  1. Thanks for that guys when I go on Saturday I'lll buy the 2500. Thanks for the help I couldn't decide which one Cheers Ethan
  2. Hey guys I'm looking at getting a new reel, I am going to buy the shimano aernos but I don't know what size reel. They come in to spool sizes aswell. I will be targeting Aussie salmon, tailor, bonito, (surface fish in bait schools), trevally, bream, flatties and other fish similar to that. Any help would be great Cheers Ethan
  3. Yeah I was disappointed that we didnt catch it but it was awesome that we even saw it
  4. Haha thanks scratchie we could have kept my trevally and mum dad sons but decided to let them live
  5. Yeah wish I had live bait to hook up to it but it was exciting to see it following the trevally. And yeah he takes me there and back and he haven't caught anything yet and I caught quite a few fish already so yeah haha decided he could have a bit of fun on the light gear
  6. Thanks mate and it was a great day great to be out there and there was only one other boat at the ramp when we put it in
  7. Went to middle harbour this morning for some kingfish. Well that sort of worked. . Didnt get one yakka or squid so our hopes went that high. Was driving around the spit and saw some salmon jumping out. Hooked up to a fish but it spat the hooks at the boat when it jumped it the air. A few more casts later i hook up to another fish, it was taking line and jumping in the air, took a while to land but was worth it and then my brother nets the fish (biggest fluke) and a 46cm salmon is on board. After the surface action we anchored off and i sent out a burly trail with bread. I casted out a little bit of bread on a size 8 hook without a sinker. within a min or two my 1000 sedona started screaming off the fish took alot of line and i new this was a big one. Got it to the boat and my younger brother netted it first go beginners luck, a nice 32cm trevally came on board. Kept the burly trail going then my brother hooks up to another trevally this one wasnt as big but still an okay fish, a 26cm trevally was on the deck. i hooked up onto another fish and gave it to my dad as he hadnt caught a fish yet. IT put up a great fight then when he saw the fish there was a bigger fish following it. when it got closer it was a big kingfish. The trevally was 36cm and i don't see how it was going to eat it but it just followed it. Casted out a xrap near the fish but wasnt interested then changed to a chrome lure that didnt work either. The one time i wish we had live bait. The kingfish then swam off. Then it came back and started eating the bread in the burly trail. After the kingfish came we didnt get anymore fish. Decided to call it a day after that. Here are some pics of the fish (all the fish are bigger in real life) The 46cm salmon The 32cm trevally My little brothers trevally Very nice day little winds no swell, but picked up at around 10:30

  10. Hey everyone, im heading out on monday in middle harbour for some kingfish but i am having trouble getting squid and yakkas. the last few trips i have had i havent got one yakka or squid either. im getting in to squidding i have a few yamashita squid jigs in the tackle box and i have tried balmoral for an hour and the spit for an hour and had no luck and the same with yakkas.

  21. Hey guys just a report on when I went to Lake Macquarie. Went up to Dora creek on Friday arvo and came back on Sunday arvo. Was staying at a relatives house for a holiday. Soon as I got there rods out of the ute first and out the back to fish off of the wharf. First cast a little 8cm bream was happy but determined to get a bigger one. Fished from 3:30 till 11 that night hahaha. That evening I caught about 20 bream biggest going 26cm, three tailor around 30cm, and a little flathead. Next morning got up at 7 and straight to the wharf fishing. Fished for about one hour caught 6 fish few bream few tailor. Then I decided to go on the kayak so see what's out there. Bait fished for Bit caught 3 bream around the 20cm mark then decided to have a troll. Caught 4 tailor trolling and lost one big fish :'( because I was fluffing around haha. Got back at about 12ish then decided to have lunch. Went out on the kayak again later one that day caught one bream on the troll then decided to bait fish. Right outside the house where I was staying caught 1 28cm whiting, some more tailor and some more bream. Did pretty well for a day and halfs worth of fishing and had a great time.
  22. Hey everyone, I am going up to lake mac on the following Friday. I was just wandering how is it going up there?? What fish r on the bite?? And also I need lures for bream and flathead. What are the best lures for them?? Cheers Ethan
  23. Hey guys, I just got a kayak a few weeks back and I want to get into bream and flathead fishing with blades. Just one question I know a website which I can get them for a $1 each, what colours are the best there are so many colours and I don't know what colours to get. So if u don't mind can u tell me a few colours. Cheers Ethan
