  1. We picked up a couple of Legal kings and a couple of undersized ones today all on live squid. Strips and heads were no good. I think you need to get em and keep them live when the going is tough as it has been the last couple of weeks. Regards Hawkeye
  2. Hey guys i always leave a small box of gear in the car sps will be alright if in their packets or containers and sealed well i also keep a box of hardbodies and the jackels were the only ones to pop like dan said sx 40 smiths attacks all fine Hawkeye
  3. Thanks guys we guessed around 3 kgs compared to bream/ size weight so thanks for the confirmation the bait was a hawksbury river prawn we made so much noise during the 15 minute fight people came out of their units to see what was going on and gave a round of applause as it was landed Hawkeye
  4. Hey Guys and girls my mate and i were fishing our regular spot near Blues Point with 6 lb bream gear when my mate hooked and landed this nice little King went 67 cm to the fork of the tail and put up a great fight on lite gear. Hawkeye Ps any rough indication how much it might weigh as we had no scales and released it unharmed
  5. A lot has changed guys before they used to play soldiers in QLD or the territory now if you joined up you end up in Iraq playing for real youd have to be crazy Hawkeye
  6. Guys if the strength of the double knot is any sort of issue a spider hitch is the worst knot in the world reduces the breaking strain of the main like to below 50% theres a reason game fishing guys tie bimini and 30 wrap plaits Hawkeye
  7. Hey guys i can remember the glo bait frenzy when we used to LBG around Jervis bay must be 15-20 years ago now was the "amazing new innovation" Hawkeye
  8. Hey guys I worked in casinos for 10 years we always had a saying " there 2 types of gamblers Liars and Losers if they re tell you theyre not losing they are lying" Have fun with it guys but dont expect to win Saw a guy lose $4 Million in 2 hours once Hawkeye
  9. As Slim says you can put on a lighter leader for bream or other timid fish although you might gain some extra casting distance with light lures if you got the lighter braid Hawkeye
  10. I usually use either a 1 or 1/0 with a 3 ' bass minnow 1/16 head or lighter if i can and find the most important thing to remember is SLOW When i first started sp ing i found the slower i went the more bream i caught and less bycatch even now i have to remind myself to slow it down Hawkeye
  11. I think a lot of people just always use a double i always use one when fishing where your going to be tracing the fish as it means extra strength between the reel and the fish if something goes wrong. but as the guys have said not nessecary for light bream style and if your tying a spider hitch not a bimini or plat your acually weakening your line a lot Hawkeye
  12. the old weber makes an awesome smoker you can pick the copy ones in all sizes really cheap Hawkeye
  13. A flick of sps in iron cove or hen and chicken off the shore for me sat arvo an maybe sunday Hawkeye
  14. The harbour has heaps of wildlife saw a couple of penguins the western side of Blues point last week Hawkeye
