I used 10Kg line at least!!!,,,,,,,,, I dont want to lose one!!!!!! specially if you get a big mother on!!

Can anybody PM me the location of an apparent fishing hole/drop off that is supposed to be out from the Novatel off brighton beach botany Bay?? I am told there is one out from Ramsgate beach as well,,, I have cruised around with the sounder trying to find them but with no luck Anthony

You can buy tracking devices for boats and trailers......like the ones for cars

I catch fresh fish outside, bring them back to Kyeemah boat ramp, gut and scale them on the ledge with birdshit there (why has the council not put in a even small cleaning table?) and wash them in the cooks river,,,,,,fresh fish out the door!!! hee hee

I see that Raiders have a designated fishing chat channel 17(VHF) and 86(27MEG),,,,, are there any other channels that other fishos normally use?? Anthony

I use them always,,, they are the best IMO,, I have them for sale if you would like to buy them in lots of 10 (only in 5/0 hook 2 different colours),, $5 each= $50 for 10 + postage,,,I couldnt see postage more than $5 so would be $55 including postage for 10 sure beats paying $12-$15 for the Black Magic ones email me idolzz@hotmail or call me 0414334412 Anthony

If your on a budget,, if you have a 'smart phone' as in new techo phone eg. iphone,new nokia You can download NAVIONICS Marine map, I downloaded it to my Nokia N8, it does tracking and has a really good clear map, You can put waypoints in,as far as I know, I havent really used it alot as my boat has a GPS but it is a great second option, it works pretty much like you normal Marine GPS, it doesnt have as many fancy functions. I think I paid about $12-$15 for it(the application),, i think the one for an iphone is about $30 It is a cheap option that may get you out of trouble one day if you needed it PS I dont own or work for that company PSS: The download took me quite some time to do and instal,, but in the end it worked

PM SENT Anthony

I fitted one of these to my centre console,,, Yes they are flimsy,,,, I strengthened mine up,,, i put a plate of aluminium across the two upright poles to mount my outboard control box (on the left side 2 poles),, i put another 2 wide aluminium thick strips above this one each side to mount my nav lights to, I put a perspex screen on the front of it,,,, and I ran another 2 long strips from the front of the top(near where the rope holding the canvas) down on an angle downwards going across and attached to the front upright pole and then attaching at the rear upright pole(near where the bend is),, All alloy was riveted with large pop rivets,,, It is now very sturdy,,,,

sounds like the seal is dry,,,, jack it up and spray wd40 into the inner side of the seal, try to lift the seal up a bit as you do it (on the inside) ,,,,if the noise goes away then i suggest you get a small screw driver and lift the seal lip up and place some grease under it

Great idea to have the doors/tackle storage incorporated into them!!!

I ran a thicker positive and negative fused wire to a Buss bar to the console of my boat,,, then every electrical component can be wired back to that through a switch panel.......All lighting on my boat is LED (Nav lights, anchor light, and general lighting (LED strips)to save the battery,, i also have a 10watt solar panel wired into the system through a regulator

Im not a fan of Electric reels,,,, i dont see the sport in it,,, mind you im lazy and dont fish over 100mtrs,,, It shits me ( I mus be gettin old!) pullin fish up out of 100mtrs with a 4.2 ratio reel.....

they normally shit emselves overnight,,,(with airrator going all night) out of 15 yakkas approx half survive to make it back into my live bait tank witch gives them fresh sea water,,,,,i find poddy mullet survive much better nearly all over night

Great catch,,, best eating fish IMO!

I recon it had a 25Kg Kinghy on it!!!! *smile*

Best thing to do is just buy a new complete bung assembly and put in...

xxxxhhhggg welding in Minto (cousin of Dave xxxxhhhggg, Tackleworld fishing show fame)

Great enginuity,,,, it starts to make them expensive lures as those hooks are prolly as expensive as the lure itself???

I bought the bottle kits and serviced mine myself (its not rocket science!),,, i dont what the 'law' is and im sure the Maritime service wouldnt know either, as there are many different circumstances(yeah service them once a year),, , the government makes the rules but never actually clarifies exactly what is required, Im a mechanic by trade,,, does that give me the right to service this device??? or somebody with a lesser qualification that is an "authorised agent"??? I know my life jackets were serviced correctly..... Anthony

I have a Stessco 625 Shotgun centre cab plate boat,,, i have never had a problem with it,,,, Im sure there may be better boats out there,,, before i bought it i was going to buy a Barcrusher but it was too expensive,,, then had my eye on a Formosa

I do RTA inspections (Im not trying to drum up business!) As long as the lights work, it isnt rusted, isnt bent out of shape, has good tyres and mudguards and the coupling is in good order you shouldnt have too many problems. and yes no probs if the boat is still on there! Anthony

Im happy to come fishing with you,,, I have all my own gear,,,plus! I have 2 boats but would like to fish with others (I get sick of being the boss!) I have fished Port Kembla and Belambi alot and have a few good spots,,, im happy to pitch in for fuel,,,, an i will supply all the bait and burley. I can only fish sundays (normally morning.. 6amish till lunch time-ish should get us a good haul of fish!) Anthony 0414334412
