Hi Raiders, Had a pretty productive day on the hacking around Lilli Pilli...most notably one of the biggest Trevally i've seen around measured 61cm. For most of the fight I thought I was onto a decent Kingy...didn't stop taking drag. On the first run it had my Thunnus 4000 onto the backing although i must confess there wasn't much braid on it in the first place maybe 80-100m. My mate Adrian aided the capture of this beast courtesy of some impressive boat work. Action didn't stop from the moment we got there, mostly Watson's leaping bonitos and good sized bream. The bonnies were taking anything you threw at them, it was one of those days. A spoon with a hook on the end of it would have worked I reckon. Took a few home for a feed of sashimi rest were caught and released didn't bother with photos. Gear: Lox snapper rod Thunnus 4000 8lb varivas squid leader

Daiwa Seajigger 305's Shimano Stradic Fi (find a good 2nd hand one) comes with two spools

Good feed!!

Rats on baby stella's are the best! =D

That's freaking massive!

Have they flooded the harbour yet?

Fair effort! and great price!

Holy jesus!

Awesome report buddy!

Clifton buddy

Congrats! those are candy size!

Damn that's a nice sea food platter =p sashimi, tempura, batter, grill ...

G'day Raiders, Just a quick report nothing special. There are some serious Trevally in the harbour at the moment. There's 5 in the picture but me and my mate dropped at least 6 between the both of us. When they get their head down it's just crazy town. Got pinged! by a few...I'd say they were pushing the 45-47 mark. Rig: Korean float Rod: Seajigger 305 Reel: Stradic ci4 with 12lb varivas Bait: Peeled prawns combo with fresh squid. Once these boys got burleyed up you could probably fish at them for the whole day. unfortunately I had to call it a day early to go home and finish reading biz law stuff.....so I can go again tomorrow morning. Will report back again Cheers Dwan8337

Time to update your Kingfish PB

Yer i'll need to add stainless washers behind the buttons. The L-bracket.....i was like to my good mate that you clearly mounted it direct screw on the interior side of the pod. He was like narh narh trust me i got this...lol

Cheers Geoff! definitely do the drain plug after exams. Meanwhile i'll just need to plug the inlet with some cork or something..

I think so too read it somewhere with the U.S. Forums. Maybe they have some inbuilt mechanism to stop the water flowing outwards. These DIY ones should have it at the top. Oh wells note to myself for the next live well.

46 hours already?! You got a pic of your baby?

They not bad eating once made into fish cakes. Food is food haha

Good size mate! How did it taste?? Never had it before

Narh I didn't. Saw you too then! Only saw the bait fish get smashed right up against the rocks gets the heart pumping every time.

To be honest i'm not so sure i think around 7am. I launched at 5am tried squid grounds for a good hour drove out to south head, was berleying up some trev when the school just came through. Pulled anchor and just followed it till the wind picked up. Did you see a yellow poly around? there was a half cabin following it around as well further out.

I had no idea but your right...its not very accurate on the move now unless at about 2-3 knots
