Yeah, same thing happened to my jig rod. replacement tip guide had been glued with hot glue. now replaced with araldite.

Not sure about Botany but my experience is that they shut down through winter and loose a lot of condition if you can get them. I have always done best around tide changes and fresh flatty carcase is hard to beat for bait. also found around built up areas it best to stay close to your traps as there are some very helpful people out there quite willing to check or even take home your traps.

How to stop a whole squid from spinning on downrigger
Flickn Mad replied to mike2153's topic in Fishing Chat
Maybe try peeling or cutting the wings off. -
sensational. Another year and he will be unstoppable.

Beats working mate, the swimmers look fat.

An occy in a jar. That's funny.

Tough week on the Harbour. Kings Salmon Bream
Flickn Mad replied to Brian's topic in Fishing Reports
I don't mean to be a drag but a falling barometer would pose less preasure on a fish not more, not suggesting I have any better ideas though. how a marlin in 600 meters deep water knows a tide change is occurring is a mystery too me. -
Bloody shits, I mean shireits, whant to keep gods country all to themselves. The hacking is an ugly place, no fish and the people are terrible who would whant to go there anyway.

well done, maybe you should have put a circle hook through the yellow fins nose and tryied for a beakie aswell.

Good to see you are on the mend Paikea. As one of those "RAMP JOCKEYS" I am vey envious. Just as I tell my old man, don't take your health and spare time for granted, life is there to be lived and there are too many days spent working for the man to not go fishing when u can. If u need a decky I am sure there is no shortage a guys on this site who would put their hand up. I ll PM u next time I get an rdo and the weather looks ok my boat your spots.

A feed of reddies and flatties, chuck in the dollies and the weather wouldn't have seemed so bad.

That's mad, although some one on here was reporting being bitten clean of trolling off the heads a few weeks ago. as far as global warming being the cause im not so sure. probably 25 years ago there were reliable reports of green job fish caught at jb and I caught a 32 pound wahoo of the banks down there also.

Good effort mate, ive got frigates on 2kg braid before, I can only imagine how they go on fly.
-
Hard to say from that pic. Colours look like a squidgy slimey.
-
Good to see your taking your medicine Nursie. It never ceases to amaze me how aggressive juvenile fish can be. be it flatties taking ridiculous hardbodies or pinkies like yours. keep up the therapy and we will look forward to more reports.
-
That's awesome mate. My boy is two and obsessed with fish, I cant wait till I can get him fishing. keep it up and stay safe.
-
Yeah mate, as an after thought I asked the guys selling the radio if my old aerial would work, oh no they replied u need a new aerial aswell. Only after getting home and doing some research I find you are supposed to be licenced to use it also. is this one of those rules I am expected to ignore as I know several guys using vhf with no certs.
-
Well done, im not that surprised as the pros leadlineing for kings down the coast often get a couple of big reds amongst the kings on live slimies.
-
The only locals that are a problem there are the venomous type that have no limbs. There are other areas on the other side of the bay where "the locals" can be a problem. Places like the tubes can get packed and there are rules to be followed.

I have just bought a VHF radio to replace my 27 meg which just failed. The guys I got it from weren't much help. The unit I got is a lawrance link 5. I am wondering what you guys think of them and who to log in with fishing around Sydney heads and up and down the coast botany to broken bay.
-
Nice pearly mate. It is a shame the jackets arnt a kilo plus with no teeth.
-
Top fish mate. persistence well rewarded. Good on u for releasing it, that said I am sure no one would have begrudged you taking it home for a feast for family and friends. Do you want to name the beach or should we refer to it as spot x.
-
Ha haa. That's great going mate. Between jobs today I stopped down at the parra river near the refinery and watched some thing giving a school of mullet a hard time. I had the rod in the car but the area is sign posted no fishing due to the dioxins.
-
I am keen to try fishing the artificial off the gap. my plan is too troll out to and around the fad then anchor up and drop a few cubes back in a buly trail. I figured kings reds bonnies and may be a dolphin fish may be a chance. Any tips or reports would be great.

Yay, party at Fabs house. Well his neighbour aint gunna complain.
