  1. Small bucks! Glad you found your way here to the FR forums... great first post and catch in a new area!

    I better start charging people (you) for all the advice I hand out .. so that will be 5 bucks thanks!

    The 3in gulp shrimp you are currently using is the killer lure at the moment for the Botany flatties. If you are flicking plastic up against the mangroves get yourself some 60mm or 80mm Squidgy bloodworm Wrigglers with a good smear of sex-factor... the bream will be climbing all over them.

    I also have some marks I can share with you... but that will be another 5 bucks!

    Cheers

    Trung / DHYPE!

    LMAO.. Ive got my 5 bucks bro. Im happy to contribute towards the bigger boat, as long as Im allowed in it.

  2. I feel sorry for you, not your mate. Having to go home is not an option on my boat. Lives have to be in danger or its HTFU.free-mad-smileys-123.gif Here are some of the excuses for going home.

    Im sick = Lmao

    Im hungry = Wheres your lunch?

    Im bored = your not fishing hard enough

    Im sunburnt = wheres ur suntan lotion?

    Ive cut myself = Mmmm wheres the needle and thread?

    Hook in hand/leg = Pliers,cut and push, bandage and keep fishing

    Im cold = put a jacket on/ What? you didn't bring one...Lmao

    I have to be home at ? time = WHAT???...(hysterical laughter)

    I can go on but you get the picture. BUT if you free-sign-smileys-972.gif any or all of these things can be excused

  3. I beg to differ Lads, sambos' are yummmm. There are a few prerequisites for cooking of the much maligned sambo.

    Gutted and bled on the boat, dont forget to cut into the blood vessel on the backbone and clean.

    Store on ice.

    Fillet when you get home and cut ALL the red meat off.

    Next is a smoking hot pan with butter just starting to brown

    Cook your fish in to the pan making sure you dont overcook and its a fine line between cooked beautifully and dry as.

    Dont bother freezing them or even keeping them till the next day. Thats what flatties and kingies are for....

  4. I used to fish the salt pan wharf alot when i didnt have a boat and i have seen and caught SOME of these : kingies all sizes, bonnie schools, 4ft shark, flatties,bream, and squid. I used fluro's on the squid and sometimes when I was lazy (90%of the time)I would just leave it on and put a hook on. Didnt seem to change my success rate. My theory is any attention is good attention.

  5. Nice salmon ya got there. In regards to catching squids you can try around the last hour before sunset.

    And through the night, the lights attract them. I catch a fresh yakka and spike it under a float, then flick with a jig.

  6. Dont be too hard on yourself mate, all fishers are responsible for the gear they are using. Especially if its someone elses. I went out with a friend last week and he lost a biggie too. I laughed and told him it couldnt have happened to a nicer guy.. now I have a 2 trip ban...doh.(thinking-023.GIF note to self..keep big mouth shut and laugh on the inside)

  7. Good size mate! How did it taste?? Never had it before

    Strictly catch and release bro..I beer battered it and not alot of taste and :wacko: texture, but that is just my opinion. My mate liked it but he drinks VB too

  8. Odd capture for pittwater? Must be up the back end of town.. Great fish though :thumbup:

    Yeah, it was right next to the water police. There is a slipway on the southern side and in that small area just flick all around the pylons there. Just have your boat up to scratch as you could throw a squidgie into their office.And no wonder the fish get big there,who's gonna lurk around that area. I have seen BIG bream there, and that is my next target. Just hope the boys dont mind me cruisin' in and snatching a couple of their pets. :ph34r:
