G'day raiders hit the harbour at 6 this mornigh with my cousin [samy the salmon] first time out on his older brothers boat. taking it for a test run. started out for some squid but only a few spots tried for nothing keept in contact with josh88 and he filled us in on all the surface action but as soon as we got ther it went straight down the wind and chop started to pick up and not wanting to puch the boat we headed for calmer waters of middler harbour at the sacrifice of kingies on the surface tried the usual haunts around MH with prawns and fresh squid for zipp final spot anchored up and got some good burley going snapper everywhere with the odd good sized bream, leatherjackets and flouder with some yakkas hanging around we had 2 light rods out and 2 heavy rods and of course the kingies go for the light rod with only 50 yards of line on the spool. was taken right to the finall knot 5 times before either bent hooks or bust offs anyway boat ran well except for a tilt problem and great to get out there soryy no photo's but saving the memory space for the kings cheers, declan

yea was a great day out maybe next time you'll do better than landing 1 out of 5

Cottage Point with Josh88 will be awsome and cant wait for a shot at my first jew. Declan.

Hi livo the reason i say to take into account the convienience is that the motto is out fishes not out catches so id like to tak into accout every aspect of fishing and convienienceis a big one i think. Thanksfor the tips jew gaffer!!!! thanks to everyonewho has voted and i also look foward to testing this theory. Cheers and keep voting!! Mcfusher P.S it is a school project but im not breaking any rules as this is a great source of info.

G'day raiders This semester we have been instructed to conduct a reaseach project and have to choose out own topic. i have chosen to put gulps motto "out fishes live bait" to the test. i will try on numerous occassions to put both out and see the difference. but before i do that i thought i should see what sydney best fishos have to say But remember to take into account the convinence of buying gulp compared to catching squid before you vote. any advice or tips will be greatly aprietcated and please vote in the poll. Cheers Mcfusher P.S stay tuned to this post over the next few months for my results.

i was under the impression weights should be around 10lb??????? mcfusher

Cheers MallacootaPete hope to get a spot if not will probably be down at clifton anyway Cheers Mcfusher

Hey raiders, me and my cuz (samythesamlon) are reallyinto the kings and would love to come to the social. one problem:we dont have a big boat . If anyone has room for the 2 of us that would be great we are 14 but very experienced around boats and fishing. I work at a marina and he is doing his boat up. Would be good 4 us to go on the same baot (parental Trust thingy) Anyone interested give us a pm or sumthing. Would really love to meet other raiders aswell. Cheers Mcfusher And Samythesamlon

let us know how u go as i often use tunks to launch the tinny. (i wish i had fish big enough to use the table though hehe) isnt it really scaly and yuk on the table? cheers Mcfusher

Netic great session mate!! Awsome vids and what a huge bust off Well done again mcfusher

thanks chris. my mate would like and evinrude but might be willing to change. also any help on where to by a new one would be helpful. thanks Mcfusher

Hi raiders a mate is looking to buy an 150hp evirude engine to power his boat and he asked me to make this post. it can be new or used but not to old. any advice appreiciated cheers mcfsuher

Agree with other two

good fish there mate!!! well done for persisting Can i ask the definition on hoodlum as i thought it was a king over a metre?? Mcfusher

HAHA thats fishing! One day out on the water and your hooked for life! welcome to the sport and you've come to the right place to learn about it. Good Luck on your next outing Mcfusher

Wow!!! nice haul of squid. Were u west of the spit bridge cause i have had no luck there??? Mcfusher

G'day landbased i dont know about pittwater but u can always rent a tinnie from cottage point (on cowan) http://www.cottagepointkiosk.com.au/ hope this helps mcfusher

I thought sometimes, when the yakka dies, the bottom jaw falls open and the fish starts spinning and the hook comes out. Just what i thoguht so may be wrong. what do others think? Mcfusher

You can also hook it through the bootom and then top of its mouth to lock the jaw shut. hold the hook better but interesting to see what other raiders think. Mcfusher

Thanks raiders for all the info and help hopefully land a kingie soon. And samythesamlon: PM sent. cheers and tight lines Mcfusher

thanks southerly another question: what time about is the end of kingie season?? ino the water temp hangs aroung longer than the air temp but for how long cheers guys Mcfusher
