    Do you guys speak up when you see others taking what you personally consider to be too many? What about illegal catches (undersize or protected)?

    I feel that's for the authorities to deal with, and the person already knows what they are doing is wrong and will most likely be caught eventually.

    What do you guys think?

    I'll tell em, definitely not going to fight about it,  very unlikely to actually kick the bucket in. If it seems they can be educated I'll try and educate. But then I tell people to take their crap or put it in bin when they leave their rubbish everywhere at the park. It feels better to do something than nothing.

    Why will they most likely be caught? How many undersized fish have you caught since you last had a visit from fisheries? 

     

  2. I reckon it's incredibly liberating to leave the esky at home. Takes away the pressure to bring home dinner. Dropped fish aren't as bad and so on

    Or even better to catch as much as you need, 3 lizards is all we'll eat,  and continue with no intention of keeping any more.

    the old Victorians are a strange lot, determined to max out at every opportunity  and taking the freezer and generator o interstate trips!

     

  3. Where, spit bridge to Roseville ish

    launch tunks park or Roseville 

    what, kings or the pelagic of the month depending on the season or other species. 

    gear, if it's in the open 4 pound and some patience, if it's amongst the poles and moorings much heavier plus some luck. 

    its flat flat in most conditions 

    get out there and explore!

     

  4. Not much for me to report today, a few squid, 

    BUT,

    if you're thinking of hitting the harbour in the next couple of days, middle harbour is where it will happen, the sounder was looking like it was in demo mode! bait is stacked and big arches all around, just not interesting in what I could offer today. Had 1 shot but missed it.

     

    its a shitty photo but I could've taken 20 more just like it

  5. I don't need to try it, there's often 4 or 5 or 6 people already giving it a go. 

    Like last night.

    "how is tonight, getting a couple?"

    "nah nothin"

    "mmm"

    "yeah this place used to be good "

    well maybe if you shut down the ^%#}{] disco you might be a chance 

  6. So it's well documented that squid and fish like to hang around bridges and pontoons with a bit of lighting, so if 4 or 5 or 6 people stand on a wharf with industrial level head lights and turn them on turn them off, strobe them, point them in the water at their feet, scan them over the water at warp speed and aim then at every hint of a splash, 

     

     

    will that turn the fish on and on and get them biting?????

  7. Up to 8 trawlers doing laps of the mouth of the Hawkes is normal, they do it 5 days a week and give it a rest on the weekend cos they care for the fishery. Or maybe because they're not allowed .

    oh good fishing too!

    Really? I enjoy watching ET. How come you don't like it?

     I Reversed my navara and launched the Haines hunter then fired up the etec. Kept looking through my spotters at the lowrance sounder. 

    Then we cast halcos on my shimano rod from Kmart. . .
