  1. gday lads,

    got out yesterday as planned for zilch.

    there was still a bit of sun around and the harbor was great, i was on full throttle all over the place.

    Tried a few markers, the wedding cake, neilsen marker and only lost 1 squid strip in 2.5 hours. Chucked a heap of lures around as well with a bait down but couldnt get anything.

    better luck next time.

    Cheers

  2. Hello all,

    A mate and I are heading out after work today to see if we can score ourselves an arvo king.

    Just wondering if anyone else is going to be out there and would like to stay in touch so that more area could be covered in a short time?

    Ill be in at Tunks at around 6pm and fishing the main harbor or middle harbor

    PM text or call me, 0422276974

    Cheers

    Dan

  3. Gday all,

    Thought id post a quick report from Fridays session.

    Finished work and Steve and I fancied our chances at an arvo king. Got to Tunks around 7ish loaded up with fresh squid caught previously and motored into MH with lines in the water by 720pm. After about 20 minutes Steve goes to check his line and feels a bit of weight on the end of his 80lb mono. I call it for a snag but it starts coming in very slowly. After a few more meters line back we called it for a mooring chain but then he got even more line back. With his rod buckled over but not pulling we had no idea what it was, then we saw a big blue flash and looked at each other and said "what the F@#$ is that" after more winding and as it became clearer we discoverd this monster,

    After a coule minute fight we finally had Steves first fold out chair on board. It went about 110cm from the top of the back rest to the bottom of the leg. A new PB for Steve and a first onboard my boat. I dont want to give out exactly where I was becasue where thinking of heading back this week to see if we can bring in the picnic table to go with it.

    A couple boats went past and pissed themselves once they saw us get it in.

    Cheers

    Ps: On a serious note, what kind of knob would chuck it in the water. Take your rubbish with you!!
