  2. Hey Raiders

    Been a member now for a few years and love this site because I have learnt so much form fellow raiders. However, there is one thing I am still yet to do and that is to get onto a king fish - I haven't even had the chance to lose one yet. I have my own boat and go out most weekends in Botany Bay. I have trawled, I have burlied I have even prayed :-) But I am yet to catch a king fish.

    If One of the mentors woukld be kind enough to help me out on a session - on my boat or theirs I would be happy to pay for bait fuel; etc....I just want to bring home a dream fish....or a rat at 65.5 cm.

    Thanks Raiders

  4. G'day Raiders,

    I have been fishing the bay for the last three years with not a great deal of luck. This summer I am keen to hit the Harbour...But Parking puts me off. Should I persist or try for better hunting grounds. Raiders, which is better Sydney Harbour or Botany Bay. I am determined to bag my first Kingie this year!!!

    Hopefully this weekends weather if good

  6. G'day Anthony,

    Its between the runway and the Novatel. It's approx 100 meters past the runway and 100 metres towards the Novatel. Its not so much a hole its a drop off from 5 to 8 meters. The 8 meter depth starts to rise about 500 or 600 meters off the shore in fornt of or just past the Novatel.

    Mate, next time we go out I will show you where it is. It is hard to find as the initial drop off is quite subtle.

  7. G'day Raiders, my six year old daughter bought me a telescopic rod from the $5 Fathers day stall at school. As soon as it came out of the packet my two year soon claimed it. He kept saying "boot...boot" meaning boat. Unfortunately we didn't have time due to a family brunch (where I am typing thisî„…). So we walked down to the Cooks River to flick SPs and Henry (2 year old) could stick his new rod in the water... He doesnt get fishing yetî—. It was beautiful on the jetty, the kids were having ball and my 6 year old daughter was even casting... Not bad. Anyway we flicked plastics with not much luck. The kids loved it... Even ch7 news came and filmed us for their fathers day report!!! Unfortunately just after they left I picked up this 50 plus cm flattie! Possibly the biggest fish I have ever caught and my first on SPs (a 2in pumpkin seed minnow).

    Happy Fathers day raiders! 3a68fec4-dc43-badb.jpg
