Cheers for all the information fellas.

Went out for a fish on Saturday with a few mates, the plan was to go out for kingies but it was pretty quiet. So we decided to head up into Greenwich for the first time ever to throw some plastics around. This 45cm bream was the end result The Bream was safely released to fight another day. I heard that bream grow 1 cm each year would that make this fish close to 40 years old??? Cheers Brenny.

Thanks Ben I will give that a go. Cheers Brenny

Hi, I have started making my own Timber lures, does anyone know where I could get bibs from??? I cant find anything. Cheers Brenny

Is there a practical like at pyrmont? chhhers

We are willing to put a fair bit of work to it hopefully not to much to the hull though. this is our first boat building project. What our the online auctions called? Cheers.

My mate and i want to do up a old hull as a little side project, does anyone know where we could get a old hull in half decent condition? Cheers Brent

Mate we used it for the first time on sat. not to keen to se it again. Make sure you take a long strong rope as you have to beach your boat then drag it up the side of the ramp on the sand. But it great fishing out there. Good luck mate!!!

That sounds awsome mate just got 4500 saltist with a samaki off shore still waiting to take her out. how did u find the saltist?

I want to use it for kings mainly in the harbor.but dont want to spend to much.

Anyone got any ideas?

g day dave.. well done on the jewie mate lets hope we can get some bigger ones around MH this year.. i was told that you wont get any yakkas when its blowin a westerly in the harbour.. thay hate the clean water. good luck for next time cheers vinni

i reckon it would have been another squid probaly one about the same size as the monster you got. try bringing the line up very slowly next time or baiting up your pilchard on a squid jig. You can get jigs that just have the small rods with the barbs on the end, they are made for baits. good luck next time

mate he took the livey and im surprised it was in the water for so long with out being picked at. i dropped another 5 livies and they all got destroyed. Although it could have been a strip bait by the time he got to it.

nice work mate! ive always fished sydney harbour for kings but there seems to be better reports on botany.. do u think there is more around there?

I suggest you rent the video land based addiction if you haven't seen it.. awesome movie and it will show you all the spots and what they can catch there. good luck

Got on the water today at around 5 was abit late because my mate didnt show up no worries just means there is more room on the boat and better chance of catching me one.. there were only a couple of boats out and they were all going outside. i got about 6 squid at the spit and decided to head back in middle harbour to drop some livies around bantry and the steps but only pickers destroying my good baits.. headed back around to seaforth where i heard there were a few boats having luck yesterday. Dropped one livey down and one strip bait not one touch for about 30 min when i was woken up by a screaming line.. fought for about 20 min before i saw colour as it closer to the boat i saw there was another king right next to it.. so i decided to wind up my other line to get it closer to the surface.. back to the other rod i got the fish in the boat with his mate right next to him all the way up before i could get that one out of the net the other line took off.. it was on! one in the boat and another screaming line.. didnt land this one but was a nice king maybe a touch bigger than the one in the boat.. The fish was 92 cm which was the boats new record. i suggest not going far the water is warmer in middle harbour and the tide was running out . Of course called my mate to tell him the news and boy was he pissed.. sorry there's no photo.. vinni it took me a while but i figured out how to get the picture from the phone to the computer. She was 7kg and 92cm . Good luck boys they are out there!
