  1. Yep, a nice fish to eat. Ate millions as a kid..... NZ rocks..lol
  2. Newport, saltpan, palm beach, taylors point, to name a few. just burley up and u should be fine. size may be an issue
  3. What is it with some people, they have the whole freekin' ocean but must come within 10 mtrs of you fishin'. The other day i was flicking for flatties within 20 mtrs of the shore and an idiot thought he would go between me and the shore.(he had at least 200 mtrs on the other side.) I didnt say anything(cough cough)...
  4. That might be a problem Basil, as compressing files means we have to decompress them. Not sure how that works on a forum. It sounds like a pain in the ass to me. But if your determined, then use win rar to compress and upload the compressed file. Maybe check with admin to see if its a goer
  5. I do it all the time with an albright knot(knot strength is great), with no failures to date. The other option is to buy cheap braid from hongkong(32bucks for 1000 mtr of coloured braid) and just change it all.
  6. Cor blimey Basil, Are ya gonna leave a couple for us amateurs. You 1 man fishing fleet you....Lol
  7. Wow... Thanx for that info. I for 1 will be changing my fish storage practices from now on. I'm guilty of washing the fillets in fresh water.
  8. Yes, that is great. But they only did this as a vote catching ploy. Its a trial and after we vote for labour(sic) the trial will be over and the liberals will repeal the law and its back to square 1..... Pessimistic you say?. "Hell yeah"...Dont vote, the government will get in..
  9. I reckon that this thread should be closed NOW.. this thread will only end in tears for alot of us.. And insomniac92 ,
  10. Im happy to hijack this thread..Love your work Huey. ..I for one would never even consider getting repairs or buying a motor or boat from someone else. I remember when i first bought my boat and brought it to Huett marine. I was treated in a way that surpasses money (thanks Craig) Just to think, that someone thinks that your company would give someone a bum steer is absolutely abhorrent to me. And to all you people who are considering buying or getting repairs, Dont go past our sponser....A fair days work for a fair days pay and then some. " In my humble opinion.".. Remember, that he gives away for free on this site, what you would go to X dealer/mechanic and pay money for. ................... Try getting that elsewhere
  11. Your a very very happy camper Butch.One of those is on my bucket list too. Congrats.
  12. Hey, dont blame the boat or the crew. They are within the law... Its the bloody pollies who make the rules. If your gonna be angry, vote the #*+^#!!* out. No use crying over spilt milk. We need to act for our future. Make a point of finding out who is supporting us, and vote for them. I am.....
  13. Your already a mentor Pete, but special dispensation will be given to you cos it was Stewy. Ans a new section will be added. Helping the terminally helpless.
  14. Just checked my email and messages....Couldn't see an invite anywhere.
  15. I have been on many many forums and this one is by far the best for all of the above reasons... But to be able to let your kids freely access the site with no apprehensions is the crowning glory. Hats off to admin(bows low). Noone is made unwelcome and the wealth of information and friends to be made are to be envied by other forums.... I would at this time just like to say thanks to Stewy and Donna for a stella effort, fishraider could not be fishraider without you....
  16. Fishing mate, you can have cold roast lamb on your return.........And if ya missus loves ya, she will save some for ya...
  17. Yep, the smile says it all...Great catch mate
  18. Perfect timing for that book thats in your head Roberta..
  19. Somehow my anti cavitation plate has broken (hydrofoil on it) and the piece has gone to davy jones locker. Im looking for a gearbox case. I have tried outboard wreckers, ebay, gumtree and cant find a thing except a whole leg for $900. Can anyone point me in the right direction for said part?...The hydrofoil is keeping me on the water but Im panicked about what may happen..Thx
  20. If it is a good feed (imho) , then its coming home with me... But just enough for a feed, Then the rest go back.
  21. I dont use sunscreen and Im off to the Doc's to get the melanomas' cut off my back, cos Im really smart and take my shirt off all the time....Ill be using it from now on and bugger the consequences
  22. If you need a good life jacket, get the self inflating ones. They are thin and great for fishing. Just remember to write the date of purchase on the inside of the life jacket. The seller will show you and explain what you need to do each year. The cost ranges from 80 buck to 200. And as for the water police they should know better, I would be ringing them and asking why you should be paying and quoting the offense notice number. With luck the officer will be reprimanded for being over zealous.
  23. Nice work Allan, those crabs are worth all the effort
  24. I love the smile on the dial... That is a brute of a bream. Now she will be pestering u, to go with .
