[1 Fish + 1 Shark]

Top is a Pike and the shark is a Wobbegong. Pike are no good to eat but the wobbegong sharks make great tucker. However they are now protected.

i dont think its a wobbegong i thought they had much more wiskers where as that doesnt have any.

no clue what it is but

[Why Is Soccer The Best Ball Game?]

Yeh maybe because Berrick was 15, 16 years old when at the broncos, not many kids get first grade starts at that age. League is a better game than soccer but its diminishing due to financial woes and the worsening quality of the game through teams like melbourne bringing in wrestling crap and idiotic selectors and people in charge making stupid rules. Serious changes need to be made in league in order for it to survive but nobody seems to be doing anything about it....

And if you hadn't noticed the Wallabies are doing pretty well with players like Berrick Barnes and Ryan Cross, they've won 6 out the last 7 games and look in good shape to take out the tri-nations. That is more league selectors not opening their eyes to the quality in front of them as well as not developing and keeping valuable players in the game.

Again you can't really compare skills because of the different rules and jobs of players in certain positions.

It would be good to see a league vs union team with say each set of rules per half.

i believe you can compare league and union because the only main difference is the two extra man on the field and the scoring.

dont get me wrong i love to watch union but i that union is becoming a much easyer game to play at the top level of it. berrick barnes was older then that because he was actually playing nrl where as he would of been playing in the lower grades if he was 16 or 17.

apart from the wrestling thats coming into the game by melbourne i actually think its become a much better game. with the defence structures getting better its forcing the attacking teams to look at better plays and options to be able to score. where melbourne are clearly out ahead of aswell.

on another note how do people think sonny bill will go at union?

i reckon he'll be a waste and im glad hes goone he wasnt that good of a player any way.

what are others thoughts?

[Why Is Soccer The Best Ball Game?]

When i think about it you cant really compare it at all betweeen league and soccer or union and soccer. BUT you can compare league and union hahaha

where league is more skillful because union has players like berrick barnes who couldnt even get a start in the broncos nrl team( even when players like darren lockyer where injured) and know hes starting in the australian team. same as ryan cross (off the top of my head) i dont think he represented australia in league..

see how this ones goes.. ha

[Why Is Soccer The Best Ball Game?]

I'll bet more football players can play league than vice versa.

to be honest none of them would have the strenght to take a hit in nrl or union or even afl in come cases. the way they act after being gently nudged is just too much for them that they have to fall to the ground

cant stand it!

[Why Is Soccer The Best Ball Game?]

im pretty sure kicking a foot ball and making it land just out from the goal line and have a team mate there to catch it takes much more skill then anything to do it soccer. i bet most soccer players wouldnt even be able to run and pass a footy and hit the player in the right position. where as anyone can kick a soccer ball

leagues the sport

thats my two cents

[Collin The Whale]

i thought that no one even tried to save it. most of the specialists wanted it goone.

i believe they shoulda tried more things as a similar situation happend in sandiago and they saved that whale.

[Stckton Beach]

just find a good gutter along the beach and your in for a chance

[Boat Licenses]

i wanna look at getting a jet ski cause im a mad surf aswell as fisher and use the jet ski for like towing in and out.

is there a rule on how close you can use a jet ski to a beach?

[Boat Licenses]

ok thanks guys

[Boat Licenses]

Hey raiders,

just been looking over the boat licenses and on http://www.maritime.nsw.gov.au/sbh/licence.html#types

for general license it says 'General Licence

A licence for people aged 16 years and over to drive any vessel, except a PWC at 10 knots or more.'

does this mean you can drive a pwc under 10 knots without having to get a PWC license aswell?

thanks

[Bait Casters]

hey Raiders

im wanting to try out a cheap bait caster but have a few questions.

are you able to chuck out bait on it or just lures?

and if you do chuck bait out are you able to put the rod in a rod holder/put it down etc. or will it birds nest?

cheers

[Origin 2]

Even if there were some 50/50 calls i thought NSW got a few of them in game 1.

Queensland were the much better team on the night though totally deserved it.

now lets see the Maroons win the decider

GO QLD!!

[Mullet Trap]

G'Day Stockoboy

Plenty of great suggestions above. I had a lot of success with a plastic goldfish bowl, with a piece of flyscreen across the top. The screen was held on by a rubber band around the lip of the bowl, and there was a hole in the centre of the screen roughly the size of a 50c coin.

In the end, I purchased a plastic colapsable fish trap for about $10. Works very well. and takes minimal room in the boat or your bag.

Hodgey

Thanks for all the replies guys.

Also when catching mullet do i have to be on the shores edge or can you drop it just off the side of your boat?

thanks

[Poddy Mullet Spots In Middle Harbour.]

I usually catch mullet land based from the Roseville Bridge and upstream from there. They are usually only a few feet from the shore. Catch them using bread as bait.

Cheers Chopper75

Thanks heaps

[Poddy Mullet Spots In Middle Harbour.]
