  1. Haha love it Teflon I've also been to highbury but only on a stadium tour as they were away that week so had to go watch them at villa park was worth it though they won 3-1 that's 3 things we have in common mate BEER,FISHING and ARSENAL go the GUNNERS!!!

  2. I had my first drink at 12 years old, Barbie Girl just got to number 1 in the UK charts and I was in Highbury Stadium just about to watch my first Arsenal Soccer game. My brother (the responsible adult he is) bought me a pint of Carling. I sang Barbie girl all the way home on the minibus and My dad asked him what he'd done to me... Best day of my childhood!!!

    I've never looked back in the way of larger... Carling is by far the best soccer beer you could ever drink, after a match my team would always head to the bar after to celebrate or commiserate our win/loss, Carling was the one and only beer I had. Many went for Stella or Kronenberg but they were just a bit too bitter for me.

    Now I find this interesting that FOSTERS in the UK is marketed as Australias number one beer, the only thing Aussies drink, the biggest export out of Australia... yet since I've been here (2 years) I've never seen it once! But it is a beautiful larger. I drank fosters during the early 20's as it was cheap but also a beer where you could have 10 pints and still manage to crawl home and still be able to taste the kebab you had the night before in the morning!

    Out here I have a tap king, and the Mrs works as a producer for TV advertisements which mainly include XXXX and Tooheys so I'm lucky enough to get plenty of samples from time to time. Tap kings are amazing and cheap too! Put one up during a BBQ and you get draught beer that's too easy to drink!

    Finally depending on the day... Can't beat a Corona on a warm day!

  3. Definitely great fun on light gear even better I reckon when standing on a jetty with shallow water and seeing the schools of the little green bullets come flying in and flicking plastics and slugs in front of them and watching them smash your lure and take off and listening to your real scream and your line cut through the water very addictive well done anyway mate

  4. You should be able to get livies inside the northern break wall then head out to pig island(furtherst island strait east from mouth of harbour) and your in with a good chance of kingies down rigger or sinker to get past the rats there's also normally plenty of bonito around there

  5. No worries for the info,yeah Steve is a top bloke he will help you out any way he can, make sure when you are back on the house boat have a line or two out at all times because you will catch some good fish off houseboat as well and I took a mattress from downstairs and put it upstairs to sleep caus it's too hot. And if you want crab traps and a cast net double check with Steve before you get there caus you might have to pay extra. Have a great trip and good luck I'm jealous. Cheers marcel

  6. As for places to fish your best bet is to ask the owner when boarding the boat.he would have heard what's biting and where in the week or weeks before you arrive and is more than happy to pass info on. As for lures we mainly used soft plastics around the shipping channel markers with the squidgee in the drop bear colour the most popular. For any surface action chrome slugs of course but my favourite slug was the gillies whitebait. For around the rivers and river mouths live poddy mullet was the best provided someone can cast the cast net(it took us a while to get it right) but if you get them you're on every cast. Hope this helps good luck and enjoy your holiday
