yeah mate, I did it accordingly from youtube video Like i said, I caught over 45+ bonnies and salmons for last knot. Oh yeah, I notice something as well. I lost the line when I cast it for first time and 2nd time. Could it be because of knot hitting the rod guide?

Kinda happen to me at beginning as well. I was using 65gram metal and I couldn't catch anything so i switch to 40g. Once I switch to 40 gram metal. I couldn't believe that I got one even 1 or 2 cast Play with the speed as well. Sometimes, I wouldn't catch anything on fast speed then i'll try to slow down bit.

Thanks for suggestions guys I just did slim beauty knot. I hope it wont slip away this time When I looked at my braid, i notice that my albright knot was still perfect and just my mono slipped away. I even dropped few drops of super glue as well.

Thanks for reply ppl @ locodave: I was thinking about using bandaid too. If i use just braid for spinning, you think fish can see the line? My braid is green colour. @ leo: I was using double uni when i lost it at first time @ scaffsta: I just watched video on slim beauty. I might give it ago.

Hi All, I'm currently having some problem with my fishing line. Mono always slip away with albright knot after fishing for few times. I have even tried with improved albright with super glue and I lost my mono line again (float + size 6 ball sinker + hook + pilchard). My last joint was before just X-mas and I caught over 45+ bonnies and salmons. To give you details of my setup, i'm using Seagate 4500h has spooled up with 30lb braid then approx 6-7 meters of 40lb mono. I just need mono to cast so that I won't cut my hand with braid. So i'm just wondering if you guys have the same problem or am I doing something wrong? Please give me some suggestion Thanks. Max

wow wow. That was massive bonnie haha. Nice catch buddy.

Awesome. Thanks for advice mate I'll go day time if its not too windy

Yeah, just gotta be careful there at Pier 2. One of my mate lost his wallet there when he was fighting the fish. Sometimes, that place is packed out over the weekend. Let me know if you are still not sure about the location.

Hi Guys, just quick few questions on Hill 60. Is that Hill 60 is referring to rocks behind Sewage Treatment Works? I'm planning to go take photos and fishing with my gf on this sat. I saw it from some photography forum about someone took some beautiful shots at "honey comb rocks/Hill 60 @ Port Kembla". So i'm just wondering if that is the place? I'll be taking my spin rod to see if I can get something as well. North or South of hill 60 will be better for fishing. Thanks. Max

Awesome mate. Thanks for sharing setup as well

Nice mate. Where about bass point? I went there 2 days ago as well, way too many people at North of bass point lol. Couldn't fish at all.

Good luck mate Let us know how you go.

Thanks for info, Triton I'll try next week. Do they have any gate there? What time you reckon is the best?

Nice. Btw, i heard my fren said it's quite dangerous there and you might fall into those concrete. You think it's safe?

haha, I might see you on the train when i go work tmr. I saw people fish there every day. On weekend, its like market lol. Good luck mate. Make sure take some pics and share with us

Damn, i never got the luck for king fish yet. Nice catch I'll keep trying haha.

OMG. Very nice mate. I'm still chasing my jewfish

Very nice I'll try with cooked prawn soon Would you be able to pin point the location? I have checked and notice that bit of walk towards water in West Head

Nice mate. I'm still chasing for my first kingy

Botanic Garden is not a good place tho. I went to Peir 2 on Sunday 6am. There was like 10 people there and no spots left. So I went to Clifton garden and got there like 6:15am. Again, there were like 9 people !!! Wasn't even high tide and people were there. I fished for like 30 mins and a guy caught tailor, I would say it was under size but he kept it. I notice few other guys caught small fish too but they never put it back to water Stayed for another 10 mins and I left to Bradley's head to have a look. Wasn't that nice either lol. Finally I decided to go back home at 7am to sleep haha. FAILED

Congrat on your first kingie mate I'm hoping to get one too.

Nice, I just looked up google map. It seems that end of botanic garden could be good too. Garden Island looks really good spot but I don't think you can fish there.

Thanks for reply Musty. I know it's dangerous. Maybe I'll just try out at Balmain area until i can look for someone to take me around

Thanks for advices David88 and Garry. I'll try it this weekend

Hi Guys, I'd like to chase some king fish. I never caught King fish and I'm fairly noob at fishing I heard that there are lot of kings around Sydney Harbour now and hope to chase some kings or bonito from rock or around harbour (landbase). As I'm inexperience in rock fishing and limited knowledge to rock platforms, I don't want to go by myself. I'm willing to travel and preferable around syd harbour. Or if you have any good and safe spots for newbie, please let me know This sat tide is kinda good and if it's not raining, I'll go alone. Your name: Max Your Location: Sydney City Fishing technique: Rock Fishing Availability: Saturday Only Preferred location: Happy to travel Provide your own gear? I have 9ft and 13ft rod + reels Thanks for reading
