  1. Marty,

    I noticed you will be fishing at The Entrance soon so try lip hooking thoose poddys and suspending them under a float, Not only will :beersmile: it produce fish but float fishing is a sure fire winner with the kids!!

    Good luck and let us know how ya go.... Ps. Most lizards in the lakes are only average size so those 5&6 cm poddys will do just fine.

    Bruce :beersmile:

    Ooops, got me smilie in the wrong spot

    thanks bruce, i think the girls will only use prawns (dead ones at that) :074: they don't like to touch anything thats alive,even the fish they catch, so they keep me busy. but i will be using the poddys and trying your float rig.

    thanks again bruce. :beersmile:

  2. Hi Marty I'm quick on the draw today. I've got my gear and raincoat ready for a morning session.

    You'll have other good advice too. There are many other top rig men always willing to assist

    As stumpy tells me to say , I'll just say Right listen here-----:-

    Poddys: Try them out first on three octopus hooks snelled one above the other with lumo tube in between, the last hook dropped down the top so it stands out the opposite way and it will turn out at an angle as you tighten the line. Run three poddies two hampered and struggling near nose to nose and the other one swimming freely with a bit of excess baggage slowly coming along.

    Flathead will take one look at that and they break up those shananigans pretty fast, Marty.

    Try out where you caught the poddies but around the perimeter. If no action there move to a spot where you only occasionally find poddy mullet, and always try the channel of thro a separate rod into it

    Hope this helps Marty and hope you catch good flathead and I feel a bigger bait will go always go well to get them interested and you started.

    Cheers Marty

    thanks byron, you have some great knowledge in that head of yours, we need to get together for a fish someday.

    thanks again,

    cheers marty.

  3. Mate, not sure about using a 'potty' mullet for bait :1prop: Could leave your flatties tasting a bit nutty!

    THANKS SAMMY I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING . HAS BEEN EDITED NOW THANKS.

  4. HI GUYS , CAN ANYONE TELL ME THE BEST WAY TO RIG UP LIVE PODDY MULLET (PODDY'S ARE ABOUT 6-7cm) AND THE BEST WAY TO RIG THEM FOR DRIFTTING FOR FLATTIES. I HAVE CAUGHT HEAPS OF PODDY'S

    BEFORE TO SHOW THE KIDS BUT NEVER FISHED WITH THEM.

    THANKS MARTY.

    PS. JEWGAFFER, I CATCH THE PODDYS JUST NEAR YOUR FAV SPOT ON THE COAST, SO MAYBE THEY MIGHT WORK THERE. LETS HOPE. :thumbup:

  5. A very good question Marty though the entrance always had some access in to allow fish to come in and others to go out and spawn. Opening up big time could only attract access from more directions and it's more or less like removing and turning over silt in a river as far as the sand goes when churned up over larger areas when hit by big seas..

    I.E. fish in warm currents going into cooler ones etc and for other species vice versa

    Therefore to my way of thinking opened up big time becomes a big plus.

    Hope this helps mate and triggers them off for you.

    Close to the white pole on your left off the bridge looking from the south side is one of the best big bream spots on the coast.

    Cheers, Marty and enjoy the Brooker up there

    Jewgaffer :1fishing1:

    thanks jewgaffer for all your input, the girls and i will be there next week for a week, i will try your spot and let you know. thanks again, Marty.---can't wait to give the boat a good run.

  6. i heard today off a mate in the ses that the entrance has been opened up big time to the sea due to

    the floods, will this improve fishing inside or will it make it worse and is there any raiders fished there since

    the floods. im just glad my camp site is still there- i hope.

    any local feedback would be appreciated.

    thanks marty.

    hi rzep, i do think the camper trailers are the go, but then i have to take the work ute to tow the trailer and the misses has to tow the boat unless we get one with the rack for the boat on top ,it all comes down to $'s but i love the freedom of camping,where some friends of ours won't cop it for less than 5 stars,they don't know what there missing do they rzep. nice camper you have there buddy.

    cheers marty. :beersmile:

  9. did anyone go to the penrith camping expo and see the big barra tank and lure demo,

    i thought the barra were a bit under fed and not to interested in his lures even thow i

    bought one of his frog lures (because my youngest thought it was cute.) there were some

    really mad looking camper trailers which lin wants now instead of our tent, which would be much

    easyer to put up than our 63kg canvas tent we have now, the one she looked at was about 38k which

    makes our 63kg tent look good for a few years yet. not that many fishing stands , but some great

    kayak stands they have some mad set up's on them i neally broke out the credit card till lin looked at me

    with that look. but anyway a good day out for the family.

    cheers marty. :beersmile:

  10. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL ON SUNDAY, :1fishing1:

  11. I THINK TAKING THE ESKY IS A BIT OVERBOARD, :074:( IT COULD STILL HAVE BEER IN IT.)

    BUT GOING OVER YOUR BAG LIMIT IS A NO NO. :mad3: AND A EXPENSIVE TRIP FOR THEM.HA HA.

    PS. I WOULD LIKE JUST TO GET TO THE BAG LIMIT ONE DAY. :074::074::074:

  12. looking at the pics brought back an old memory of when my wife was washing down the boat at

    umina,when all of a sudden a pelican on the light pole above her let her have it (you know with what).

    it was so funny at the time :074: (the wife was not impressed) :wife: and she surely let me and the pelican

    know her feelings. iv'e wondered why she never washes the boat down for me anymore.

  13. nice tailor there tiger shark,even look better when beer batted,

    the pain in the finger is worth it when you bring home a good catch.(still fn hurts doesn't it ).

    as you said the show must go on ,good on ya mate. :thumbup:

    marty.

  14. marty was this above or below the weir?????

    fished below the weir on sun arvo for zip :05: couldnt see any activity on the surface at all.

    The guy mullet fishing off the weir was pulling in mullet pretty much every cast

    hi dangles, we went up towards the s bends about 2km from the boat ramp.
