That’s awesome- is he one of the costi brothers - that’s a hell of a lot of Flathead practice- plus you need a samurai blade knife !!! ???
Maria and I just decided he can have a crew spot anytime!
But I agree like you it’s going to take me some time to get this accomplished.
But just to put it out there - Maria just said she’ll be helping me clean fish next time using that technique!!
Stay tuned- I’ll post a video as it happens ! Bahaha
Cheers Zoran
I'm looking forward to seeing that!

Thanks Zoran.
I have been using that method for probably the last 5 years and it works well.
I have been toying with changing to this one but haven't been out much lately. I don't think I'd ever get to this standard though.

I was just driving home thinking about Burrill and there is your report. Did you catch the blackfish on nippers or worms?

I live in peakhurst heights but probably could go have look if my dad can drive me thanks for the offer mate. Am I better off using split shot as its easier to find or sheet lead? I know sheet lead is better. I bought JW floats and they need a lot of lead to keep em down.... Need to make my own
I sent you a PM

I have no idea where to buy the sheet lead though lol hope I can find it
If your around the Holsworthy area I will give you some.

I haven't had a decent crack a the black fishing thing. Only a couple of goes with my uncle who had them worked out.
He mostly used tiny bits of sheet lead folded over and squeezed onto the line and he caught plenty.

Ricks probably right, mines lower than that on my transom and it struggles to pick up at above planing speed so ive also got a pickup plumbed in seperately- my old boat had an externally mounted pump on a pickup which forced water into the pump- it never missed a beat, my current set up is a series of compromises and ive never been 100% happy .
I agree the transom mounted pump might not be as tidy but it works great.

I'll see how it goes when I'm travelling @rickmarlin62 and then update post.
Thanks for the kind words @zmk1962. I'm slowly getting through my list. I think that the windscreen
has got to be one of the next things, after I put my larger fuel tank in.
In case anyone is wondering, my 1 key is a bit hit and miss, so if you notice 28 above, then that's sikaflex 218!
I struggled with my laptop with dodgy keys for 2 years before I realised I could replace the keypad for 20 bucks

It looks like a well thought out set up Zoran. What do you use for the weights on the deep drop.

Nice one a few flatties for a feed. How big was the king?

Hey Welster, pretty sure this is the same story with no paywall please correct me if I'm wrong. So sad to think what these blokes went through out there just trying to put bread on the table.

Thanks for that much appreciated.

Good move on using pressure hose it should be that way from the factory.

It may not of helped in this situation but it's further proof the bureaucrats will tell us one thing and do another. It's very sad and disappointing to here stories like this.

Superb write up mate and congrats on the cracking snapper.
You have me wondering with the weight. My PB of 71 I thought was about 5kg.

Looks like ill go back to 91 unleaded and save myself 18c/litre!!!
Ive read that about the mandatory additives on other websites like racq and nrma and whatnot, but then other sites will say the complete opposite, so who do you believe!!! So frustrating, the internet has made it so everyone has easy access to information and misinformation!!!
Our local fuel station is a caltex and their site specifically says that the higher octane has more and better additives, basically trying to convince you to pay the higher price.
I only ever use 91 in my boat.
but when that site refers to the federal government rules are they US or Aussie rules.

Screenshot from my 2017 model G2 operators guide.
Whilst they stop short of bluntly saying don't use ethanol fuels, they pretty much imply it don't they?
Kind of like saying put it in if you have no other choice and don't blame us when it goes pair shaped.

You deserved a cracking fish after the effort you put in. Well done on sharing your method too.

Nice feed and report. You'd have to be happy with that.
