  1. so how did bass point go mate, couple of weeks ago i seen people pulling bonnies out by the buckets

    one of these chicks i seen went to pick the bucket up but couldnt because it was filled with 10 or more

    bonnies so this big fellow picked it up and all ready had another bucket in his other hand with the same amount

    and this bloke was only 1 of many other people with the same amount.

    awww mate went soo well had such a great time fishing for bonnies omn light gear is a blast

    thanks for all the info from every1

  2. I just had an idea wouldn't be good if we a fishraider aaplication for the iPhone. I think it would be great for those who have iPhone that they can access fishraider any time anywhere. But just as I said it's only an idea.

    Cheers Joe

    bets idea by far

  3. Mate, since you going to South, on the way down/back just stop at either Coal Terminal Break Wall or Bass Point. Just stand there for few minutes and observe how other people catching and learn from them.

    Prepare yourself a rig that already loaded (such as a float - sinker - swivel - trace - a skirt - bead - a hook,the bead there to stop the hook pulls through the skirt)and just in case you do not have the skirt just ask one of the guys they will happily to get you one.

    Please use FC 30 lb trace about two metres long and i am sure you be on it.

    Good luck and have a good trip.

    Cheers,

    thanks mate

    bass pt is already on the agenda soo hopefully i can get myself set up right learn the techniques and catch my self a few bonnies

  4. thank i will get myself one of those and definentley trying out that rig

    id love to take you up on the offer but i already have a campsite booked to take the missus fishing for the weekend down the south coast hopefully she doesnt pull out a bonnie before i do

    thanks for the pointers

  5. mate, get your self a "mack bait lure" in blue stripes 4" not any bigger you may also get them on the Redhead colour as well , Avoca Beach / Rock ledge usually produces a fair few bonnies where abouts are you located? as i will be heading up to avoca beach this weekend most probably if you want come down as well and check out some of the techniques, and try some out if the bonnies arnt in plague proportion it takes a lil while to get some but hold on when you do :).

    i use 3 methods as follows (i have landed rather large bonnies using all these methods):

    Pilly Under a float

    Spinning Mack Baits and/or metals

    Or Float Popper spinning squid skirts setup like below:

    FLOAT

    PLASTIC SQUID SKIRT

    BEAD

    Decent sized hook (i use gamakatsu Octopus hooks in a size 4-5)

  6. Just Wondering Pal.

    What Is your current technique for catching Bonnies and what gear are you using and have your techniques worked in the past???

    I have never caught a Bonnie but have seen them caught simply by people floating Pillies and spinning from the rocks...

    Hope I can help in some way...

    Regards,
