  1. I hope so, we got one yesterday 100 km out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Good work Gary, it's a shame it was lost. Was that the only fish you's hooked yesterday? Albert
  3. Awesome It's great that you found the big braes let alone hook him up, Top effort Gary, well done. Your going to have to come on my boat and show me where these blues are Albert
  4. You should be ok, but if the southerly does not settle you may have issues goin in that boat
  5. I may go this Wednesday depending on how much work I get done tomorrow, heard a few wahoo caught today
  6. We got one on a 13 inch lumo sprocket hit the long rigger, hour and half fight, had within meters of boat 3 or four times then spat the hooks. Gutted hookup was early 7am, second hookup was on a deep diver purple about 11am lost that too
  7. I thought tuna was better than the rest (shark, billfish, gems, marlin, etc) can we get clarification on tuna? On the same note I was told that canned tuna is good as they generally pack the smaller ones in cans, but maybe the big blufins might be an issue? Clarification please
  8. Your right about not doing it properly, my old top ender was earthed to the hull, that's how I got it from hunts marine, went back and told them but they did not care. I brought it up in the boating section under electrolysis. That's another story but. WHERE ARE D TUNA??????
  9. I was lucky, got it when the aussie dollar was $1.07 US, and US economy was struggling, with electronics trailer, duties, taxes and all the other bs that goes with it cost me Just over 70k, maybe around 80k as i am constantly doing stuff to it. But overall im happy.
  10. The topenders are great boats, I used to own a 530 Side Consile a year ago, the economy is great as they are light, easy to tow, but when it comes to going wide ill be careful, It once took me 3 hours to get back from the peak when the wind unexpectidly picked up, and could only take it to browns in the best conditions. I also found that they have electrolysis issues, with the paint bubbling, so quickly got rid of it and imported this beast.
  11. Was that Yesterday? How far south were you? My leave passes are also spent, but if bluefin are around there way be a divorce case worth considering. lol
  12. This is the most expensive fish ever caught
  13. Hey Damo, I do hope that your right Our Day Yesterday started at 4am and ended at 8pm We went straight to Heatons and were there by sunrise, There were a few birds, we worked the area for a while then packed and headed out towards the eddie so punched out a further 75km from heatons doing 25-30 knots . the only signs of activity was on the edge of the eddie where the water was blue and at 18.4 deg, as we got in to the eddie it was about 17.6deg so we went a bit deeper, 15km into it and green with lots of rubbish and kelp. We did not turn a reel apart from a Kinglet caught 165km out that was tagged and released by my mate Anton it gobbled a lure half its size, we zig zaged north between the blue and green water where there was most activity but did not turn a reel. we went back south east of heatons where we got onto them on thursday and worked the area till sunset. We were crusing between 25 and 30 knots the whole trip, conditions were as great as the company, (four on board) the box of VB throw downs went down well, but the 450 Litres of fuel proved the Kinglet to be my most expensive fish ever caught pound for dollar. will post a picture of the kinglet when i figure out how. Albert
  14. I believe the SBT season is done for the year!
