Cheers Netic Thanks for your help mate, thats pretty much the way I will setup....Snap swivel setup is a great idea.. regards Chris
-
Cheers Macka thats a top idea regards chris

So for example 20 lb braid(main line) tied to 20 lb Leader ( shock leader ) around 5 meters...??? then swivel to main leader say 40 lb and about 8 meters long.. hows that sound....???? regards Chris
-
Guy's I was wondering if a berley bucket was mounted next to the sounder sensor weather it would interfear with it...???? Anyone have any ideas....??? regards Chris
-
Thanks Bud All this tackle talk....give me Mate please tell me what is a shock leader and its purpose..? could'nt I just run the main leader straight onto the braid...? Regards Chris
-
Thanks guys Im new to this whole downrigging thing and if I can learn from people who have done/been around downrigging it should make my experience alot better...So 5 to 7 meters from the release clip ... Ok next how do you join leader to main line...surely you dont use a swivel...is there a particular knot to joint leader to braid...?? Sorry for all the questions fellas Cheers Chris
-
Guy's I was wondering how long of a leader you run when downrigging and what sort of length from the bait to the release clip...?? Regards Chris

Jeff this pump is not self priming so it must be mounted below the waterline..This is a thru transom pump which I will be setting up slightly different with my own pickup coming thru the transom then connecting to the pump....The pickup is designed to let the water flow whilst underway..The pump will only be used when stationary and I might also run it off a timer... regards Chris

Nice work Red....what time were you catching squid...???

The barrel was purchased from a company in Smithfield called REFLEX (60 litre) The outlet is just a sink fitting available at any boating shop as for the inlet set up I machined those up myself with a piece of 20mm conduit running down inside. Mugen

Hey guy's As I am new to this live baiting fishing.. Can anyone tell me what the best place to hook the Yakka. I've heard you can hook em just above the nose ...? Any advise would be great.. Thanks Raiders

your right its a lightweight heavyweight....if it wont hold up to a half decent Kingy the reel will be taking a swim

Hey Guys I was on ebay the other day and saw this reel for 99 cents ,so I put a bid on it and won it....Pretty cheap,I know it's not your top dollar reel but for 99 cents + postage it's not bad..Now all I have to do is hook up some decent Kingy's to test it out.....What do you guys think...?

Hi guy's and Gals Just a quicky about using plastics instead of regular bait ( prawns etc...) Now with plastics do you just cast them and let them sit and wait for a bite..? or is there some sort of technique ( flicking etc ) to lure the fish to them..? Any info would be greatfull
