[Ballina amateur - finally]

Nice work  sounds like a fun day

[Gotta Love Cod Fishing!!]

CRACKER FISH

[Braid getting caught in bail wire]

Looking at foto your picking up loose hangin line its not gettin caught in a crack or anything  close bail by hand and pull line   that looks like loose loops hangin in breeze is your issue not the reel

[Anyone had a BFG boat before?]

Bfg were made in newcastle area  i had a few mates who owned them and have fished out of them  they sre a decent shape and handle well  if motor is ok and price is low  go for it

[Permit on fly]

Cracker fish

[Broughton Island]

Pm sent

[Bream Batterers]

They look great  my parcel turned up today  but im up at lismore working for a few days   cant wait to try the chip Sps

[Breaking a red drought]

Nice red devil   had brekkie at coffee shop next to tackle shop at  nambucca frday morn  the water looked good there  hope to get up there soon  bouvht a 399 proline

[Trout]

I fish up closer to lithgow  so not sure on southern streams

[Fishing in the entrance]

The best tip is to stick to smaller plastics to match the local prawn run  every time i try larger plastics i get nothing      drop back smaller than 6cm and catch fish  natural browns like pumpinseed or motoroil are good starters

[Kingie “sharked”]

Bugger

[North Coast land based]

Great report mate  i checked out brunswick hds today  beautiful spot but not much in the way of fish

[Trout Fishing so far this season.]

Im amazed at how healthy and how well the stocks have held up in two streams i fish  after major flood events the fish have been great  with bows up to 50cm

[Better to lose the lure]

Invest in some hard sole wetsuit booties for wading   

[Off set circle hooks]

Biggest problem is a small problem  unless the fish has the hook n bait down in its throat it wont catch in the mouth  i tried them on snapper and they are useless in my opinion  they are great on tuna marlin n big kings but not so good on smaller species with hard mouths as they bounce out instead of catching

[Trout]

3hr drive mate  but worth it

[Nepean 20/11]

Nice work  good to see they all wernt washed out to sea

[Trip to the Snowies]

Great report  great results  nice to see other raiders catchin trout  none of my mates bar one  like them  cant understand how a nice peaceful stream an fun fishing isnt enjoyable

[Boo hoo to fishing!]

Head for the hills neil

[Quiky]

No idea mate  short n stout   freaked me out

[Blue mtns 6/11]

Try these jackson 1.7 inch crays on a 1/40th head 1/0 hook  drift them thru fast flows where you cant fish divers

[Blue mtns 6/11]

Good day out by the sounds of it  when the water drops you should do better

[Quiky]

Sourced some more of the hawk lures neil  they are a standout lure  a great arvo fishing  3hrs drivin each way but totally worth it    hope i catch stumpy again  freaked me out when i grabbed him to remove the lure

[Quiky]

All released in good health  i usually only keep them if damaged badly   the deformed fish was very healthy and deep thru the body  but only had bout half of its rear end   fought well an swam off for my next trip

[Quiky]

I did a late minute flying run to the bush yday  hit my fave trout stream an wasnt dissapointed  between 1pm and 5pm i landed an released over 20 trout and 2 redfin  i got one at 50cm and i caught a deformed fish as well  a great arvo  and my hawk lure smashed em
