ive got one of those R2S live squids at home and i dont think there are made to be trolled from memory its got a big lead weight in it and i think they are just made for jigging up and down not trolled ive still yet to try mine out might take it out this weekend

what downrigger are you using are you using wire or braid for the cable little scary having the cable snap on you i always slowly lower my bombs i see some ppl just open the break fully up and just drop the bomb down im always worried its going to rip off the downrigger so i always go slow nice work on the kings hopefully i run into some more this weekend

cheers lads yeh im sure a few will be had tonight hopefully followed by a few fish this weekend

those beers are making me thirsty never tried them before how do they go down

yeh it was quite the day on the way over the box head there was a whale and calf doing some jumps just out of the front on palmy headland and just outfront of lion island we had dolpins swim by didnt see any noahs but im sure they where there every time i connected to a sambo it felt like i was onto a kingie forgot how fun fishing can be when using really light gear i need to go and get some new slices this week going to replace all the trebles on them with some new owner trebles it was heart breaking to be fighting a good size fish only to have the lure come out of its mouth and there was another first for the day i got bitten on the finger by a little cuttle fish i had him on the DR and at the end of the day i was releasing him and he grabbed my finger with his tentacles and gave me a little nip ha great day on the water

i was surprised how long they stuck around for we got there at like 8am and left at around 11 to check out box head on the return they were still there i had to drive past and not look at them otherwise i would of gone back i ended up dropping my bro off and went and chased kings for the rest of the arvo was a great day out

plan for the day was to take my bro and his mate to box head for a surf then catch up with Jewiehaven for some kings halfway across the heads run into a massive school of sambos i took it upon myself to call off there surf and try to catch some sambos i had rods in the boat but no lures for sambos i had 1 metal slice so we took turns throwing it out i connected to some monsters but the hook wasnt setting got 1 solid one aboard sadly my brother ended up loosing the only slice i had in the boat as seen in the "snapp" video at first i thought it must of been a big sambo that did it untill i watched the video of him and i see him doing the drag up 3 times on 8lb line no wonder it snapped also caught a heap of chompers around the salmon was good fun heres some videos Boil Ups Results

i have just finished up mods on the boat to make it legal to start heading offshore i have some great offshore flattty marks and the plan is to go and give them a working whats the best time to go and fish for them whats the best rigs to use? should i just be using a paternoster with a sinker to keep the rig on the bottom with 2-3 droppers? any tips,advice would be great cheers in advance

mate i got the garmin 420s its a chartplotter/fish finder when i have it just on fish finder i think its quite similar to the 400c a youtube video clip i made for another raider a while back showing off some of its featuresi think there a great little unit hasn't let me down yet im sure the 400c would do the same for u

Greg if you ever need a butler on your boat when you go fishing let me be the first to put my hand up i pour a great beer

thanks guys heres a pic i found on the net of one and its looks the same nice work

caught at west head on a bait jigg not the vibe in the background

leather work boots are edible question is would you eat a leather boot

thats just crazy the closest ive ever come to some thing like that is a big school of yakkas ha

or try to use the wind to your advantage find a location when you are casting with the wind resulting in longer casts longer casts = more ground covered

yeh they work great i have caught flattys at 3am pitch black on small squidgys i prefer grubs that have alot of tail vibration and use some scent

the best way to make sure you get all the photos off your cards is to NOT use the crappy software that comes with your camera best to browse to the folder via my computer and copy the entire contents of your card to your computer then go threw and delete what you dont need and if you do delete your card by accident there is software to recover the lost data

Nope they will die they need fresh circulating water to survive

Can I also be added it's a toss up between a repair and a replace cheers
