Once a year and takes 5 min a jacket to do - too easy ! The 4 Marlin jackets I had previously required to be inflated and left inflated for 24hrs then checked for leaks. So not a 5min job in my experience. It may have been specific to that model jacket but I recall marlin website saying the same for their products. cheers Zoran

Smile says it all ... congratulations and Merry Christmas ! Cheers Zoran

Great catch mate ... a tasty feed indeed. Back to basics can be so much fun - and more relaxing - there is a lot less cleanup and washdown afterwards for sure. +1 re inspectors. Cheers Zoran

I have a haines 635 (that used to have a 225) .... and I have always had to dunk my axles and wheel hubs. Whether I drive on or use the cordless drill electric or hand wind .... were you using a steep ramp?? The trailer has been going strong since 2001... I have changed the original brake rotors and hubs just two weeks ago. Still run original springs. Bearings are changed around the 5yr mark - whether they're noisy or not. I run bearing buddies and keep them correctly loaded with grease. Wash the trailer down with lots of fresh water after each salt dunking. Spray the disc rotors, hubs with WD40. Spray the springs with RP7 or similar. Cheers Zoran Original post re cordless electric -

Not this time mate. We couldn’t see anything on the sounder so didn’t bother breaking out the knife jigs. cheers Zoran -

Dieter must be catching up on work - think he jigged a day judging by the amount of messages he was getting on his phone on the water. Yup we did try live bait - its in the last few min of the video - no takers at 15m, 30m, 80m and bottom. Tried SPs and metal slices as well. No dollies to be seen on this day unlike the Thursday I had a few weeks back with Wayno on board. Cheers Zoran -

Ok everyone, I've changed my mind, when I catch my YFT, I'm inviting @kingie chaser to come share it and teach me to cook it (hopefully he will be on the boat at time of capture too) ! Cheers Zoran

Champion report from two Champion raiders ! ... so happy for you guys to pull the rabbit out of the hat ! I think just one correction to that post ... don't think its a YF Tuna.... given scratchie caught it, its gotta be a YF Snapper ! Congrats ... the smiles say it all. Cheers Zoran

Thanks @Yowie. Yup cod are poor man's lobster if cooked right - think we'll crispy fry this one, haven't decided as yet. I swear by SPs on ocean flatties - I make sure to use fully white or mostly white minnow shapes. Curl grub and other shapes have not worked for me. Could be a locality thing... go figure! Where I fish, we have caught quite a few small octopus as by catch, and one of the flatties threw up a white occy leg... so perhaps the long white SP simulates and occy. Anyway, it works on my boat ! Cheers Zoran -
Looks the goods... hope the prop is a quick fit and you're out on the briny. Cheers Zoran
