Hi Team, Looking to purchase a pair of fishing waders. Use: Fly, rocks and beach. I have been eyeing off the stocking foot waders, im attracted to the fact you can pick what type of shoes to wear i.e. rock boots etc. My concerns: What type of boot can you use on the sand? i dont want them to get bogged with water and sand. I was looking at the zip up neoprene ones. Questions: Any brands to recommend, problems encountered (did they fill up with water etc) Cheers.

I agree, i dont like the vanish. first time using it, i think ill go back to TD sensor. For one, it looks like 6lb and it not as smooth as the sensor which results in the line going curly when its had a couple of good stretches. I got some sunline so ill chuck that on too. Got some redemption the other day when i pulled two 32cm fish out of the sticks, not long but bloody fat and heavy. I have noticed how fat the bream are lately, must be a lot of food about the harbour atm. Cheers

haha chuck it mine.... My mate had a PJ in his tank, they are heaps destructive. Push their heads into crevices looking for inverts so you might get some rock avalanches which could result in scratched glass etc. Have a look at a bamboo cat shark, they look awesome, are smaller then epaulette sharks and heaps more interesting. I could probably find you a snowflake or zebra moray for cheap. Would suit your tank perfectly, just make sure the lids shut tight lol.

I have the same rod, first off its really heavy. especially mine which has a big bloody penn spin fisher v on it. i WAS USING 30LB mono which didnt work well casting wise so downsized to 20lb platypus and now it casts alot better. im also considering braid for this reel as it will hold miles of it. try downsizing to 20lb qualirty mono, reduce knot size. dont no what your using now but slim beauty works well.

Hi Raiders, Looking for 9 - 10 foot rod for a 300 sized TD Luna - This is a traditional styles baitcaster. Want to use it for general purpose (bait and luring). The only thing i can find is a TD Sensor surf but too big. amy suggestions appreciated, Cheers

Hey Raiders, Had a good session on the parra yesterday using z-mann grubz. Unfortunately, i also got dusted up in a big way. The only bream i managed to get out of the snags were small ones. One bruiser that i lost, would have been at the 40cm mark based on the fight. It went harry and ended up busting me off around some oysters. I also caught this.... im calling it for a eastern frog fish. You should have heard the croak it let off. They actually hit pretty hard but become seaweed for the rest of the fight. Cheers,

Hi Raiders, I have an office in Epping and Rhodes is just down the road... Any spots along the parra to fish along here? mainly using plastics. I would love to try for some blackies if they can be caught around here too. Thanks in advance

yeah i have pumped blood worms before thats why i thought this would work lol. I think the blood worm is a lazier and slower worm though. I am going to give beach worming a serious crack, armed with this new info. Thanks raiders!

New Years Fishing Resolution 2015! What's yours?
PRED-ATOR replied to adamski's topic in Fishing Chat
Mate, for me its getting more fishing done. I get so caught up in work and making money I forget why im even doing it. I want to target a specific species each time I go fishing to increase my hook up rate. I hope you meet your objectives! -
nice! i saw one down at drummoyne the other day. didnt expect to see one there it was absolutely enormous. Mate, if you get any interesting looking prawns let me know i might be interested for the fish tank. Cheers
