jamie s where you been catching the bronzies at cronulla?

mate it depends are you talking about the depot beach launch or north durras or south durras launch depot beach is a tough option in any condition and is at most recommended for zodiacs north durras boat ramp has long since seen its best days and is now more a clay track than a boat ramp south durras is a far better ramp leading down from a high quality caravan park it is still relatively well maintained however all of this may be useless as when i spoke to mates down there and when i was there bout 8 months ago the lake was closed. any other questions feel free to give us a holla as im down there generally 2-3 times a year a nice spot very quiet for 11 months of the year.

fin nor 50lb spin jig stick shimano spheros 8 or 12 thousand 50lb tuna terror or platypus jig braid

wanna fish ios right 130lb is the line class the drag on it is 36kg but as someone has already said good luck holding onto it with that pressure on it rod wise id be looking at atleast a tcurve gt at the minimum although i am seeing and liking some of the xzoga rods which can be landed here in aus for around 220 because of the exchange rate

most of what it will be throwing is things like rebel poppers and rebel crawlers and smaller r2s bubble pops and baby vibs it needs to be fairly stiff as even with the 2lb line i want the abbility to glide the fish out of snages rather than the medalist which has way to much give its interesting that u bring that up iceman its something ive been considering the other thing im looking at is going for something heavier so thats what hes running it on im considering the 1-2 kg nitro as an option but 500 for my second string rod well i dunno but i am considering using a 2-4kg starlo stick as my second choice option just unsure how it would match up to a 1000 luvias or 1000 twinpower arc finesse which is what ill run on it

the bottom red one is one of my favoruite ones for bream on flats where as the second one is one of my favourite colourz in the red lure but have no exp with the bigger 2

sorry i figured most people would click a 1-2 or 1-3kg stick is gonna be a bream gear yes the stradic is a lot cheaper and im looking at it as an option however im leaning toward the arc finesse twinpower as it is designed for fishing lines such as 2lb fluro and 4lb varivas casting and the supreme is to soft i want something that is fairly stiff preferably without having to go for a custom built ian miller or the like ive at the presnet got 1-3 and 2-4 kg sticks coming out my ears but i need sumthing extremely stiff in that range and unfortunately custom built or bright orange carrot stick seem the go

what no body has an oppinion on what gear to look at when theres a budget of 1500 on the table

there is now a new front runner that isnt gonna set me back 900 for the reel that being the twinpower ar-c finesse 1000 any thoughts

OK guys well here is the set of questions I am in need of advice on: An extremely stiff 1-2kg or 1-3kg rod it needs to be extremely stiff and preferably between 6'-6'6" at the moment i am looking at the carrot sticks in the 2-6lb but it is fairly thick for such a light rod money is not so much an issue will look at spending up to 350 dollars i am greatly of the opinion buy good buy once the next question is i am looking for a small spooled ultra finesse reel i am currently looking at daiwa steez 2004 but am open to suggestions i will be running 2lb fluorocarbon straight through any other idea on the reels as a guide I'm working off a reel that holds less than 120m of 4lb finally your top 3 lures atm this question is more just of curiosity and as a bit of a question of opinion my top 3 would be rebel crawler in orange and green bass days crystal popper in the crystal colour rmg scorpion 35 in black and silver with red stripes anyway guys opinions away

hey man looks like a really nice combo man is it the stradic normal or the new c14 and how much were u looking at for the saltist
