Don't throw those pike away, they are the best king and jew live bait you will get!!!! Send them back down with a hook it their backs and hang on!!!!!!!!!

You need to learn to Duck sometimes when fly fishing!
DON'T use your wrist, hold the rod as if you are giving the thumbs up, press down with your thumb and wrist so you can't use your wrist! use your forearm to cast!
Otherwise you will loose strength and controle!

Wow, what a learning process! Decidind on the boat, then the motor, sounder, gps, radio, so many options! BUT good fun!
Do they make a hand held 27 meg?
Thanks for your help guys.
Howard.
What to get? in an open tinny a hand held may be more convenient, no arial, but what about range. They are only 1 watt compared to 4 in the larger units?

Have a 2.7 ltr 2 wd hilux towing around 1 ton. I do a lot of clutch slipping on steep slopes! 1 st gear is way too high for a work vehicle! no problem once your moving.

Well done!
Mainbar/ Bonnie vale are on my to do list. they sound like a great place to fish and camp.
SP fishing is so exciting, the anticipation is addictive!

Thanks Beefaman,
The price difference is not a concern, how Quiet they are in comparison is the burning question, and is it worth 5 hp?
The boat is rated 15 to 25.
In the next few weeks i will be buying a 385 quintrex explorer.
The BIG question is what to put on it?
I need to be able to lift it on and off so have a 50 kg weight limit.
The contenders are: 20 hp 4 stroke Honda
or
25 hp 2 stroke Yamaha
Both are around 50 kg
How much quieter is the 4 stroke, is it worth dropping 5 hp for it?
Thanks
Howard!
