Well done Iain and crew... I'm sure the rigs you made up last night will get a workout of the comeing weeks... great feed and good company thats what fishing is about.

I have to agree, braid has gone a bit down hill of late. just recently I purchased a new reel and they gave me a spool of 65lb Spiderwire Stealth, never used the stuff before always used Tuff Line without a problem.. After spooling up the sustain I run a few tests and found the breaking strain around the 12 - 14 kg right at the knot, nowhere near the 29kg you should expect.. I did however get a bit better BS when I platted and catpaws or improve albright knot it to heavier mono, started to get around the 20 - 22kg alot better but still nowhere near the 29kg it's rated at. At the end of the day yes it isn't preforming to it stated strength but then again I don't really think I can achieve the 20kg drag on a sustain 8000 so on it stays for a bit.

Can't wait to bring my son along for a fish turning 3 in nine days, the first thing he does when we go under the house is open the capboard with my gear and have a look, the next thing is check on the mower..... Just loves the mover can sit there for a hour watching me cut the grass... I'm sure he will have the same patients with fishing....

Put me down for 1.

i've got a guy here at work who always smokes mine.. they taste great not as good as the normal smoked sambo....

Sorry to here about your trouble but at least it wasn't all for nothing.... Like fishy fingers, I keep a jumper pack in the boat at all time even with my duel battery setup... you can never have too much power or fuel.... They keep therre charge for a long time , I think I jumped my wifes cars about fifteen times before it needed another charge..... well worth the $80 from supercheap...

Great Thread,, Good to see the right way to fillet a YF...

Nice... You sure can't complain about that for your first.... Top Effort

I big thank you to all involved... A great night.... Nice to catch up with a few blokes I haven't seen to a bit. Will keep an eye out for the next one...

Well Done Gents, to tell you the truth... the picture just doesn't do it justice... It looked absolutely massive sitting in your boat at the ramp that night....... great effort and a top result for all involved.... So what was it full of.... when you cleaned it...
