tomorrow I might post some maps of where the jewfish holes are...............

X marks the spot or in this case a heart and don't say I never look after you fellas

Thanks Luc I was using an old battered Squidgee wriggler that was found on the floor of the garage in gold and black 65mm and a 1/12 jighead heheheheheh My sportfishing equipment was 10lb braid and a 12lb fluorocarbon leader able to pole any EP on the planet The location was the island opposite the Angle Park boatramp - if anyone wants to know I can supply a google map with a big red x on it

Thanks Col No way we don't eat anything from there even though they look ok! mrsswordfisherman

um where did I say I haven't caught a jewfish?? I should have said it is mighty boring waiting to catch one. kingfisher84 I never get defeated by the way thanks for the positive comment sam bros

A nice afternoon so we decided to hook up the poly and go to Chippo. Apart from the usual pests on their jet skis deliberately driving maniacally in the 8 knot zones we enjoyed the arvo. Swordie has a habit of taking my gear and using it. I normally get given some other rod of his and I insisted that I be given my gear. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw my rods and reels all ready for me to use. Very confident using my very OWN custom made rods and favourite reels I was soon onto the fish. About 3 casts in I started my attack. Stewy yells "slow down the retrieve and let it hit the bottom" and I responded with " I'm On" and "shut up " I pulled in a lovely healthy looking EP that was a new PB for me. I said to swordie "get the net stupid (oops Stewy) and don't miss it!!!!!" and after 3 woeful attempts at trying to knock my PB off the line he finally netted it. Swordie caught 2 tiddlers and a flathead that was really destined for neonatal ICU. I continued to pole more huge EP's. Stewy started rummaging around looking for the same lure as I had and casting into my splashmarks. So he then decided that he would move on now from the hot bite of EP's and take me to the jewie hole. What a waste of time that jewfishing is jewfishing is for losers I turned around and saw black sky and lightning and we made a run for it just getting back and into the car with boat on trailer before it started pouring

If you spend a lot of time on fishraider each day why not become a moderator? http://www.fishraider.com.au/Invision/index.php?showtopic=38709 Check out the link above Our site is becoming very large and active and it takes a lot of time and effort to moderate it. Our mod team does a great job but we all have jobs and commitments and do this voluntarily. You can help by taking on one area of the forum to read posts and moderate. It may be that the section only gets a few posts daily as opposed to Fishing Reports, Boating etc If you would like to give us a hand please pm me directly so we can have a chat. mrsswordfisherman aka Donna

They are a sponsor of fishraider and give the prize for our fish of the month Send a pm to Marc username is Berkley Australia

Thanks Andrew, that is a great help. Is there anyone else who would like to take a group and facilitate? You will have 10 raiders and spend an hour or two with them teaching and instructing. I will give you a lesson plan of what is to be covered. If you think you are a fair communicator and knowledgeable about the subject then pm me please:) It is fun and you get to know new raiders. We need people to do other jobs on the day - catering crew etc I will be posting up closer to the event what we need exactly

We have spent hours sorting out the records section Everyone who has a validated fishraider record has a badge on their signature. Those that have 5 or 6 in a category (lure, bait, fly) will have one badge that says "Multi Record Holder" Blue is a bait capture and green is a lure and yellow for fly. If anyone notices an error or if you believe you have a badge missing or incorrect please send me a pm.

Gorgeous little man! mrsswordfisherman
