  1. Just out of interest................4 stroke engines? Whats the opinions on running carbies dry on them? I dont do it on mine, but just curious.
  2. Short answer for me is........far too much, and far more than I would/will ever use or need 🤣. But the old "just in case" phrase always rears its ugly head.
  3. Not advice sorry (all the other comments have been so useful and spot on) but just a comment on boat ramps and etiquette...or lack of it mostly which probabaly adds to your anxiety too. Just can't believe these days the amount of inconsiderate morons at boat ramps that don't give a rats about anyone else apart from themselves and their desire to get into the water at any cost and in front of others just so they can tear up and down the waterways. Most of the time they wait till on the ramp and then hold everyone else up cos they haven't done an preparation before backing down the ramp......grrrr Sorry for my vent, but its so frustrating ☹️

    One smart dad.

    Thats my idea of exercise 🤣
  5. It certainly was a free flowing great game. No boofheads either but (in my opinion) there was annoying commentary from 2 of the biggest boofhjeads on the sideline....Joey and Gus😒
  6. Words escape me @JonD.......absolutely brilliant photos mate
  7. But at least your team does win games 😉
  8. I've been a Raiders fan since their inception in 1982, both myself and my wife went to school with a number of players back then. Sure we've won a couple of flags...but omg can they be frustrating to follow . Particularly this and the last few years, but like all good supporters should, I stick with them through thick and thin. At least we get 2 points this week from the bye 🤣
  9. That's a great story mate. I can fully imagine how the young fella and yourself both felt. well done.
  10. As others noted, there are better eating fish out there, but in my opinion there is absolutely nothing wrong with a freshly caught, bled and skinned salmon. Pop it on the bbq or chuck it in a curry, fishcake or even better, they come up a treat in a smoker. Apart from that, they are an awesome fighting fish that provide great fun on light tackle.
  11. Salmon are such fun on light, gear. well done.
  12. Well done, thats a nice fat Luderick.
  13. @Isaac Ct no probs. A lot of the places that I mentioned in my original reply are relatively close to the city and are accessible by bitumen roads. Cotter and Paddys River near the Cotter Dam wall are only 20 minutes out of the city.
  14. @Ganguddy Goodoo Canberra is certainly not as good a trout fishery as it used to be, but most places are unfortunately like that nowadays with increased fishing pressure and sadly Carp and Redfin in a lot of our waterways. I have lived in Canberra for around 60 years and fished everywhere around here for that period. As I advised @Isaac Ctin my reply trout are harder to locate, but there are still plenty of streams where you can find them still. You are correct re Cotter River and Flea Creek, but as you rightly pointed out, they do require a drive on tracks that are wet . And even though Isaac never commented back on my advice, I assumed that he didnt want to venture too far out of the area.
  15. @Isaac CtTrout are becoming increasingly difficult to find around here now. There are some nice little trout streams just out of Canberra towards Cotter Dam (you're not allowed to fish in the dam btw). Cotter River between the dam wall and junction of Murrumbidgee River does hold some trout (and Redfin unfortunately). Paddys River nearby holds a small population of small trout too. You may be lucky in the murrumbidgee but more likely to encounter Carp or a Murray Cod possibly. Gudgenby River which is a fair bit furher out along the Naas and Tidbinbilla Rd may hold some small trout still. The local lakes in Canberra (particularly LBG) used to have good populations of trout, but you'd be lucky now to score one...plenty of Carp, Murray Cod & Yellowbelly though. Molonglo River could still hold some trout in various spots, but again plenty of Carp etc Failing all that, maybe a trip up to Eucumbene Dam may be a better option. Its about 2 hours from Canberra. Hope this helps you somewhat. cheers
