  1. Yeah in SA. Whiting heads are often used to catch big Snapper.
  2. Great report. Was up that way over Easter. Unfortunately sans boat.
  3. Driving up to Kingscliff at the end of January to stay for a week. Looking to do some fishing. Is it worth bringing the boat? (5m Haines) or just stick to beach and shorelines? Cheers Stash.
  4. mate awesome effort. If you ever feel you need to show someone else the ropes, let me know :-)
  5. Bushmans always worked, where others didnt.
  6. Nice report and thanks for thinking of others.
  7. Great post and thanks for taking the time to write it. Stash
  8. I saw this on another video.
  9. thanks for the tip. I am in a 5m Signature with all the open water gear. I am thinking a winch might be a whole lot easier.
  10. This actually looks like a better system than just simply putting a anchor retriever on the anchor rope and trying to catch it when you pull it up. It also allows you to detach from the anchor in emergencies and go back and retrieve it later. My only question is it would be good to have varying lengths of anchor rope for different depths eg inside the harbour vs outside the heads. Stash,
  11. I have parked at Mooney Mooney for a long weekend and had no problems. Lock your trailer to your tow ball. Leave nothing in the car
  12. looking at your rig, you have a running ball sinker - it is that to get the live bait down further?
  13. Willy best by far
  14. @shakey55 can you PM me his details.. cheers john
  15. I have sailed through parts of Croatia. It is amazingly clear waters and beautiful old towns. Unfortunately, the Mediterranean has been extensively fished out and there is really little around. Even the fish they showcase at restaurants are a very poor second to Australian equivalent. Also don't expect any Tackleworld or similar type shops stocking the latest Shimano gear, it is more likely a local shop with a few rods and sods. Hope that doesnt dishearten you, as Croatia is really amazing, just not the fishing.
  16. it is like a fake down rigger. You use a rubber band around the line above the swivel, attach a sinker. Rubber band breaks on strike. Either lose the sinker or have it on another lighter line. Cheers Stash
  17. +1 to slow trolling. You simply cover more ground. Make a long leader for the live bait and attach a sinker up near the swivel. Some people use a rubber band to drop the sinker on hookup.
  18. Well done and great that you released her
  19. seriously, though.. an old t-towel is the easiest way to grab flatties.
  20. probably immobilise most of us, Steve lol.
  21. While you can flush ETecs with a screw in hose adapter without starting, they still recommend it is better to flush from the bottom (muffs) up
  22. Great report and yes you get the odd idiot in boats
