You're outfit also looks a little on the light side? a nervous battle?
Yeah mate, got him on a barra classic 120 10 foot diver... Nitro Magnum Butt and a Daiwa Tierra spooled with 10lb... some awesome runs and shakes, got more nervous the closer he got actually, lol...

Hey mate,
If you could send me some photos I just read the post, very interested, if you can post up some pics I'll be in contact...
Cheers
Ben

I wish I had taken a photo... But a few years ago I caught a flattie on a prawn, it was the size of my index finger, I couldn't work out why my 'bait' was moving while I was retrieving after not getting any bites...
Good report, nice fish...
Cheers
Ben

Hahaha...
I am a Sharky fan myself, so really, I got no grounds to talk about other teams this year, look at the table...
However, if there are two teams that I love to hate, its Manly and the Bulldogs...
Needless to say, love the refs work...
Last two weeks have been great apart from the sharks going from bad to worse.
Keep it up
Cheers

Hey All,
I used to have a page of all fish species and their trophy sizes, I have lost it and can't find it, and I can't remember where I found it, if anyone would know where to look or has it themselves and could share would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

If only I had of seen this post a few weeks or a couple of months ago you woulda had your 2...
All the best mate...
Will be looking at going early 2010 on similar trip...
All the best mate, can't wait to see some pics...
What gear are you taking? I would imagine sh*tloads as when we went up north (landbased) we took around 5k worth of gear alone... So to be doing what your doing just curious so I know how much more to stock up on What an excuse to buy more gear
Cheers
Ben

You wont have any dramas mate...
When we went up North I had about 5 times that...
Should be sweet...

Ben i didn't know it was you that hooked that whale, lol.
Same spot i hooked the Mako at........
Mate have you got a big enough flyer for the toothie? I got an 11inch re-inforced and i have an attachment so it hooks onto my cliff gaff as well.
Send me a PM for your next attempt if you want and ill do my best to come down and help out.
Yeah mate...
Pete was in stitches...
I was secretly hoping the whales had spooked something big and took my livie and ran... but that was all a fantasy...
No worries when I know when I'm having a crack I'll let ya know...
Cheers
Ben

If he's as big as you say how on earth are you gonna land the bugger!?
Taking the 80 instead of the 50... Never know?
If not I'm taking a boat next time!!
Cheers
Ben

G'day all...
To start with, it was definately a shark... because the dorsal fin was out of the water just as he was coming in for the salmon...
I was using Tiagra 50W running 24kg tortue and 600lb wire trace!! Tiagra was locked up!! If I had a board with me I reckon he woulda towed me...
A few months ago now I hooked up to a whale, the proof:
I tell you when locked up this shark made the whales like nothing...
If anyone is gonna go down let me know... because round 2 will be on very shortly...
Might give it a crack over the next week...
Cheers
Ben

Hey all...
Long time no post...
Just thought I would let anyone know that is interested, that there is an absolute monster shark cruising the Georges River...
I went for a little flick with a couple of old TAFE mates and decided to take the shark gear for some fun... Well this shark absolutely smashed me...
I've seen some absolute monster sharks along the coast and interstate and I have hooked some big ones too...
But this... this was something else...
Anyone interested just thought I would give a shout out...
Was fishing between alfords point and picnic point...
And it LOVES dead Salmon!!
Cheers

G'day All...
As some of you may be aware, last week I posted something, which obviously offended some.
The topic was in relation to sharks and fishing for them, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to all mods, members and guests as I realise I should not have posted it on the site at all. This is a family-orientated site and what I said was uncalled for.
The last few weeks everytime I have gone for a fish or a look there has been someone there just blatenly getting in the way and causing havoc, and I vented this frustration, and for that I would like to say sorry.
To anyone who read, I did not mean to offend anyone, as I don't think I mentioned any names I was just frustrated and posted without thinking.
Once again truly sorry and hope this can be left behind as fishraider and its members move forwards...
Cheers
Ben

nah, there crap.
every couple of years you look at em and say "they cant be that bad" and take some home on a desperate day. and when you cook them up you say"these things really are crap" and vow never again.
but feel free everyone,take home as many as you want.
Couldn't have put it better myself...
Cheers
Ben

Hahaha its gotta be a sign...
YEAR OF THE SHARK!!

r u thinking of going after the bull shark that attack the navy diver?
Nah mate,
I am gonna get his mummy and daddy for letting him do that
Just a bit curious as I got some big chunks in the freezer and not sure whether or not the dogs could have them...
Cheers
Ben

G'day all...
Just a quickie...
Anybody know whether it is safe for animals to eat sharks? Like if I was to cut some steaks up for the dogs will they be alright or will the mercury affect them the same as us humans?
Cheers
Ben

As much as I hate to say this...
I think that the Poms will win...
I actually think it will be a clean sweep...
Hope I'm wrong... but the Aussies can't even beat the kiwis in one day, how do we beat the poms over 5?
Cheers
Ben

Don't look as though they have a flat head....
I would go with mullet as well...
Just eating scraps off the boat...
Cheers

G'day all...
Was just wondering if anyone knew anywhere in particular salmon may be particularly thick...

Thanks everyone for your kind comments...
Yeah it was awesome fun on the 10lb gear, heart was in the mouth a few times...
Persistance is definately the name of the game with jewies... But we're going back tonight, see if we can make it 4 nights in a row...
JEW FEVER HAS SET IN...
Cheers Ben
P.S Please stop PMing me regarding the spot I caught this, nobody will get a response, it has taken many many many hours of hit and miss and trials to find this landbased spot, I will not be trading spots for boat spots etc... Thanks for your understanding, but you never know, may take ya there one night
Cheers again
Ben
