HI RAIDERS, WENT OUT IN THE BAY LAST SATURDAY NIGHT AND FISHED IN A QUIET SPOT IN 7 METRES OF WATER NEAR THE 3RD RUNWAY. FISHED THE RUN UP AND RIGHT OUT TIDE, WAS HOPING FOR A JEWIE BUT DIDNT HAPPEN. HOWEVER I DID LAND 3 PORT JACKSONS AND 3 SHOVEL NOSE SHARKS AS WELL AS A COUPLE OF BUST OFFS. COULD ANY ONE OUT THERE IN RAIDER WORLD PLEASE TELL ME IS MY SPOT A DUD OR NOT ? IS IT WORTH FISHING AGAIN? AND DO YOU THINK THERE IS ANY CHANCE JEWIES WOULD COME THROUGH HERE , BEARING IN MIND THERE IS BAIT NEAR BY TO. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE MUCH APPRICIATED CHEERS GUYS

G'DAY RAIDERS, JUST INSTALLED A FURUNO FCV 585 SOUNDER ON MY VESSELL WITH A 1KW TRANNY, IF ANYONE OUT THERE READING THIS HAS USED ONE OR THE 620 I NEED A BIT OF HELP.

G'DAY RAIDERS, WENT TO VISIT THE NEW BOTANY BOAT RAMP ON SUNDAY NIGHT TO CHECK OUT THE FISHOS THAT HAD JUST COME BACK FROM FISHING, AS SOON AS I DROVE INTO THE CAR PARK I WAS SHOCKED AND DISSAPOINTED TO SEE ALL THESE YOUNG IDIOTS HANGING AROUND THE CAR PARK AND BOAT RAMP DOING WHAT MAY YOU ASK ? THATS EXCACTLY IT !! NOTHING ! LOSERS WITH NOTHING BETTER TO DO , JUST AGAIN OUT IN THERE CARS , SPEED AROUND THE CAR PARK THERE AND CAUSE TROUBLE. THERE WAS A INCIDENT THERE WHERE A BOATIE WAS REVERSING HIS TRAILER INTO THE WATER TO PICK HIS BOAT AND SOME MORON DECIDED THAT THE TRAILER AND CAR WASNT THERE AND WASNT GOING TO LET HIM REVERSE DOWN THE RAMP.. I WAS ONLY THERE FOR 10 MINUTES AND LEFT I COULDNT STAND BEING THERE I WAS DISGUSTED, WAT SHOULD BE DONE TO STOP THESE HOONS INVADING BOAT RAMPS KYEEMAGH BOAT RAMP INCLUDED !! NOT ONLY THAT IS YOUR CAR SAFE THERE AT NIGHT ??? MAYBE SECURITY PATROLS OR PERHAPS BOOM GATES WITH ACCESS ONLY WITH A FISHING LICENCE TO STOP THE IDIOTS IN THERE DONE UP CARS INVADING .... HAVE ANY OTHER RAIDERS EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM ????

HI RAIDERS OFF THE VANUATU IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, NEED SUM ON ADVICE ON WHICH ARE THE BEST FISHING CHARTERS TO GO ON WHILE OVER THERE, ANY INFO WOULD BE MUCH APPRIECIATED CHEERS !!!

THE RED ROCK COD IS A TASTY TREAT, I'VE COULD A FEW OF THEM AND I USUALLY BOIL THEM IN WATER WITH A LITTLE SALT AND SUGAR. ONCE COOKED LEAVE IT TO COOL AND THROW IT IN THE FRIDGE OVER NITE. EAT IT THE NEXT DAY AND I RECKON U THINK U WILL BE EATING LOBSTER

HI RAIDERS ! WENT DOWN TO KYEEMAGH BOAT RAMP THIS ARVO TO GREET A MATE OF MINE THEY JUST CAME IN FROM A DATS FISHING. WHAT I SAW WAS TOTAL CHAOS AND ABSOLUTE BULL***T AT THAT PLACE. THE AREA IS SUPPOSED TO BE A 4 KNOT AND NO WASH ZONE AND I SEEN HEAPS OF YOUNG AND STUPID BOATIES SPEEDING AND CARRYING ON LIKE IDIOTS THINKING THEY OWN THE JOINT, WHEN THEY SHOULD THINK ABOUT THE SERIOUS AND SENSIBLE BOATIES THAT ARE THERE TO USE THE FACILITIES IN A ORDERLY MANNER. TO TOP IT OFF I WAS YARNING TO A BOATIE THERE WHO HAD JUST CAME BACK , AND I ASKED HIM WHAT HE CAUGHT AND HE SAID A 50KG GUMMY SHARK , I SAID WHAT YOUR KIDDING SO HE TOLD ME TO HAVE A LONG IN HIS BOAT ( I KNEW HE WAS FULL OF S**T) , ANYWAY GLANCED IN HIS BOAT TO SEE 2 DEAD FISH, 1 SHOVLE NOSE SHARK AND A POOR PORT JACKSON IN ACCESS OF 15KG. I COULD HAVE KILLED THIS BLOKE BUT I DID GIVE HIM A MOUTH FULL AND ABUSED HIM, HIS ONLY DEFENCE WAS HE WAS ONLY GOING TO TAKE PHOTOS AND NOT EAT THEM........ LOSER JUST WANT TO KNOW WHERE THE HELL IS THE NSW MARITIME AND WATER POLICE ??????? THIS AREA IS A REAL BUSY ZONE ESPECIALLY SUNDAYS AND SHOULD BE VISITED BY INSPECTORS EVERY WEEK TO TAKE ACTION OTHERWISE ALL HELL WILL BRAKE LOSE REAL SOON..... ALL NSW FISHERMAN PAY TO FISH, I AND IM SURE MOST OF THE OTHER HONEST BOATIES AND FISHERMAN WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE INSPECTORS OUT THERE DOING THERE JOB AND ISSUE PEOPLE LIKE I WITNISSED TODAY A FINE.................................
