  1. Does anyone know if there are sharks in St Georges Basin? We are going down there for a couple of weeks after Christmas and the kids want to get a doughnut.

    Sp Reel

    I reckon if you wait a week for the post Christmas sales you will be able to pick up a Symetre for that price.
  3. Bull sharks are the old Bronze Whalers aren't they? They also get to the upper reaches of the Georges River.
  4. I have a 40hp Johnson on a Stacer 4.5m runabout and get cavitation when I cross a wake or when I turn when the sea gets up a bit. I have lowered the motor to the last hole which made a difference but I still get some cavitation. I am wondering whether a Permatrim or other hydrofoil (I have seen the SE 200/300 Sport) help?
  5. You can also put the boat in at Sussex Inlet and then drift from where the river enters the basin. That's where we will be for 2 weeks in January!
  6. I just run the sinker down to a swivel, have about a 1 m 12lb mono leader with a 2/0 baitholder/longshank/circle hook.
  7. Would it be cheaper to buy a new Sienna, as how much does a service cost?
  8. We went there a couple of years ago and found it very hard to get a feed. So did everyone else in the caravan park, even the people with permanent vans there. If fishing is your main priority, you might be better going to a place like Sussex Inlet or Narooma.
  9. You'd get a Shimano Symetry for $150 wouldn't you?
  10. It's a big ask for a 4 year old to use a gaff. The fish sounds like it would have been bigger than him!
  11. On the beach at Brighton/Ramsgate.
  12. Hi Ross Is there anything needed for Sunday that has not been 'baggsed'?
  13. How come no one ever puts the humble flathead on a sticker?
  14. I am thinking of upgrading some of my cheaper rods and was looking at the Ugly Stik Gold, but yesterday I saw some Shimano Beastmasters which seemed to be around the same price. Has anyone got any thoughts on these rods or something similar.
  15. The steering is fixed so we are in. We were out in the Bay today and while the fishing was slow, the weather and conditions were absolutely magnificent. The water was a little cold thought between 12.6 and 14.2 degrees.
  16. So what are the better brands of mono?
  17. Anybody hitting Botany Bay on Friday?
  18. If I can get my steering sorted Ste (14 year old son) and I will be there.

    Frozen Steering

    After not having used my boat for some months, mainly due to weather and broken hand issues, my steering seems to have frozen. How can I fix this, should I just use brute force to get it moving or do I risk breaking something by doing this?
  20. Hey GT This boat is currently in the swap and sell section. Lasty http://fishraider.com.au/Invision/index.php?showtopic=32882
  21. What sort/class of rod do you have that on?
  22. So it seems that the flatties have left the bay and moved up into the river.
  23. Nursing my wounded pride. I broke my hand wrestling with my 14 year old son yesterday and am now in plaster and out of action for 4 weeks!
