  1. Penguin- we were out there on Easter Monday- down rigging Squid, we got smoked a few times. One King took us under the rocks so far- that my braid was frayed 5 metres past the 2m leader.

  2. How do you rig and work these octopus lures?

    (line)--------------(float)O(sinker)o(swivel)<>(line)---------------------------------(lure)+++

    cast out and retrive, works like a popper. On the stall between retrives- the octopus legs flair out and the bonnies hit.

  3. I was there Monday 4th and tuesday 5th- at Swansea caravan park.

    We fished out at Lake Maq- both days. My bro hooked and landed 92cm jew on the Sunday before I arrived.

    Monday couldnt catch cold.

    Tuesday we got 3 flatties, on soft plastics on 3inch Gulps. Anything that has a moving tail on it, seems to work better than anything else. We worked very hard to get them.

    We just do drifts across the lake- as there was nothing consistent.

    Bread will work on the flats at sunset across the flats. Just find a deep patch and you can have fun without the boat atleast.

    We had fresh squid out also, but no Kings.

  4. It's a saltwater fly rod, so all good on the corrosion part. It's probably too stiff, but hey, if it catches fish...

    I'm yet to try it off the rocks using the side cast.

    The flatties are still there, I suspect deeper water and you'd have to donk them on the head for a strike.

    I think the burner is up at the van, but I've brought the smoker and chips back to Sydney with me. Oh well, next lot.

    Glad you threw back the big flatty- not many people would.
