Well done on your first marlin

Not a bad fish on 6kg the australian record on 6kg is 20kg so its pretty close well done..

where and how do you get the tusks out?

The river is a bit murky lots of rubbish and weed today.

Had the same on one of my bonito on tuesday.

There is no camping allowed down at burning palms

Took my eldest son out on the bay yesterday for a quick fish.We headed over to the breakwall to get some livies and had 5 little yakka's swimming around in the live bait tank.We then anchored at the end of the breakwall,sent down the first yakka and started rigging some light gear the rod buckles over he's all over it telling me get out of the way after a short fight i look down in the water thinking it's a rat king but no its a jewie once in the boat he's jumping up and down screaming it's a jewie a quick measure and it's 56cm after a couple of phone calls to pa & mum we put out another yakka this one lasts about the same time before the rod buckles over again with a little help to get the rod out of the rod holder he was fighting again this one gave him a bit of curry another jewie was in the net a bit bigger 62cm more phone calls another yakka went out but anchor had pulled off goes the rod again this ones mine with the line sceaming off a nice king at 68cm was in the net moved back to where we first anchored and sent down the baits again for no luck,headed back after an hour,got home and ran to all the neighbours showing his catch very happy boy..

Thanks for all the reply's guys The boys are off to nelson bay for 4 days with their grandfather. Hope they get some.

The next generation of raiders are coming through Well done on your first fish mate with more to come.

Thanks byron. He caught the whiting off the beach this morning. marlon was pretty happy he ran and showed all the neighbours when he got home

I went fishing with my daddy this morning and caught my first whiting i caught it on my favorite rod with some nippers we pumped yesterday. It was 43 cm long.

In the shallows.The darker it gets the closer to the beach they come. The squid are in the freezer ready to go for a walk!!

I will be heading up to lizard island for 12 days from the 23rd of october will be in cooktown for a day on the 4th of november will let you know whats been happening out on the reef.

I allways take a jig with me. Caught them at kurnell.

Got the plastics out this afternoon for some flatties and ended up with these squid Check the bite mark.

Nice mako. Very good eating and no bones.

Heading down this weekend and again for farthers day weekend. My brothers have been down there and only managed bream and a heap of small flatties.

These pictures where taken in the morning and afternoon. Love the sand bar!

Thanks jewgaffer didn't fish to much up there just relaxed.

Got 1 more day of fishing in before heading back to work after 3 weeks off. got some squid in the morning for bait and headed off for my favorite bit of reef near the light at solander. Set the burley trail and for the next 3 hours got nothing but sweep hooked up on something big and after 15 minutes decided to head for the anchor. Sick of sweep so switched to a soft plastic first throw a small king 3rd cast after that a nice red a couple more cast for a baker and called it quits.

Just got home from 16 days of living aboard a new assegai.

He wont even tell his best mate

Well done With that many around do you think they are spawning?

Kurnell groynes. I personally don't think it matters what type of jig you use sometimes the cheapest and oldest ones work!

Just got back from a quick fish down the local groynes took two packets of plastics in my pocket.Walked half way down the groyne and spotted a few nice size squid. Bugger no jigs so turned back around ran home grabed 2 jigs and ran back. Still there rigged up the jig and dropped in front of the first one hook up then the next straight on the third didn't like what i was doing and made a b line for the nearest weed bed.
