pic pic pic!!!

haahahahah good job adzzy... a brilliant alternative to reading magazines! put some shelves on the side walls to put your jigs/lures etc... love it!

Good job on the jackets brother... the more you catch, the better for everyone else lol... shame about your botany trip.. that's fishing huh... im always worried when i fish with a first timer and they dont land anything... im scared they'll hate it after that lol... tight lines brother

Very impressive...! Congrats to all involved..! Looks brilliant!!

Ryan, are you talking about Man U vs Liverpool on the 19th March 2009 AT OLD TRAFFORD when Man U was up 1-0 and then got FLOGGED 4-1??? hell yeh!! 4-1 baby... that was the happiest moment of my life!! Slayer666, are you reading this post??? lol

Well said brother... to hell with man u Wannafish and Wantingaboat, you should be banned from fishing for a month for comments like that I hope Messi can find a way out during the final... he was shut down HARD against chelsea... go Barca!!

wat are your thoughts fellas??? handball or not (taking into account he had his back turned)?? Chelsea must be FREAKEN SPEWIN wat do you reckon will happen to Drogba after that satanic possession at the end??? However, Ovrebo did make some ridiculous calls i reckon..

Top report to open ur account with brother! Well done... Hope to read many more of ur reports like that!! cheers Kiro

holy crap

top report mate! great read... well done on the kings!!

better than being at work brother... nice work on the flatties... good on you for releasing the legal ones also... cheers

pm sent 5Star! also check out Slinky's article on squidding... sorry didnt know how to post the actual link, so just cut and pasted the website below... http://www.fishraider.com.au/fishing-artic...ney-harbour.php cheers kiro

thanks for the input fellas... dicko - the runs were quick... they were long runs, and ripping line off my reel... the last run was the one that stunned me... with a tight drag and for it to pull that much line off, i knew it was a decent fish... just wouldnt have a clue what it was... the bait was taken before it had even dropped a metre down, so the fish was definately on the surface... i'll post a pic of the jighead, once i get it off my mates boat... cheers guys kiro

nice jew brother... at least your kinda guaranteed that your next jew will be a PB! well done mate kiro

Thanks for the replies fellas... the jighead is in my mates boat... i've called him and told him to keep it for me.. i'll take a snap of it and post it soon... King slayer - nah it wasnt a squidgy mate.. never tried those actually... lol bastik - thanks for your comment..! i was still wondering wat it was till i read your post.. Timmy - looking forward to it brother... will pop in and see you soon! davemmm - thanks for the tip mate...! i've convinced myself it was a ray! actually feel better lol! thanks again raiders... tight lines! kiro

sorry fellas, probably a bad choice of wording... not straightend my hook, as in the hook went 180 degrees.... the bend in the hook was bent back, so the tip of the barb was kinda pointing towards the chunky lead bit... get me?? lol anyways, it mangled my hook! 5Star - im not too sure of the exact location. I dont fish the hacking much.. i'll ask my mate and get back to you as he is a local... cheers

hey raiders... hit the hacking with my fishing buddy the other week... we were after some livies, so my mate dropped down a bait jig... the rod buckles over, and he's fighting a fish for about 5 mins.. suprisingly, he pulls up a 33cm snapper! cheering... at that time, i was flicking around a 5 inch jerk shad... heaps of little pickers, who kept nibbling on the plastic, so i started getting annoyed at wasting my plastics, so i took the jerk shad off my jighead... i couldnt be bothered taking the jighead off and re-rigging, so i just put a piece of striped tuna bait on the jighead and dropped it... it hadent even dropped a metre yet, and line is ripping off my reel, as it was still in free-spool. I flick it over, and line is still being peeled... slowly slowly i tighten the drag and play the fish as best i could... i eventually tightned the drag to nearly maximum , and i swear to god i was still loosing line... and very rapidly... the 150m of 10lb braid had a couple of wraps around the spool left, and i can clearly see all the backing... the fish stops running, and i start to slowly bring in the fish, pulling the rod in, then winding etc... then the damn fish spits.. i bring in my line, to find its bent back the bloody hook on the jighead.. i had the 10lb nitlon braid tied to a 12lb nitlon leader with a blood knot, and the leader tied to a snap clip with an improved clinch knot, and the jighead attached to the snap clip. i was using a daiwa sol 2500 reel... its doing my head in badly... im dying to know what it was... i cancelled out the possibility of a kingy, as kingies tend to go straight down when hooked... there was barely a bend in my rod. this fish swam straight out... never caught a jewie before...??? can they pull that hard??? to my understanding, the max drag on a sol 2500 is 7kg... my drag wasnt too far off that... i doubt it would have been any kind of shark as surely the teeth would have sliced the leader real quick... somebody please put me out of my misery and tell me what it was??? i didnt want to take the stupid fish home, i would have been more than happy to let it go.. i just wanted to see what it was... help! other than that, we got a few pike, small snapper, heaps of yakkas and a big slimie.. cheers guys kiro

Hey brother... nice report! everybody else pretty much summed it up regarding the kings...! just gotta try everything you got in your tackle box/bait buckets till they decide to bite.. It was a pleasure seeing you catch your first kingy..! Handled it beautifully!! Well done.. Take it easy buddy... kiro

pm sent.. cheers kiro
