  1. Kayakers are so pesky and frustrating ! I've had a number hook my jigs while paddling across my line and not even stop when I'm yelling at them to stop paddling
  2. The south size of nuggan head is great to fish. Sand bottom and has always produced fish when ever I've fished it over the years, pillies and prawns worked best, I've fished the north side and always got snagged and didn't catch a thing. Be mindful if there are guys out surfing the wedge reef in regards to burley as its a pretty sharky spot and not fun when your out in the water and you see someone pumping burley into the water 50m away from you...
  3. Hey mate I went down there a few years ago, there's a lake at the southern end of the main beach which produces heaps of fish. Last time there I fished the river mouth on the run out of the tide as the sun was going down, only spent 30 mins flicking an 80mm bloodworm wriggler and landed a nice Flatty about 50cms. There's always heaps of whiting on the flats as well and tried plenty of times with poppers to catch em but had no luck
  4. It seems like a good option as built in brush etc and relatively cheap, has anyone tried it? I've got an old hard body that is a great lure but after a few years of use its looking a bit worse for wear and wanted to give the old girl a touch up!
  5. Solid mate are you catching these land based or on a boat/kayak?
  6. For the large glow stick I drop down under the boat I usually go for blue or white if I can get them at the shops by yellow will do the job as well. White will be the best as its the brightest of them all
  7. Buy a blow torch and get the kepi mayo an teriyaki sauce from sushi train tastes freaking amazing !!!!
  8. I use kwells and caffeine tablets combined together, works perfectly. Avoid dairy products as makes it worse
  9. The kings in Aus aren't known as much for taking a salmon live bait like they do in NZ for some reason. Plenty of guys have hooked big kings on a fat bonnie as well, they punch well above their weight that's for sure
  10. The mustard hooks are still good quality but I don't think they sell em in Kmart anymore only big w. stay nice and sharp. I find the Kmart stuff doesn't hook up as cleanly
  11. 2 different spots but very close to each other, probably your best first option, in a strong wind you'll have trouble getting out there in you boat though so always proceed with caution and turn around if it doesn't feel safe
  12. Mate has a 540 freedom sport and never has to use it to empty. Sometimes we come back with 1/4 of a tank left when we refil but the gauge isn't too flash. What engine have you got ? And where abouts are you planning on fishing. We comfortably get to 12 mile and back via long reef in a bit of wind and have 1/4 left most trips if we leave from Davidson park out through the heads, engine is a 100HP Yamaha 4 stroke. That's with 2 people on board. Add more petrol for extra wind, travel time, engine differences and people on board
  13. Sometimes after bad weather there is leaves built up around the tyres and all over the covers, other times its spotless, parking inspectors are exactly known for using their brains and common sense either !
  14. I used to have a pretty long leader and saw on al mcg's videos he uses a really short leader (approx 30-40cm only) and changed to that, far less tangles under water and impoved catch rate. Might depend how your fishing though. I run a large round sinker to big barrel swivel off the braid then leader when I am live baiting a yakka as its easier to set tue depth for it, if I'm using stripped squid ill usually run a lighter bean sinker but everything else the same, again with a shorter leader has worked a lot better.
  15. So we fish every second weekend and park the boat in the only parking space on the street outside the house in manly, as this is the best spot for washing and cleaning the boat. How do they determine the boat has been continually parked for 3 months if we actually use it every 2 weeks ?
