  1. Thanks..How about My flatties? Yeh anytime now for the big ones.
  2. Thanks. dwan8337 and Damien.Yeh Saturday wasn't a bad day and we both got kings from places other than Long reef . Hopefully we'll see the metre ones soon. I added some pics.
  3. Nice work ..there mate. Pity about the big one.
  4. Went out on Saturday. It was raining but the wind and the waves were low. Downrigged and picked up 3 legal kingies, 1 legal on soft plastics and many rats ..then try for Dusky flatheads inside the bay on plastics. All in all a good day in the bay. Ran into a few familiar faces.. Some videos of recently caught kings. Check out this funny Vid. Kingy from a Yak. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozL-JhHTgIo
  5. Biggest whiting I ever seen. Got my vote.
  6. Caught heaps of sargent bakers with them. Might of hooked a snapper but pulled hook into the fight. Will try more next season.
  7. No worries..That's great..your boy looks very happy. Cheers Mark. Appreciate the comments.
  8. Lags, You can see it via LCD backpack or via smartphone if you have a hero 3, But it is too much hassle. Go pros have wide angle so you just point it in the direction and you pretty will capture the action.
  9. Top snapper! and on bait too.
  10. Thanks for the comments..You gotta catch what is biting. Xentric,,Get yourself the Navionics apps and the FADs are marked as yellow. There is one 9 Kms out straight from Maroubra , next to the peak. Sometimes the fish are not right against the FAD, so trolling an Xrap around them on approach gives a good indication if they are there or not. Then get up close and throw squid strips or Gulp 6 inch grubs or jerk shads..the whitish colour lures work the best.
  11. Good work on the crabs and flatties.. Hail!. We found squid..Where were you trying for them? but you are right..they hard to find lately.
  12. Another session with dollies. This time with Go Pros. Watch in on HD to see the fish take the lure under water. No size to them..just putting my cousin into some action. Enjoy let me know what you think. Cheers and Happy new year.
  13. Nice to hear mate..they are fun with plastics and light outfits. Were they aggregating at a device? or just at some ramdom 60m mark?
  14. It can be any time of day but early morning is best but they it's even midday when the sun is high. East till i see some surface structure.. or anything. I got a video coming from a 2nd trip with lots of under water action, will post soon. Xraps are in the tackle shops, Xrap magnum 10 or 15. Yep they are a lure..on approaching I use Xraps to see if the fish are there. When they hit the xrap, then they are on. There are two close ones one off Manly and one off maroubra, approx 9kms from shore. depends if your 4.3 has high sides, you can prob do it in a nice day.
  15. top catch there mate.. family effort too.
  16. Thanks..Wasn't targeting Hoodies Dan. Ask Damien. Thanks. just lucky i guess. u can work out location from one of the pics as I didn't blurr out the background like some . Thanks buddy..Yeh they were jumping and carrying on adds to the excitement. and goes nutso on the deck too. Yeh tasty and beautiful and fun to catch Internationally reknowned fish. Plenty of rats around. Yeh mate..let yourself loose on the fish on the 4th, they dont stand much of a chance. Cheers..Where are the hoodies? No worries Paul..Good to have you on board. Good to chat and exchange fishing ideas and glad to get you into some action. You did better n the yakas than us...we were bait conservation mode most of the time . Lets do it again soon.. Yep but in good size but
  17. Hi Guys Went for a fish with a few raiders ..Paul as my decky and Quintrex480 on a two boat convoy. Squid were not easy ..neither were yakkas..got a few and started DR ing. Only Rats after rats...after a tip off from one on my new fishing buddy that dollies are around. pulled the pin and headed east. troll the xrap and got hit everytime. flick gulps and got smash..plenty of action and the sound of two sustain drags going off was music. Plenty of throw backs but we got 3 legals..biggest was 75cm.
  18. I use them all the time. Diff colours work best for diff days but.
