangled. After hurrying to untangle it, thinking the fish must be off, I finally start pulling again. I got him in the surf, and he takes another run. Finally get him in, and after a 5 minute fight, an 80cm, 4kg Salmon is at my feet. :1yikes::biggrin2: . Very Happy. Had a jewie 2 but he busted off.

    DOes anyone know a good spot to catch yakka's. My spot has been banned by the fisheries, so I need to find a landbased spot for my bait!

    henners
