    Pulling out of Wilderness Island Trip - shoulder still in recovery!

    Slow and steady, Roberta. No good undoing the corrective surgery and prolonging the day you're back out on the water terrorising the piscatorial fraternity!

    Great to see that you could transfer booking fees etc. I reckon the ukelele is probably good physio so strum away to your heart's content. :sun:

    Loking forward to your first report back on the water.

    Cheers

    Terrific report Rob. A shame about the Jewy but some very tasty consolation prizes amongst the inkers. The session on the pigs sounded like a cracker! Any issues cleaning the ink off the yak? Keep the reports coming mate!

    Cheers

    Good stuff Stu. Any day on the water, regardless of weather, is a good one.

    Good luck chasing the cod mate. I expect to see some crackin' photos of your 1st, 2nd, .....

    (With the water cooling down now, slow your retrieve down even more so the lure 'pesters' them. There is good numbers of cod moving down here now so I hope they put in an appearance for you. Enjoy the first strike! :biggrinthumb: )

    Cheers

    Whiting on lures help

    in Saltwater Fishing Chat

    Posted

    Whiting on surface lures generally require a warm water temp to really 'fire'. 24 degrees or warmer will see them consistently and aggressively attack lures. As the water temp cools, so does their activities. When they are firing, they will be looking for a lure that is worked very briskly across the top of the water' without a pause. Most of the time they will shy away from a lure once it stops, but there will be the occasional exception. Tom's suggested method with plastics should see you getting a few :thumbup:

    Great pictures, were those emus very large?

    They were both taller than me and appeared to be in excellent condition and full plumage. I have seen plenty of emus whilst fishing in the past at Tuross

    but I have never witnessed them swimming! I have seen roos swimming many times though.
