chef gone fishin1

Hi brunswick bar is great in a south swell and ok in a se swell anything from the east or north and you can be in trouble . I live in byron and i cross the bar alot but this bar is a nasty bar it has a very tight river mouth and a bommie on the nth seaction to keep you on your toes.Also plenty of surfers to get in the way. If you have access to the internet go to coastal watch and type in bruswick heads and have a look . If you get up early and watch it live you can see the locals going out . Low tide is big no no with any swell. Yes the macks will still be around when you come up in march plenty of cobia as well , some say its prime time in march. Any Q s send me a pm and we can have a chat.

Ok guys doing some work on my haines and Im looking at putting a pod on my boat but i am a little lost as to what is best a glass pod or an aluminium pod for a glass boat.Will it affect its performance or can it damage the transom from the lack of flex from the aluminium pod. I have got plenty of quotes at the moment but i have no made up my mind yet so i have turned to the forum for help cheers guys
