  2. Hi bloodknot I would be planning on mainly using bait like prawns and pilchard cubes. I was also looking at maybe getting a new rod with the reel. Any ideas? Thanks Flattiefisher27 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Just realised the price on the Daiwa TD Sol II!! Anything in the 100-300 dollar price range would be perfect. Just looked at the shimano elf spin reel?
  4. G'day Raiders I've saved up a bit of money and am planning on getting a new reel. The problem is i don't know which one to get!! I will be using the rod mainly for land-based fishing for bream, snapper, flathead etc (and hopefully the occasional king or jew). I have been looking at the Daiwa TD Sol II. I would prefer to use a spinning reel. If anyone has any recommendations they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance flattiefisher27
  5. we hired the boat from the balmoral boat shed which is on the right of the wharf. Also the fish was released to fight another day Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. G'day raiders Headed down to balmoral today and hired out a boat for a few hours. Drove the boat just out into the moored boats off Balmoral Beach. Cast out and out the rod in the rod holder baited with a cubed pillie. Started to rig up another rod and the other rod bends in half and i go to strike and the fish is gone. Bit annoyed after that and gave up on the other rod and decided to hold onto the baited rod just incase the fish came back again. A few minutes later I was on to a decent sized fish not sure if it was the one from before but it gave a great fight. Ended up being a nice 48cm Flattie a new PB for me so I was stoked!!! It just went quiet for the rest of the day and tried a few other spots and there was nothing much but a few little snapper. Not a bad way to start 2014!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  8. And all fish were released happily back into the big blue!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. G'day Raiders, Haven't really posted much recently as I haven't had the best of luck recently. Anyway me and my mate decided to head down to little manly on the rocks near the gasworks to go for a fish. Armed with servo prawns we weren't expecting to catch much and thought it would be a good chance to relax. The day started with a small bream a few cm's undersized and a small snapper. Things went a bit quiet after that and the fish seemed to have stopped biting. I then reeled in my rod to check it still had bait on the end and it felt like I had hooked onto a large bit of seaweed (we ended up having to stop fishing cause we lost all our sinkers as we only had 4 with us and their was a heap of oysters and seaweed which we got snagged on!!!) but this large bit of seaweed ended up to be a 30cm flounder a PB for me!! It was one of the strangest fights I have ever had in my 5 years of fishing!!! Everything went quiet after that and we only landed a small snapper. Thanks for reading Tight Lines Flattiefisher27 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  15. Thanks for your reply. Which set of rocks would you recommend fishing off? And what species have you produced from these rocks? Thanks
  16. Hey raiders, Im having a look at fishing cremorne point wharf tomorrow. Just wondering is the wharf right out on the point? or is it somewhere else? Do you think it would be worth a try? I was also looking at kurraba point. Is there quite a steep drop off there? Do you think the water is within netting distance? Thanks in advance Flattiefisher27
  17. I've seen a couple around the wharves pylons
  18. didnt end up going for a fish. I have been to salt pan quite a bit and it produces lots of good sized bream and flounder. Whole or half pilchards are best
  19. Hey raiders just wondering if anyone has had any success off any of the wharves around Pittwater? If so which wharves do you think would be worth a fish tomorrow? Thanks in advance
  20. Hi raiders Heading out for a fish on Tuesday or Thursday just wondering if anyone has any ideas of good land based spots around the harbour? Thanks in advance Flattiefisher

  22. hey raiders thinking of hiring a boat tomorrow out on pittwater and just wondering are there any places in paticular where the fish are biting. happy to target anything preferabley big kingies but all is good and what sort of bait thanks in advance flattiefisher27
  23. you can buy a special dive housing for the gopro hero 1 and 2 but the hero 3 black edition comes already has a sort of dive housing on its original housing but i would recommend the dive housing for the hero 2
