Hi Waza, yes I read your comprehensive submission at the time and was one of the first to give it a like. I have also just re-read it and couldn't agree more that there are many parts that could just be re-used in a submission regarding the PEP. Thanks Rebel. That's why when I contacted my MP's I asked them to declare their position. If enough folks do this we'd be able to form a clear picture of for and against. Cheers Zoran

I can't accept one failure as the reason to do nothing... if we do that we might as well scuttle our boats, slash our wrists and bring it all to an end. If you follow the stockmarket, the recent events around Gamestop show that the many... correctly united... can smash the $$$$$$$$ agenda. Governments are taking notice of this trust me. As an individual, you have to believe in the cause (the why) and actually get up and do something as an individual ... the sum of many individuals is unstoppable. There is a great movie - The Power of One. Change starts with each an every one of us. That's awesome Luke ... thanks so much taking action and for sharing. We now need every MP - state and federal - to get the message, that we actually give a F__k as to what happens in our back yard. Cheers Zoran

We can’t give up Rebel - imagine no more chasing the legendary whiskas with kids or mates. No more beach visits on weekends, no more whales on this stretch of coast ... what would Sydney be ... and for what? bloody crazy cheers Zoran

Thanks for taking action! We had a dinner yesterday with 4 couples that are also into boating. They were all unaware this was going on under our noses. The mainstream media has been noticeably absent so it’s come done to folks that care to spread the awareness. cheers Zoran

Well that would be crazy. But then again we are building an airport next to it so planes can fly directly over !

Thanks KC. Australia already has some of the richest gas deposits on the planet but it doesn’t seem to translate to lower gas prices for the population. I don’t see any upside to this PEP for the average bloke... just greed at the detriment of what we are so fortunate to have off this stretch of coastline. I’ve told my state and federal MPs that if I see their name on the list that supports this project they will lose my vote for good. cheers Zoran

Covered feet A+ Sneakers, boat shoes, crocks. Too many sharp, spikey, stingy things on boats. Cheers Zoran

Couldn’t agree more ! And an oil spill will bring down house prices all up and down the coast too .... but .....

G'day Raiders ... I hope you are all across what is happening in the background and expressing your views to the MPs ..... I'd surely hate to see oil rigs in some of the most pristine waters on the planet ... https://www.saveourcoast.org.au/stop-pep-11/ Cheers Zoran

Top shelf stuff Pickles ... I don't think I have ever been able to string 3 days in a row on the water .... something to strive for - just like your kingie adventures. Cheers Zoran

Absolutely cracker result Pickles and crew ! I was tossing up offshore Sydney or offshore Broken Bay yesterday. Looking at your smiling faces and the result I definitely made the wrong call to head offshore from Broken Bay ... for now Broken Bay offshore should be renamed to Blue Bottle offshore. Cheers Zoran (drooling)

👍 🤙 👍 ... guess the fruit didn't fall (sorry wasn't cast) far from the tree ! .... Looks like an awesome day out congrats. Can't beat being out with the family - fish or no fish. Cheers Zoran

Bahaha 🤣 that’s insane... “we included the most technically advanced technology and packaged it in the smallest space “ ... so you guys can go and dunk it in salt water ... yee ha Thanks for sharing Antony - there’s lots of innovation there and lots to go wrong - hopefully it will be a long time before barrycuda needs a new powerplant. Cheers Zoran

Thanks for heads up Pickles. Good sign for us. Just heading off Barrenjoey for hopefully some blue spot and then onto FADs. cheers Zoran

Good call. Don’t think this one is suitable to do the 1000 casts Scratchie talks about...but then again I’m not Scratchie. cheers Zoran

Thanks so much Donna- you are too kind considering to dedicate a whole sub forum (correction: Sub Project “SP”) to Yowie .... I’m just after registering this incredible SP catch. 🙄 cheers Zoran ps- sorry had to cut reply short as Maria, Wayno and I are rushing off to throw some SPs at flathead and other scaly things.

Well I reckon I have a legit claim for a Bait record - caught fair and square .... not sure Donna would want to go creating other suggested unnecessary awards, but then again I am so flattered you have nominated me 🤣 ... oh and Fab .. Cheers Zoran PS - hope the knee is better

....time well spent by the look of it ! Cheers Z

Excellent effort and catch. Cheers Zoran

Top job. Love the video and the catch. Thanks for sharing. cheers Zoran

Hey Donna, I'd like to submit the attached awesome catch in the Bait Fishing Record - SP category ... This one was caught in Sydney, at the popular 3 letter place, located mid chop, just around the bargain bin reef, on a plastic card shaped jig. It put up quite a fight but I got it to the register side for an accurate weigh in. Not sure if I will now use it whole or take fillets off each side for bait. Cant's share any more details about this record catch as I don't want @Yowie to beat me .... literally ! 🙄 Cheers Zoran PS - thought @Fab1 @GoingFishing and @Scratchie might be interested in this awesome SP catch ... whiskas watch out !

Well as I said I may have misread the report but it’s the one where 4 of them ended up in the water hanging on to eskies .... maybe they were too close to Scratchie’s whiskas drift 🤔 cheers Zoran

Bear in mind that you may need to have some way of allowing for air expansion as the trailer sits in the hot sun, the trapped air inside will expand - if its completely air tight it may well blow out the sikaflex/grommet seal. Cheers Zoran

Absolutely first class report and top fish Sam ... a worthy adversary to blood the reel. Congrats on your PB. BTW, how's your dad feel about trolling now ? Cheers Zoran PS - I read somewhere Scratchie knows what to do with spearos that get in the way? ... or did I misread that post...

As KC sad above there are systems that will do whatever you dream of. You are going to have to hardwire in a Bluetooth monitor system to each of your batteries . Then you better hardwire in something to keep your phone/tablet device charged to read the Bluetooth signal. Now that’s 3 devices that need to be hardwired. Or you can hardwire 1 or 2 volt meters that tells you the state of the battery ( or batteries) that are online. it comes down to what are you most concerned about?? Cheers Zoran ps - I have 1 volt meter on my dash that tells me the voltage state of the battery(ies) I have online. If the voltage drops below 11v When cranking the motor I know there is a battery problem. It also shows me the voltage when the motor is running - if that is >13.6V I know my batteries are being charged. When motor is off I should see my batteries at 12-13v if they are healthy.
