  1. g'day, planning a trip to the central coats over easter, was wondering if an locals or people who have fished there recently had any help with where fish are biting, we have a boat aswell. cheers
  2. hahahahahahahahahaaha GOLD! i was expecting to pay atleast 2K
  3. hahahaha i realise that now, i was just so shocked to catch it that i totally disregarded it and thought i MAY have been a mangrove jack, which was way off the mark hahahahahaha,
  4. hey peters what species is that flatty???
  5. on a good overhead reel matched with a good general purpose rod for a boat and casting?? any estimates or links will be appreciated. the combo would be used for mostly jewies and other "larger" fish. cheers, phil
  6. play off either 10.3 or 10.5 and play alot in school holidays but not really through school terms
  7. im deadset, ive never caught a fish like it, i knew it was either a coral trout or a mangrove jack, it had the blue spots like a juvey snapper and a v tail, i doubted it was a coral trout but ever picture ive seen of it is identical to my fish. make your own assumptions but im sure it was a coral trout.
  8. thanks mate, no sorry i didnt get a pic but i originally doubted i would catch a coral trout so i figured maybe it was a mangrove jack, now i've narrowed it down to maybe a coral cod also, but the blue markings were less apparent then on alot of coral cod pictures ive seen, are coral cod as thick as coral trout because it was really thick for its size.
  9. hi all, yesterday at around 1130 i was fishing around 50 metres from a point directly opposite the patonga boat ramp, i was using chicken gut and thought i had a snag, i reeled it in with almost no fight and i caght a coral trout, only small about 20 odd cms but still a great surprise, i would never have ever expected or targeted coral trout at patonga, has anybody else seen coral trout in patonga or surrounding areas??
  10. for a general boat license u have to be 16, and for a boat license your boat has to be capable of over ten knots
  11. hey all, i was just wondering how many raiders have aquariums and what species of fish you keep? and what experiances you have had with other species of fish?, myself i only have a few marron and small native guppies in my fish tank currently.
  12. thanks roberta, much appreciated.
  13. caught in 1933, over 5,000 pounds and over 20 feet wide. do you think this is real or fake??? i think its real
