Catching fish on the playstation doesn't count as a fishing report! Top effort though!

finding where to fish is a matter of exploring. start with google maps and then look closely at all the possible ledges. look for both shallow and deep. once you find a fishy ledge, go for an arvo stroll. i always go when the sun is high and take your polaroids with you. this way you can see whats on the bottom and determine whether if its too snaggy. you can even find drop offs where fish like to hang which will never show on google maps. look for washy areas as well. if you see a shallow area, do not dismiss it straight away. i fished in places with less than 1m water but very foamy and caught 2-3kg drummer. OR another approach is just go in the morning or late afternoon and your fishing gear to try your luck.

On my catalina rod, one of the silver rings that butt up against the EVA handles have fallen off. What would be the best adhesive to use? I thought about any old superglue but then remembered from my scale model hobby that using the wrong glue can cause some damage.

they're both the same chemist. theyre just up the road from caringbah station. no need to cross the road as you'll find nothing

probably transition period from female to male. the eyes are blue. females are brown. males are blue.

ripple fisher are excellent. also try the latest saltiga rods they quite nice too. fisherman rods are excellent but if you don't want to spend almost double, mc works or zenaq are just as good for half the price

I think you should contact customs to get a straight answer in writing before you do anything.

They're great for making fish based soup

Very nice! I always buy my reels from Japan regardless of the price. Even if they are same brand, model and size. They are just better made in Japan

yes they are. part of the lutjanidae family

spot on...rock cale it is. annoying little buggers. they love anything that is edible

Find their company link on the video page. It'll show you how.

I'm not sure if we will be heading out. Waiting for Captain's call on this one. Maybe you're able to hold on your spot for another time.

hmmm...looks like another weekend of no drummer fishing Anyone know some good spots on the eastern suburbs to see some good waves crashing?

Don't under estimate a solid pig. If you don't stop them from the moment you hook up, you've already lost the battle. 10 lb line is for the skillful drummer fisho. Ppl who fish for luderick using 6lb have successfully landed them.

can't help you there but its not six spine. six spine has, you geussed it, 6 spines on its tail. the spines look like small hooks

Australian Fish Guide by Frank Prokop Doesn't teach you to fish but details many common species of fish caught on a hook. For $25 its good value

Sorry guys, didn't expect it but something urgent came up at work. i'm going have to pull out on the 26th.

i have the saltist version and i think they are built similarly. they light but strong. for the amount of money, its great value.

I for one have no need for it in the immediate future. But i definately want it in place. How many of you said dial-up was enough when DSL was around and charging $100+/mth for giving you only a few GB's about 10 years ago? You think you could browse SMH, Youtube, eday and FB all day on dial-up today? I know you all would say yes but i can bet it wouldn't be enjoyable. So by now, most of the city dwellers have jumped on to the DSL bandwagon paying decent prices and they're all happy again. Now imagine another 10 years ahead when content providers are producing richer higher quality media or applications requiring fast response times. Do you think DSL is going to be enough? And if you thought Telstra was going to come and future proof our broadband needs. Then think again. They were only going to implement Hybrid Fibre Coxial (HFC) cable. The maximum speeds you can achieve on HFC is by far less than optic fibre. Also, NBN has placed a limit on sharing a single fibre. Telstra will place as many customers as possible on HFC. If any of you came by an article a German research managed to send an equivalent of 700 DVD's in one second over 50km. Thats just to give you an idea the possibilities of optic fibre in the future. We still haven't found the speed limits of optic fibre yet. As for prices initially, it maybe expensive. Don't forget the infrastructure is open access which will create new businesses and competition. NBN has no say which company you must join up with, thats your choice. Just like 10-15 years ago, unheard of companies like iiNet, Internode, TPG and the like started making a name for themselves when they had access to Telsra copper phone lines. They competed with Telstra and prices began to fall gradually. I think we will see the same happening again. Like all technologies, prices come down. So to all nay sayers stop thinking what it will do today but think what the possibilites are in the future. You too would be pleased that you had fibre when your mate uploads an uncompressed 1 hour footage fighting a marlin in 1080p at 60 fps.

wow...you really shot down my idea as a tow car

hey Mike, I would be interested if it was organised on a weeknd

Well be careful with rock fishing this weekend You can try Clifton Gardens Wharf, Spit Bridge, Pyrmont Finger Wharf or Balmoral Wharf, all inside the harbour

depends how long it is? you may get away with just using australia post otherwise you'll need to use couriers like toll

most annoying fish in the world, along with mados and stripeys!
