  1. Hey Bartos, My mate and I head out in Botany almost every weekend at some point if the winds are right. We are relatively new to yal fishing but have been fishing for a few years. We have see the same results from the yak and managed a few feeds over the past couple of weeks. Let us knwo if you would like to meet up. We will be heading out tomorrow in Botnay. Hopefully to catch a few flatties, whiting and possibly squid if the water is right.
  2. Hi All, Thanks for the tips I am still testing Yaks out and will hopefully make up my mind before summer. At the moment I leaning towards the prowler 4.3 only due to price and all round capabilities. The PA12 is awesome but a bit heavy and pricy. I will put up some pictures once I make the purchase.
  3. Thanks for the tips Alan, I am off to check out some yaks tomorrow so will look at the Hobies and see what I think. I will also look at the prowler and see what it is all about. This is all very confusing for a novice.
  4. Hi All, I have been reading through all the posts about yaks but I am a little unsure as to what I should purchase. I have narrowed down my search to these models but as I have not done much Kayaking before I am uncertain on which direction I should head in. These are the things I will be looking at doing General fishing in Botany, Syd Harbour and the Hacking occassionally head to Longreef(weather permitting and confidence) Now the three yaks I have found are the Ocean prowler 4.3 Hobbe PA12 Hobie Outback I am ahppy with the price on all three but want something that is practicle but has all the benifts for doing some deent fishing. I will look at installing a Fish finder and additional bits and bobs. ANy help would be much apreciated. JVA
  5. Hi Guys, I am after some assistance. A mate and I are keen on purchasing some yaks to take are sydney and do a spot of SP and trolling. My mate has been looking at the above and thinks he has found a great deal. The americans seem to think that they are pretty good but because we are new to the whole thing some much needed advice would be much appreciated. If any of you kind fisho's could help out that would be much appriciated. Jacques
  6. Well done mate, great looking fish. Woth spending the hours on the water for a result like that
  7. I have only done one trip to BB and it was probably the most productive fishing all year. As mentioned above try the Oil Wharf and the White drums. Burley is the key. Good luck
  8. Thanks Guys, I will give Craig a call and see what he can do for me. Maybe the tax man will be nice this year and I can up my budget. Much apreciated
  9. Hi Raiders, I need a little hep. I am looking at getting a new fish finder to help me locate the fish a little easier but am very confused about it all. I know you need to spend money to get a quality product but I am on a budget but want to get the best money can buy. I have a round $500 to spend but there is so much on the market I don't know where to turn. Please help?
  10. Very Nice mate, That will taste so good!!
  11. Hi All, It has been a while since I last posted something but I am looking for some help(what's new) I am looking for a good drummer spot either between Botany and the Shire or around the eastern Suburbs. Most of the time I make the drive out to Long reef as it always seems to produce but I was hoping there would be a spot a little closer to home. I have tried Bare Island but as most of you know it can get rather crowded. Please PM me if you do not wish to reveal your location. I am more than happy to tag along with someone if they have space or wish to teach a new boy some old tricks. Any help would be apreciated. Tight lines
  12. Well done, nice looking fish
  13. Great report, lets hope the long weekend brings some good fish
  14. Hey Sarge We normally use one 6/0 circle behind the head and get him down to the bottom. we also trim the top tail slightly. Hope this helps
  15. They sure were big Slimies, biggest ones we have seen. Not bonnies, these guys had tiny teeth. What ever took the massive livie was big and it was not stopping. With regards to catching slimies, pretty much the same as Yakkas but there where tones of slimies in plauge proportions so we got the small spinners out on light gear and had some fun.
