LEGEND thanks Huey. Ill give them a go, if I need to try get one new how long do you think it would take you to get one?

Hi raiders, Im hoping a few of you knowledgeable fishos will be able to help me. Last night while dusting off my engine I was a little rough and broke a piece connected to my forward and reverse cable on the motor end. I have no idea what the piece is called but it is connected to the cable on a spring and looks like it is made of some kind of ceramic. Luckily i checked again today and the other one is well on its way out. So does anyone know what these are called and does anyone know where I can get another set from? I am desperate to get out on the water this weekend so any help is appreciated. The motor is a 40hp Mariner, probably made sometime in the 80's. You can call me on 0422276974 if thats easier. Thanks

Add me please, I may have 2 spare spots but I will post closer to the date.

well done mate thats an awesome effort. After you started catching a heap of them did you drop back on the gear and see if you could land a few on really light line?

well done mate. I initially looked at that pic and thought "shit the waters dirty!! Then I realized it was the sand!!

Thanks lads. I think im still feeling the effects of my celebrations after Manlys win!!

well done mate thats a beast!

thats a screamer mate well done

thats awesome, well done mate.

GO YOU MIGHTY EAGLES!! I was at the Leagues club supporting the lads yelling out of control along with the thousands of other people at the club. The atmosphere was unbeleivable and the 40 point score line made the beers fall even faster by not having to sit there nervous until the final whitsle, it was all over by half time!!! Now we have 6 in the world cup squad, well deserved!! Cant wait till 2009.

Onya boys

Ncie work Steve, Pitty the chooks didnt turn in the second half against the warriors mate. Looks like will have to hold our wager off till next season!!

Nice work Vince. I need to get back into MH and chase these kings!!

Thats a fat sambo mate well done.

Good session mate, you'll never get shop squid again!

Hammered tonight in Manly while watching the mighty Warriors flog the Roosters. Tomorrow have a sponsors function so ill be liquored up again. Sunday hoping to get out and smash some harbor kings at some stage. Good luck everyone on the water.

Will have a little side wager for sure mate, ill let you concentrate on Friday night first though!! It was amazing how many boats were out there at this spot, there were at least 12 boats all drifting and jigging the same boat and everyone was catching. People were literally pusing each others boats off one another, it was a carpark!!

Hey Steve, mate when i was putting them back i made sure i was tossing them towards the harbor. Looks like your lot will be up against Manly if you can get past the warriors!! Hi Josh88 Got through that much fish easily, there were a lot of friends and family hanging for king fillets and cutlets by the time we got back after not having any through winter.

Hi Peter, I caught the jacket on one of the jigs funny enough. We only lost 1 jig for the day, and that wasnt to a jacket either it was a little miscommunication when a fish was dropped back over the side. Salmon Hunter. we were about 30km mate.

Hello all, I havent been fishing for months but I booked a jigging charter for Saturday with 2 mates the father in law and the brother inlaw and we weren't disappointed. We set out at 6am from Terrigal and made our way out to the first mark. The skipper was telling us how well they have been doing catching 50 the day before so on and so on. At first we didnt know what to think, was he just saying that because thats what we wanted to hear or was he for real. Well I can honsetly say now he was FOR REAL!! We arrived at the spot and he instructed us to drop the jigs. We were fishing 3 at a time in 100m of water and the very first drop we had a triple hook up within 30 seconds of fishing. From there on it was the most amazing fishing action I have ever seen. Kings were hitting the deck 1 after the other for at least 2 hours, every single drop produced at least 1 king with double and triple hook ups regularly. The average size would have been high 80's, biggest of the day went 96cm, none of a meter unfortunately. There were a heap of fat kings and not 1 undersized king, the smallest for the day went around 73cm. We brought home 30 kings, boated more then 60 and would have been hooked up to over 90. At one stage I thought I was into my first hoodlum but it turned out to be a massive seal which had latched onto my king. I got it all the way to the boat but before it finally let it go. We were getting that many hook ups you could tell if you had a contender for the 1m mark or you thought you might have a chance at biggest fish of the day and were a little disappointed if you new it wasnt. It was an absolute top day on the water and to cap it off Mighty Manly won as well as my beloved All Blacks!!

well done mate, solid session.

heading out on a kingfish jigging charter up the central coast!! hope the weather gods come to the party!

Nice work Jason, that would have given you a little curry!!

Im jealous now, well done mate great catch there. Pan fried snapper fillets with a side serve of salt and pepper squid sounds great right about now!!

very well done indeed, i thought i was reading the back of a playstation game.
