  1. Theres a good doco on billfish on ABC's iView at the moment. Google "iview" and look in the documentaries section.

    At the end they find a Sailfish nursery and film the juveniles.

    Yeah the doco is called "SuperFish" i think.. The juvenile billfish they show on the doco, doesnt look like the fish being ID'd here but.

  2. I was talking to a bloke in a tackle store the other day and he told me Penn are now made in China, as oppose to the US... just wondering how long ago the switch was made and whether i'll really notice the difference in quality of a US built Spinfisher as oppose to the Chinese made one.

    Also.. Baitrunner vs Spinfisher... what's your preference ?

    Thanks!

  5. LOL... the other day, i was watching Master Chef with my sister and they had a 'name the fish' challenge. I was being all cocky and smashing all the fish names (they were all very easy), until fish 5.... my sister said "Salmon" and I said "Trout".... i looked like an idiot ;)

  6. Yeh always good fun to watch anyway. Rule of thumb - when i travel, the rod comes with (even if i'm just going to a mates place :biggrin2: ) I was swimming at Terrigal a few weeks ago and about 10 meters from me, a small school of what i beleived to be salmon began busting up on the surface. Was awesome while it lasted !

    Next time mate, next time...

  7. Thanks boys....and well done Iceman....

    We are heading to Nambucca Heads in the morning for two weeks....look out fish eye's comin to get ya!!!!!

    Was there before xmas, plenty of fish around - but they were all under sized. Probably cause im not that good at fishing.... Fishing near the "V" wall in the river, hooked up with a big stingray on 10lb line and having never caught anything over 40cm, i was so excited that i tried to slow it down with spool and ...... :mad3: It was taking my out to sea! and it probably wouldve ran off with the all my line. :05:

    Sometimes there are good fish under the board walk. I was there the first day and silly me forgot to pack the lure bag and i was distraught. By the time express post got them up there, the fish were gone.

    Watch out for the drunks though, my mum was in the car as we were packing the gear up and a bunch of drunks began jumping on the bonnet.

  8. Fitness/Gym Junkie = iFitness

    Navigation = TomTom App (Will only work with iPhone cause it has a built in GPS, unless you have a TomTom car kit thing). I suggest you be certain it will work first as it costs like $80. There are a few cheaper competitors out there too

    BAC = AlcoholCalc - only an estimate but may come in handy after a few :beersmile:

    Transit Sydney and Day Tides are both FREE!! and are great
