Sharky

Guess who's back? Back again...... Good to hear buddy I look forward to a catching up over a few beers.

Well done mate, most tailor caught from Tom Uglys Bridge are less than 20 cm. The are great fun when they are on the bite.

Great report well done raiders.

Happy Birthday gents all the best. Kikila where have you been mate?

Hey mate the Milperra road bridge can produce some nice fish. The current screams through so you should stick to the tide changes. There bream, ep's flathead and some soapies have been tacken there with the occasional bigger jewies pass by also. Both sides fish well but there is a deep on the eastern side the drops to about 35 feet from memory. Lambeth park is worth a shot also. Good Luck.

Well done Sammy on 1000 posts

I had the same thing in my dollies from tuesday. Im still trying to find a plastic that will match them. So frustrating.

Dam Simon you are getting close. I should have come down but I was wrecked after work. I will be there next time for sure.

Nice one Grant. I can just see it now, "NO HONEY!!!! I want to take the kids to daycare.

Nice one mate those kings go down a treat.

Congrats people

I recently purchased some 10 lb braid that was pricey. Brian and I did some tests and it broke at a whopping 18kgs. I cant remeber the name something pro braid I have the pack at home and I will update this post when I get home.

You %%%%% I was going to keep that one to myself Ok Christopher you seem to have forgotten about a certain person putting the catchbag over the side and not tieing it off to the bollard. The first time most people learn there lesson (Especially when the bag contained the whole days catch) But 3 yes people 3 times and 3 fishbags full of the days catch have been shark food on at least 3 seperate outings that I know about. Now onto the dumb things I have done. Other than the infamous rigging the reel on upsidown episode. I had started a new job and I work about 200 meters from the harbour Bridge I decided to come to work 2 hours early and I had some funny looks as I walked down the road with a backpack and a rod all the while in a business suit. Anyway to cut a long story short I went back to the gallery and my boss and his partner start pissing themselves laughing. I was none the wiser but there was a huge whole in the back of my suit pants. I realised that my fishing knife that was unsheafed in the bottom of my bag had cut through it and was poking out about 3 inches. My suit was ruined and the Owners were convinced that I had hooked myself in the arse while casting. They still wont believe me when I tell them it was the knife. They like to tell the story to all my clients also. A very long story cut short. I was loading up a very special rod to show how strong it was and as I pulled down as hard as I could Ben pulled up as hard as he could. (They really go POP!!!!) Decided it was a good idea to go swimming in botany bay in the middle of winter when out fishing on Brians boat. Apparently when I jumped in as soon as my toes touched the water my whole body turned a purple/Red colour and the guys thought it was the second coming because I was basically walking on water trying to get back in the boat. Not only where they pissing themselves at the fact I looked like a human ribeena berry but I forgot there was a ladder at the back of the boat and I was trying to get over to portside. Sashimin bonito eyeball, dont ask but if you must try it cut off the retina it tends to get caught on things on its way down. Brians boat and its spring the fishing was dead slow and we were talking about how fun it would be to rip around the bay on a ski tube when someone suggested that the esky lid would make a perfect subsitute. One very red bruised ribcage and what a swear felt like a broken jaw I gave up on the idea. Im sure other raiders will remind me of fishing related screwups. Ow and before I forget I gave Brian and his wife Teri food poisening last time they came around for a BBQ Donna? Stewy? Chris? I hope I didnt poisen you guys also. actually Chris I take that back

Thats a great feed there mate

Great fish mate well done

I found this on a forum in the states. Im not at home yet but the replys in the thread varified all of them. Give it a go.(Not the emergency one however ) THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELL PHONE COULD DO. There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it: FIRST Subject: Emergency The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out. SECOND Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk). Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone!" THIRD Subject: Hidden Battery Power Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time. (I have entered the access # in cell phone directory.) FOURTH How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone? To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't resell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

The weather was perfect for a spin mate at least you got out on the water and had a crack and you didnt get a dounut

GPS should tell you mate I wouldnt go that far out without one .

Hey mate. I love the Nilsmaster range of lures. Redhead is my favourite colour and I have had great success on the 15cm ones. Pilchard works a treat also. For sps I love sunami paddle tail and 2 seasons ago they were the most productive for casting at the washline and you can troll them also. This year it has been 5 inch jerkbaits by Berkley and yum do a great shad in the purple colour. Good Luck

Hi Raiders Im off to the hunter valley for the weekend and I thought I would spend some time at the fresh water fishing dam I heard is up that way. It is set up like a fishing park and you use pellets as bait I have no Idea where it is so I was wondering if any raiders could point me in the right direction.

Hoping to go for a quick jewie flick on friday night, working on saturday night and then I have 3 days off

Tide, bait, and same spot makes sence, for that tide to be the same, the moonfase would have to be the same. If moon has so much to do with jewie captures why are so many caght in the day??? Jewfish are creatures of habit they are big and need to eat or be eaten. A place where they can use minimal energy to get a feed is where they will be. Dropoffs, eddies, bridge pilons, somewhere baitfish just get swept past with the current. When a jewie gets over 20kg they are over 12 years old they get to know the systems they live in. When someone like no no no goes fishing the amount he gets a good idea where fish will be holding.

Ive never heard of that happening before LOL it could be a collectors item Put it on ebau you never know your luck.

I dont think it makes a difference. I believe it comes from people catching a fish on a certain moon fase and only fishing for that species during that specific time and fase, thus the belief that it is the time fish are activly hunting. I also believe that when moon fase devoties fish more confidently when fishing a favourable moon . Livebait rather than dead, keeping fresh bait on the hook or perhaps putting more action into a soft plastic presentation. Myself I would take a tide-change around dawn or dusk over a full moon night. But in saying that you cant catch jewies without a line in the water.

I can just see the newpapers on Thursday the headline will be 10 METER REAL LIFE JAWS SPOTTED.
