Hi, looking for crew to come along on Saturday, fishing on a game boat out of Wollongong. Shoot me a msg for further info. steve

I'll tell em, definitely not going to fight about it, very unlikely to actually kick the bucket in. If it seems they can be educated I'll try and educate. But then I tell people to take their crap or put it in bin when they leave their rubbish everywhere at the park. It feels better to do something than nothing. Why will they most likely be caught? How many undersized fish have you caught since you last had a visit from fisheries?

Inshore flares man, just saying if you're isolated they might be worth having
-
Dunno, but if you're buggered on the far side of st George's basin on Tuesday afternoon in July they might be handy. Middle harbour on Sunday in January not so much

I reckon it's incredibly liberating to leave the esky at home. Takes away the pressure to bring home dinner. Dropped fish aren't as bad and so on Or even better to catch as much as you need, 3 lizards is all we'll eat, and continue with no intention of keeping any more. the old Victorians are a strange lot, determined to max out at every opportunity and taking the freezer and generator o interstate trips!

Nothing wrong with a small Christmas tree or a 3 inch skirt with a soft bead in the head either

More hardener, It helps leave them in the sun for a couple of days before you polish them if you can get some scales ($10 eBay) to measure your mixture to .1 of a gram

Yeah, I old braid or rigging floss.

Cool, Are you glueing or tying your skirts on?

You should be able to predict the angle landline will have on the issue -
Good luck Steve, bet you can't go 20 minutes without hearing "what temperature you got there?"

Where, spit bridge to Roseville ish launch tunks park or Roseville what, kings or the pelagic of the month depending on the season or other species. gear, if it's in the open 4 pound and some patience, if it's amongst the poles and moorings much heavier plus some luck. its flat flat in most conditions get out there and explore!

Not much for me to report today, a few squid, BUT, if you're thinking of hitting the harbour in the next couple of days, middle harbour is where it will happen, the sounder was looking like it was in demo mode! bait is stacked and big arches all around, just not interesting in what I could offer today. Had 1 shot but missed it. its a shitty photo but I could've taken 20 more just like it
-
I'd still rig it!
-
I've learnt, the less gear you take the more you catch. Dont take 12 rods trip over them all day, dont put a 7th lure into the spread on a jig stick
-
I don't need to try it, there's often 4 or 5 or 6 people already giving it a go. Like last night. "how is tonight, getting a couple?" "nah nothin" "mmm" "yeah this place used to be good " well maybe if you shut down the ^%#}{] disco you might be a chance
-
So it's well documented that squid and fish like to hang around bridges and pontoons with a bit of lighting, so if 4 or 5 or 6 people stand on a wharf with industrial level head lights and turn them on turn them off, strobe them, point them in the water at their feet, scan them over the water at warp speed and aim then at every hint of a splash, will that turn the fish on and on and get them biting?????
-
Up to 8 trawlers doing laps of the mouth of the Hawkes is normal, they do it 5 days a week and give it a rest on the weekend cos they care for the fishery. Or maybe because they're not allowed . oh good fishing too!
-
Bunnings you will find many things in many places on your lure making quests. Craft shops/online will find you lots.

Ok, next report I'm gunna do it, fair warning
-
I Reversed my navara and launched the Haines hunter then fired up the etec. Kept looking through my spotters at the lowrance sounder. Then we cast halcos on my shimano rod from Kmart. . .

My tinny holds 45 litres of usually premium unleaded, I generally use 10-20 litres, I keep it topped up after fishing, I haven't had any fuel issues in 13 years, sometimes use the boat fortnightly, sometimes doesn't get touched for 2 or so months. Never used any fuel additives.
