Hi Guys, I can confirm the 4m shark at the same spot as your photos last Friday 17th Feb at 12 noon. Put out a juicy 30 cm mackerel unweighted on a large hook with 1m wire trace. In the mean time pulled in a Kingy on the other rod, 3 minutes later I hear the ZZZZZZZ, pick up the small TLD overhead and then ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ 100 m of line peals off. Changed to maximum drag and it slowed him a little, real too small for this beast. Then the line went slack, waited a few seconds and started to real it in. He must have swam towards me and cut the main mono 40 kg line cleaner than any surgeons knife. Yes he is out there, and has a No.6 hook and 1m wire trace hanging from his mouth. Too many things against me, anchored, only me on the boat and had other lines out. What a experience!

This post is for a friend A Sea ray 175 sport, 135 Hp Mercruzer four stroke, had a dent in the hull that was being fixed. The boat mechanic gave it back to him. The next day he decided to go out and the filled the tank, he and his family got to the ramp and they smelt a large amount of fuel and his wife said to take it back to the mechanic, reluctantly he did. When they got home he opened the bilge and their was spome 60 litres of fuel in the bilge. They the called the fire brigade and they emptied the fuel from the boat. The next day the the mechanic said it was his apprentices fault as he forgot to attach the fuel line......can you belive that??? Anyway.....the indside has been flushed now, can the fuel effect the fiberglass hull?? Note fuel was in their for approx 4 hrs.

Hi Guys, Went out yesterday Thursday afternoon 9/12 to Molinex just before max low tide and Bare island for zero. Some small surface fish came and went, never to be seen again. BB has not really happend for me lately. Water temp 18 deg, flat as a billard table and humid. Nice time for a quiet beer!!
