brilliant mate 14 years old and black under his belt you must be one happy dad and congrats on your black as well cheers gary

well done des and a big thanks stewy for the heads up on the dollys we got a feed and heaps off snapper and shark bait for an up coming trip to crowdy cheers gary

we'll be out chasing small blacks call sign scorpion good luck everyone cheers gary

nope staying local this weekend but good luck to all the raiders up in port cheers gary

well done stewy very jelly bro we will be fishing friday so stay on the radio channel 21 cheers gary

well done on the stripe you will now be hooked on game fishing welcome to your new addiction cheers gary

as mentioned above gars are a great bait on gang hooks if your fishing for tailor or kings slow retrieved in the washes but for trolling there are 3 or 4 options do a google search type rigging a ballyhoo or ballyhoo rig cheers gary

just a heads up raiders with the warm water pushing in close this weekend might just go off big time and with the run off small blacks we could be in for a record number off fish caught off sydney i know everything could well change through the week but the swell pulse and currants all look good my only problem is i will be up the coast looking after my dad for four days good luck everyone cheers gary

i don;t have a problem with anyone catching or killing sharks thats fishing and to be honest i always carry shark traces he may well off had a few kings sharked and if it had happened to me i would off started shark fishing as well but and its a big but to have a 50 tiaga handy is a bit rich for the harbour unless you hunting sharks and still over kill but i will say from personal experience if the media can't get all the facts or the story is a bit dull they will make up all sorts off bs cheers gary

billy for the rest off the year were skipping gars or slow trolling live small macs hope this works cheers gary

congrats great post now make shore you enter it in catch off the month cheers gary

well you did better than us we went o/o/o and over 120km but thats game fishing there were a few blacks caught in the bill haywood bash and many dollys but for us zip cheers gary

well done on the black and love the release video cheers gary

glad to hear your happy with the poles and i love the video it sure gave the fella a workout holding the bill again well done great team effort cheers gary

congrats on the black this is shaping up to being a cracker year cheers gary

hey raiders getting ready for the marlin run ,checking the boat[needed two new batterys ]trailer needed [new wheel bearings] and greased up the jocky wheel,checked the flares were not out off date then i checked the eperb bugger the battery was out off date rang around and found out to get the battery changed by gme would set me back 270.00 and they would check the hole unit it would take 2 weeks, i could have changed the battery my self but not the components easy i thought just get a new one,rang around and no one had the model i needed then i gave roadrunner parts a ring and ian said he could get one in for me so a big thank you to road runner parts for the quick supply off the unit i needed now every thing is ready for my marlin chasing up and down the coast cheers gary

great fish great effort and i love the pics and vid. looks like a top run off fish this year cheers gary

big effort solo well done something you will remember for the rest off your life cheers gary

mmmmm that sux i would cut the whole section out and replace it what you can see with the pitting is only half the problem the whole area is corroded if you get the holes welded a pin hole turns into a hole the size off a 10 cent peace but having said that and being short off coin a patch job may work for a while i would just be a bit worryed about how sound the ass end is cheers gary

well done boys and a great video as well cheers gary

time to get out there raiders there is a hot marlin bight and warm currants off sydney right now i'll be hitting it hard for the next three days good luck everyone cheers gary

i havn,t read byrons post but knowing him well it would be a long read lol one thing i will say is a rapid rise or fall can really bring on a feeding frenzy one example off this was trolling for bonito around the gap and south we were picking up the odd one hear and there and a storm hit with lightning the fish went nutts for a good half hour when i got home i checked the bp and there was a sharp drop right on the hot bight just an example cheers gary

get a new prop. at very low speed it would be ok to get back to the ramp cheers gary

we sat out the wind in close at blue fish and headed out when in eased found the bait and birds every were at longreef wide worked the area for 3 hours for zip headed to the shelf then back in for zip cheers gary
