There was weed at the back of budgewoi caravan park last week. Good fish those

I got out just fine, fish saw me coming though. It was a pretty easy bar crossing on sat morning, not much wind at 6am, half a meter swell and near the bottom of the tide. Ill have to have another crack

Hi All,
Im looking at going out through swansea bar on saturday (tide swell MRS and weather permitting) in a 4.3m Quintrex Fishabout. I hear of guys going through fine in smaller tinnys just wondering what some peoples thoughts are on crossing that bar in a smaller boat
Thanks in advance

Nope - its all about getting motors on hulls- watch the manufacturing plant move to Asia. I wandered through a Quintrex dealer a couple of weeks ago and they are nicely finished hulls but i really couldnt believe the prices for what is essentially a tinny.
I aggree they will probably move to asia. I reckon that will do nothing to the price though.

Change the trebles and see if that helps

The report was also kept from the public and a freedom of information request had to be submitted in order for anyone too see it. Im confident that after the media coverage, the report still wont be released.

We handline in Brisbane Waters and have heared multiple reports of bagging out in an hour recently. Had a go on the weekend and got 9 in about 3 hours. We use mullet fillets because the skin is tough and they dont like letting it go.
I remember reading somewhere the blues can go from egg to legal in 6 months. If this is true your numbers can bounce back very quickly.
Best of luck

Where have the numbers declined? Are you using traps?
Ignore me. I type before reading ALOT

Arvour 850 weekender diesel. Been salivating over these for a while, saw one at the boat show, spectacular. Look em up

Looks like a tentacle? But probably not

Trailer supplies shop could help. All the boat trailer stuff sounds like what you need

the measurement is across the carpace (eyes to bum). 8.5cm is a meal+

Hey @blindmullet please don't take this the wrong way .... its probably just me showing my age... but does anyone else find it somewhat funny to read "blindmullet" and "sewage spill" in the same topic ....
... as a kid I just remember we'd always be wary of blindmullets swimming off Sydney beaches that were near the old sewage outflows - especially when the king tides were on ! .... BAHAHA...

Your the first to mention the 'blindmullet' HAHAHA

Must have been the fishos, better lock them out.
Sydney Water is doing way more damage to the water ways than every fisho combined ever. This time is just an example of what gets media coverage. Who knows what gets a Media Blackout

I even Tow with that lock on my trailer, only time it’s had issue is whe. Reversing and I have to almost Jack Knife the trailer it bend the bar on the lock a little.
Otherwise it is fine when towing and reversing at the ramp.
The thieves bring their own tow hitch and a portable drill and just swap your out for theirs.
Yeah, 2 bolts and a hitch and the trailer is yours. Better off taking the whole drawbar off.

Couldnt get near the boat last night, was floggin down rain but ill try describe it. I use a 4/0 snapper hook on the bottom, big sinker bout a foot from the hook fixed not running, dont want to spook them when pulling them in. I always use mullet for crab bait. Leave it on the bottom for a while then extremely slowly start pulling it in, If theres weight or the line moves sideways, Crab on. Get them to a depth where you can only just see them and very slowly net them. I was taught this when i was very young and never used a trap in my life. Hopefully when the rain stops i can get a video out on the water.

Also worth noting that I have caught far more blue swimmers on a $4 handline than I have in my 2 x $40 traps.
Handline is the way to go. Traps take forever, get stolen, lost, use fuel etc. Bycatch is usually a big flatty which i dont really like to call 'bycatch'.
Handlines are far more productive where i fish

Not many at my local, at least not when im there lol

For warranty, its best to stick to what the manufacturer recommends. If you tell them you did something they dont recommend, they will use that as an excuse to not honor the warranty.
