  1. went down to the break wall today fished from about 3ish to 5ish landed 2 small salmon about 20-25cm so I chucked them back couple of other guys that were there caught a few to so yeah there round there at the momment I guess haha the water was pretty clear to which was suprising given the amount of rain which has been around

  2. oh ok kool thats pretty sick this one wasnt just hanging about but seemed to be on the hunt n there were a few fish jumping round where he was swiming guess you can only take it as a good sign really, if the water's good enough to sustain larger mamals like that then there should be plenty of fih about haha

  3. I caught a Tern on a whole ganged pillie off Palm Beach rocks years ago.

    Felt more like flying a kite than playing a fish haha

    yeah same happend to me yesterday at windang breakwall bugger of a tern took a ganged pillie n got a hook straight through the beak for his troubles, it was definately like flying a kite haha actually stood there for a couple of minutes looking at it flying round the top of my rod squaking thinking how the **** am I meant to get this thing off with out just letting it go with a mouth full of hooks, ended up pinning him down and just taking them out like you would a fish n chucked him back into the water he sat there for about 10mins then flew off think it might of had some shock plus my dog barking and trying to eat a wing didnt help haha

  4. weather turned a bit arsey so I didnt end up coming out, yeah davido you should head out the break wall even if its only for a change of scenery, last morning I was there I got to watch a dolphin cruise round the bay which was cool especially when about 10mins after the dolphin left and a seal came in and did the same sort of cruise was quite a cool experience as I didnt think there were any seal colonies in this area? which beaches are you talking about tunastrike Im new to the area so dont really have my bearings of north south east n west yet, never caught a jewfish before would be cool to do, and yeah tway those turns are a bugger I try to wait till there about to dive on it then give it a rip out of the way one way or another usually keeps it realitvely safe coz I think once there commited to there dive they have a bit of trouble turning and changing direction n that, I havent usd garfish down there but you tend to get constant nibbles of pillies I prefer the salted ones there a bit tougher n will hang on in the swell

    tight lines dudes

  5. G'day guy's

    Managed to get down to the break wall at windang this arvo for a few hours no fish landed but a few bite's and the people up the very end managed quite a good salmon and a few undersized bream from what I could see might give it another go 2morrow morning, managed to catch a bird who took a fancy to my half mangled pillie as I was reeling it back in got himself a mouth of ganghook right through the beak for his efforts.... that was definately the interesting experience of the arvo but the bird was realesed safely, didnt know leader was invisible to birds as well as fish ay!!

  6. hey guys I was fishing off the break wall at windang the other day and was wondering on what the best way to land a fish off the break wall would be(hooked up to a salmon but with my dilly dallying of not being sure how to land him lead to him getting off). Im not sure whether I should just try n pull them up over the rocks as best I can on a good wave n bringing them up that way or am I better off playing them down the wall and landing them on the beach, Its hard to get down to the water on the break wall as there arent many spots to get down to the water to and most of the lower parts are getting hit with waves fairly regularly, I was thinking maybe a net or gaff might help? Im mainly chasing salmon on 30lb mono with a 40lb leader off either my 10 or 12ft beach rod

  7. I did try the new leader, I put a post up about it in general fishing chat including the way I had it rigged up, I found it was get tangled round my main line fairly easily but that could of been due to the large swell and strong pull
