  1. Hi guys, thanks for all your replys! Not ignoring you all just waiting for my wife to have our second little girl, I'll be killed if I go out fishing at the moment. I'll ne in touch with you all soon.
  2. Ha ha! If only there were two meter kings, what would you stop them with?
  3. Well done mate! We downriggednorth and south head fora total of 5 rats and 3 keepers. Was a little upset at some rock fishos catching a heap of rats and not releasing them. I think fisheries need a 1800 dob in a p$# number.
  4. Well done mate, any size to them and were you of Sydney?
  5. 3 x 2m kings, that would be a world record! Photos please
  6. Same with me today! Downrigged all the markers in the harbour and MH. At one marker we had a heap of rat kings at the back of the boat but they would not take anything. We threw garfish, sluggos and live yakkas at them, they would follow but not strike. Will keep at it!
  7. Sounds good will be in touch soon! All we need is this weather to clear up!
  8. Anyone interested in fishing for kings in the harbor. Must have own gear and be able to reverse a boat trailer down a ramp! Leave from drommoyne
  9. Hi anyone interested in chasing kings tomorrow arvo? Must have own gear and be able to reverse a boat trailer Leave from dramoyne boat ramp.
  10. Hi mate When downrigging How do you hook up the yakka? Do you hook through rhe nose or bridle it up? Thanks
  11. That's a shame. Maybe fishraider should open a section where shops can post prices as I rang around all my local stores. And that price I quoted was the cheapest. Some were selling tje 585 for $2900. Would be great to log on and find all shops prices in one place!
  12. Cheapest I found the tm260 is $1100 furuno 585 $2100 Sports brackets $189 that's $3389 $800 savng
  13. Hey mate with the Aussie $ so good I got it from America, paid $2600 delivered. That included the tm260 1kw transom mount transducer and the sports bracket. Just get on $$$$$$$$$$ and have a look. There's heaps selling them. Payment threw paypal so you can't get ripped either.
  14. Thanks for the offer! I am getting it installed by a local Maine mechanic. But beers and a days fishing still on the cards once it's in! Chris
  15. Hi Jim thanks for the reply. I have to rip out my old sounder and transducer and replace with the 585 and a 1kw transducer, I'm not to keen on drilling into my boat as not to mechanically minded. Would really appreciate a number of a mobile installer. Thanks
  16. Hi guys, I live in the hills region. Does anybody know anyone that can install my new furuno 585 and a transom mount transducer. Thanks in advance chris
  17. Nice king there mate, were you trolling divers or slow trolling livies?
  18. Hi mate maybe do a post and follow someone out there, make sure your boat has the ability to do at least 60nm on a full tank of fuel (a 20ltr tank of spair fuel won't help if your stuck out there) there are plenty of good wind reports out there, just never count on just 1. Life jackets, epirb and flares a must! And after all that pray the fish are on cause it's a long drive if there not!!! Chris
  19. Hi can I ask were Texas is.
  20. Hey Mate, we fished browns as well (I was one of the 60 boats out there in the parking lot today) Could not get our rigs down to the bottom cause of the million gemfish sitting 20m above the bottom! We were getting sharked at 90 meters on nearly every drop. Must be a shitload of makos down there due to the gemfish floating all over browns, I believe the bag limit does more bad then good!
  21. Unlucky boys! But at least you heard the reel scream. What boat is the mad mullet?
  22. Hey guys, if the fish are really shy, buy some plastics called eyes from your local tackle store. There about 2 cm long, bright green in colour and always seem to work when everything else fails,
  23. Hi Guys i know the weather has not been the best but has anyone heard of any action with the fin yet of Sydney? Tuesday is looking good don't know if I should make the trip out to browns. Thanks in advance for any replies! Chris
