  1. Hi Ray, what size jighead do u use when spinng off avoca with the Z-Man 5"streakz.... also would you mind letting me know your set up? Have seen you there before but just was too shy to ask what gear you had
  2. Where do you guys fish from at windang? windang beach or under the big bridge?
  3. lol ok thanks. Do you have any recommendations for reels anyway?
  4. Hi, Can someone please recommend a reel to match a 7" Rod 10-24kg? I am after something as lite as possible but enough power to handle kingfish as this is what primarily i will be chasing. I have a 5500 size reel, but was hoping there would be something lighter as it gets heavy after a while of jigging? Its about 600g, is this normal for a jigging rod? I will be using braid budget up to $150 thanks
  5. Awesome. where abouts at windang did you catch these?
  6. I cant see that anywhere for that price.. they look to be 200+ nowadays
  7. Oh yeh good point regarding budget.. I will look into that. Is that heavy? because im planning on jigging, im looking for something as lite as possible,.
  8. Hi, I just bought a new 7" rod.. Its rated at 10-24kg. I wanted a reel to match.. and would be chasing the tougher fish like kingfish.. Mainly wanted to jig with it with soft plastics.. Can anyone recommend me what reel i should be using which would be lite... but strong enough to handle kingys? Budget would be about $150 max thanks
  9. Hi Guys, If you are jigging for Kings with a 5" gulk Jerk Shad.. what Jig size should i be using? The guy at the store sold me a 1/4 3oz jig .. is that too small?
  10. thanks for the picture. i think i know now
  11. Hi Mullowayman, how close to the rocks would you need to be in order to catch the squid and yakkas at west head? Also, to catch the decent sized fish, kingfish, flatheads, bream, etc.... would you need to be out past the heads to catch these? or within the heads? it seems like within is only about 10 meters deep water?
  12. Hi guys, where abouts in pittwater would i be lucky enough to find some yellow tail? and also squid?
  13. Hi Guys, I want to purchase a life jacket to be extra safe whilst fishing. I will be using it when rock fishing, and also when on the boat (Not open waters) I am assuming i need a type 2 jacket? Can anyone recommend me a jacket please?
  14. Where is the closest place to catch beach worms near Balmoral? can u catch them on that beach itself?
  15. Hi Ray, May i ask what type of Squid Jig that is? I want to purchase a jig and wouldn't mind a recommendation? Size, Brand, colour?
  16. Hi, My friend and I are planning a trip to the rocks somewhere to target Kingies. Can someone please recommend a location we will be able to catch yakkas from and throw them out to hopefully catch a kingfish? we understand that rock fishing is dangerous so we will be taking the appropriate precautions and wearing appropriate gear before trying. thanks
  17. Hi, I am planning on a trip to Pittwater on the boat. Can anyone please suggest me spots where i would be able to catch... Yakkas or squid to be used as live bait? And also, spots where i may be able to catch a king fish? thanks
  18. Hi Guys, im looking at a 6'6 Ugly Stick rated 8-15kg for fishing off a boat. Would i be able to match that with any reel? Do you think the above reel is too heavy for targeting Kings? More specifically, i have a Daiwa Windcast and a Pflueger contender... i was hoping to use these reels, rather than having to purchase another reel?
  19. Thanks for the advice. i will take that onboard.
  20. Hi, I am going to start boat fishing soon and want to buy new gear. Can anyone please give me an idea what i should purchase for ideal boat fishing? Rod Length, Rod Size, rod weight, reel size, line, etc I am planning on targetting just about everything, but want someone strong enough to target Kings and jew fish Thanks for your help
  21. Thanks all. And yes I have a Corolla and 4wd exactly lol
  22. Hi All, I am very close to booking in to go for my boat license with my father in law. I am really interested in joining someone if they have a spare seat or two on their boat? Basically, I have never owned or driven a boat, so i just want to learn a thing or two in preparation for when i get my license/boat. I will help out with launching and cleaning, and will do my best not to get in your way. I am usually a beach fisher so i do have my own gear. If you have a seat or two in the upcoming weekends, please let me know. Regards Francis
  23. Hi All, I am planning on getting my boat license soon. I was hoping you could suggest a few websites i can look at to get an idea on a type of boat to purchase and prices? Preferably brand new but i am up for looking at second hand too. i suppose i should start small for my first boat. It will be used predominately for fishing, but also just spending a day in the sun and jumping on and off
