Saddle up boys the Bulls are back in town

Lumitec Seablaze X - the bright models vs their base version
just google them there is plenty of info and their website and youtube videos too.
got them from the US

I did not want to drill thru transom and ever have to worry about hidden rot
they mounted with 3M 5200 which will rip boat apart before it falls off
they meant to be mounted flush thru transom tho

If you want to bother installing underwater lights do it properly with rated LEDs not the pretend things or you will be very disappointed and won't even really know they are turned on
like this

My boat

Hey fellas
I am looking for a boatless person to ideally become part of our regular crew. Mostly fish weekends but when weather and conditions are good try to get the occasional weekday in also to not let good opportunity go by
do not fish BAD weather, I have better things to do with my time and dont have to boost my ego showing my toughness doing it
sometime short notice as I have 2 young kids and have to work around this sometimes or if weather suddenly goes good or bad forecast
My regular fishing mate (Rami) now came from exactly this forum section here when he posted 2 year ago
It's not about money , my old regulars have dropped off due to commitments. You do not need to be professional but boating experience is preferred. i can handle boat fully myself at ramp already full drive on/drive off.
I have EVERYTHNG, gear , big expensive pretty new 2300 Noosacat ( which if any of you use Botany ramp would have seen as its the only one).So no gear is to be brought, only food you may want. Fuel contribution great.
NO cleaning required I do all when I return home, just help at dock setting up, packing down boat.
Fish for everything from easy days flathead / reef fishing in close to chasing tuna in winter and blue eye /Gemfish at Browns and chasing marlin and Dollies in the summer coming now
Only non smokers and no smart arses on boat, just easy good times
MUST NOT get sea sick
I always launch at foreshore drive botany
I am 39 finance professional from Coke ( so free drinks too)Cheers Matt

Those fish were taken on Sunday
-
Thank you finin for such detailed knowledgeable reports yet again
When you say too wide? Do u mean 60nm or less or more?
-
Just all how you setup and your process you follow
I can easily manage self launch and retrieve on my 7m 2.8 ton Noosacat
Very simple with a boat catch device and drive on and off trailer
In 4 years never a drama

B164
Hole drilled in bottom of my boat
Wet face flush mount

Make sure you also on auto and don't have a depth range set or it will only try to reach that
-
I run 1kw airnar b164 with lowrance hds gen2
There is no reason why u cannot get crystal clear Browns
On occasions when I pull up there set to 50 htz amd for no reason it can take a min or 2 to find initial bottom reading and then I never lose it rest of day despite driving all around to re position drift etc
I just leave it and it sorts itself while u getting gear ready anyway
Next day it may find initial bottom reading instantly
-
U need to have it set to 50 htz not 200
You will read 600 easily

have used boatnames.com.au numerous times
great service, quality and range
come in mail from Tassie in day or so
can simulate online what will look like
have used their graphics also

Yes bermi today
-
D.E.A.D I have heard
not surprisingly
-
See this is pic off Sydney now
Cross hare in middle of pic is already 100 km out
-
Not sure what charts you looking at
But
Expect to only find 22-23 degree water with current running straight down from north
If You looking for cool water it's a long way away still and sitting 250 km offshore at least
-
And yes while game is quiet the blue eye are ON
This last week
-
we ran yesterday
was very manageable, swell was up a bit in morning but not breath of wind so still manged 18-20 kts run out
we were expecting to find that break north of brown in about 300 ftms since it had been advancing rapidly from that outdated pic up the posts now
BUT we hit it inside the shelf at bait station
wild rapids, birds, green going to blue and 21 to 24 over 50 m
then the swells stood up abit with southerly swell running into the current pushing about 2 kts from north, once on cool side sea settled
we thought we on a cracker but could only pull small dollies from it
It ran diagonal from there into deeper water to be behind browns in about 350 fthms
but overall VERY quiet on game fishing front yesterday even for boys out much wider which was our original plan too
ocean almost glassed out for run home in arvo too

Sent you a PM Sean
Video of our Blue from Sunday
in Gamefishing Reports
Posted
Here is a short clip of the Blue that we found inside 12 mile on Sunday in 23.4 purple water. After 1 hour fight the hooks pulled but we were still well away from winning at that stage, he was just too good.
Reports from previous few days had fish holding closer to shelf but water seemed to have continued to push in and more fish were found now moved to 50-75 ftms
