Thats the best thing about fishing,even if you dont catch'em. You have a story for around the camp fire about the 1 that got away. By the way thanks for the tips, I will be making up some leaders AND changing to 50lb braid for my next trip.

I would like to know why they cant go back?. Is it because of the bladder?. We just use a bait needle and pierce the bladder and they go back no trouble.Or am I not understanding something

Nanook has it right, Its a 30 careful minutes walk. You can catch anything from salmon, kingi's, bonito, tailor, bream out there. Just be careful it can be dangerous if the swell is up. And it is only for the experienced at night.

Try and trap some poddy mullet and use them as livies.
Mr Flattie's favourite tucker.
Use a rig of, mainline to a small swivel, then your leader with the smallest ball sinker
you have in your tackle bag, running to a #5 wide gap hook.
Pin the livie carefully thru the back just behind the dorsal fin, making sure
you don't go too far near the spine or it'll kill 'em.
Toss him out whereever you see weedbeds with sandy patches nearby, or dropoffs and cast into where
the meet. Keep in contact with your bait and you'll notice him getting real agitated on your line..
that's usually a predator (Mr Flatty) about to snaffle him.
Wait for the "thump" on the line as they usually just inhale it whole without
swimming away. Gently lift your rod and feel if there is any weight on the line..if so..strike
to ensure the hook is embedded well..usually in the corner of the mouth with wide gaps.
And hopefully you're on!!
You'll also find the bigger bream will attack live mullet as well and not so many small stuff.
One thing to beware of though is Long Toms are about atm and they also love poddies.
Just take care when unhooking them as they will have a go at you if they get a chance.
One earlier this week latched onto my nether regions as I was bringing him in to release.
Luckily I was wearing waders so the wedding tackle is still in one piece.
Nasty bastards..seriously! and big suckers, some over a metre. with teeth like crocodiles.
Try the above and I'll just about guarantee you'll score a flatty.
(sorry..no refunds)
Cheers,
Pete.
Just listen to this advice and perhaps PM the master for a little more precise location details. and you will be home and hosed.

Butter and salt, don't forget quality bread. You can't go wrong.

And dont forget to buy a pair of thongs too, the best rubber for a yabbie pump. the leather just doesn't cut the mustard.

Thanx for the heads up guys, I will be investing in a jar of juicy plastics as soon as possible.... And John, you're right I will try anything, and that is just to get out fishing.

As Bangus junior said............. you rock Ray. But Im not sure if his future wife will see it that way, when he has 300 lures, 27 rods and 40 reels and 2 boats.
