  16. i just learned how to tie a common snell for its use as a sliding snell but i found there is an easier way to tie a snell which is on you tube i still am tieing commons snells though my question is does anyone use the easy method as the line finishes on top of the snell not under as the common snell does i worried about its strength really also does anyone know what the line strength percentage on snells ? thanks mike

  19. nice bag of fish there fellas good read too great post slinky first you worked the boat and now the keyboard for the report
  20. well im in the market for a rod in the 6-10kg range as i now have access to a boat the rods im looking at are ugly stick platinum 6-10 kg 1 pc at 120 live fibre 6-8 kg 1 pc at 179 a snapper raider 2 2 pc 6-8 kg at 159 and repala braid concept 8-15kg 2 pc at 279 kg range is higher but this rod is sensitive as now the problem is im worried that if i buy either the snapper raider 2 or braid concept as they are thin and sensitive the large snapper leads we will be using will over work the rods and then with a fish as load it will be worse as the other two are much thicker and dont over bend the rod i know the braid concept i much more fragile than the others and i think the snapper raider is carbon which would aslo make it fragile i walked out of the shop after 30 mins browsing and drive off as i could not decide and did not want to make any bad call and get something i may regret any one used these rods particularly the live fibre rod or any better recommendations im looking to chase kings ,dollies the good fighting fish thanks mike
  21. i think but im not sure that roberta was snelling them when she was at the hawkesbury river with some other raiders not to long ago and she said snelling them is the way to go maybe they'll chime in
  22. what a snapper did you gets its weight or length
  23. great report top effort on the king on 10lb gear did you chase after it with the boat while fighting just wondering
