Just loved the way your report is written, i have mates that can't write that well. Congrat's to all the raiders that contributed to their trip. That was generous to say the least. now I know why i like this site the best!!

Just found a 2 piece 6' 5" berkley buccaneer glass spin rod at vinnies ($5). It has 5 stainless guides.I want to try plastics and lures for flatties and bream. I am an absolute novice at this game and was wondering as to what reel I would match to it and line . It has a very soft action. Any advice would be appreciated.

Wow, what a great day to start the hol's. it only can get better mate

Nice idea Kit, unfortunately we live the real world here and there are some people that think they can do what they like. You know the ones I mean. They run straight through the schools on the surface, they sit in your burly trail, they cut off your $25 popper etc etc. I for one am going down to this ramp with a cut lunch and watch the fun

Nice one Basil, it was a beaut day to be out there. The fish were a bonus.

Where??? who??? Me first!!!!

Thats my boat down to a T.

Thats one cheesy grin you got there mate, and so you should. Awesome

That is one good fish, I hope to emulate you soon

Yeah.... You'll be seeing stars alright if you dont keep trying to ring me. Its as if you dont love me anymore PM sent

Wish they would go mad on the northern beaches.... Please please give us a ramp at palm beach

I like knigies too, but what about the kingies ......

Nice one mate.... I wanted to go out but I had outlaw trouble. Aww well tomorrow is another day

You are one lucky guy. Get yourself a lotto ticket mate, your luck is IN

Someone is eating humble pie this morning I love you Dan

Just ask Ray R. He can tell you anything you need to know

Went out yesterday with my oldest boy for a quick session. Launched from bayview at around 11. Pittwater was really nice so decided to head around to flint and steel for a flattie. Bad idea, as soon as I turned the west head corner the wind and swell were up, and I mean UP. I needed shelter so I thought I would go into patonga creek. After stopping for a feed of fish and chips at patonga (best in town) went into the creek. Rerigged my abu workhorse, I had been using it for the tailor a few days ago, and dropped a chunk of pillie on. The tide had just turned and was running out, perfect. Put my rod into a holder and started to eat. What a mistake!!, I didnt even get 2 chips into my mouth before the rod just buckled over and the reel was screaming. I managed to get the rod out of the holder just feel a couple of head shakes and gone. Rerigged and sent it out again, chips now forgotten. Did 2 drifts for 2 nice flatties, 1 each, both caught on pillies. Well, that was dinner so decided to pull the pin knowing it was gonna be a long rough haul home. Got back to pittwater much later and what do I see ......Tailor boiling everywhere. Ahhhh, a chance to teach my son how to use lures and slices. Rerigged the abu again with a small slice ( see the trend here)(note to self, need more fishing gear). Then I let him loose You just had to be there. He nearly threw himself off the boat in his eagerness to cast into them. A quick lesson and he was away. he smashed 14 before I dragged him away. You couldnt get the smile off his face and he wouldnt shutup. So being the great dad I am, I made him buy the beer on the way home. What a day, 1 to remember. Heres a photo of the flatties and 1 of the tailor. The tailor were all about the same size

This is the only one I know of http://www.barrenjoeyboathire.com/

Too easy, just unscrew them, if screwed in or just pull them out and silicone new ones in. Use plenty of silicone on the inside. I did this job in about 15 minites

Psssst... Dont tell anyone I said this, but darling point wharf is a start. And its easy to access. light gear and little or no weight. Evening,night or early morning. Think about the tides too. half tide rising is my bet. Good luck. I hope your untangeling skills are up to scratch

What a great day on the sambos'. Wish I was there!!!!!!.

The old adage...... You cant scare me, I have children Something to aspire to??........ I dont think so.

This one is a no brainer..............On the water, any water. Sun shining or not. Wind blowin' or not... FISHIN'. PS I would fish in a puddle

A picture tells a thousand words I bet thats not the last trip up north either.... AWESOME....

Spoken like a true fisherman Honest it was thissss big
