Guest Reely Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Chriso, no worries, must have been the scales! Inaccurate. Sorry about that. Your Bungs mate hey? I know where your fish was caught! Is that the one you got on a live Bream? Or is that another one i'm thinking of? Could be completely wrong! Nice fish anyway. K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to someone who's been there 4 times and he said it's unbelievable fishing even from the shore although it's quite expensive. He said that everything there is monopolized, food.accommodation and the charters are expensive. There's a lot of shore based option though according to him. He suggested that NZ Bay of Plenty is a cheaper option. Nevertheless I'm keen to go and tackle down those hoodlums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ophet Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 footage of ned's beach in LHI http://youtube.com/watch?v=NgXP-zC0WoA That is AWESOME !!!! I would find it hard to eat a King after (maybe for only just a little while) hand feeding them from the beach like that. There are some HUGE fish amongst them, if only it was that easy to burley them up in Sydney.... I assume that fishing is banned from that beach, natural instincts would be to drop a popper to one of those suckers... I am guessing the tourists would not be so happpy Interesting the japanese writing on top of the YouTube window, I can't read Japanese but it probably reads "Stupid Aussies, letting fresh sushimi float by.."
