  13. Hi guys and girls just wandering if anyone can give me some pointers for catching some live yellow tail and squid in the harbour i tried last night for a while but the weather was shockin so cos i wasnt getting anything plus weather i canned it i tried around abbotsford wharf and a couple of others for squid with a squid jig and berleyed pretty hard around cockatoo island for yakkas to no avail any pointers will be very much appreciated as i want to start fishing the system more cheers
  14. That does it im out there next weekend haha top fish
  15. Yeah i got a 2008 lightning xr 40hp merc sittin on the back of a 4 m stacer bloody love it cant say enough good things about em
  16. 40hp forsure youll definately wish you went that option when you got perfect conditions n just wana nail it and for sure tilt n trim
  17. Yeah i definately wouldnt be puttin a casting deck in but id go for a solid flat floor which should improve the stability as far as walkin around in it and that if it was me and only stickin to the calmer rivers id be takin the middle seat out i know people think its a big no no and alot of people will poo poo it structual integrity and so on but in calm water its perfectly safe as ive done it before and it was awesome freed up alot of room and was still super tough and yeah rod holders fishfinder thats about all you could do with it but yeah its got good potential for a river boat for sure
  18. I got a solas stainless steel prop i kept in getting bad prop torque like my boat would always tilt to one side pretty badly no matter how i adjusted the tilt or whether or not i had hydrofoils on but as soon as i changed it the boat was perfect im not sure the old alloy prop was hit by something but looked brand new and i think i got a couple of more knots out of the motor to seems to use the same amount of fuel but looks very nice not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing Theres alot of theives around lookin for an easy steel so i put a stainless lock nut on it
  19. I got exact same motor The only time mines ever done that is when the little rubber o ring on the quick connect fitting wore a little n was letting a little bit of air in which was enough i also had it happen to another merc motor was a 2005 25hp also check all the way up the line
  20. Should of put them under your gunwales with a dimmer bro dont they blind you at night?
  21. Definately never ending story haha
  22. Yep I think my best bet is maybe take my boat out once or twice a month oh no what a shame haha But what about me bloody whippa snippa haha
  23. Yeah not really a stouch just searchn for answers as I also use this method for my whippasnippa n blower etc I also just let em idle out Just wish I could get a definative answer lol
  24. Yeah id love to know now yous both sound very convincing My outboard is a o8 model 4o hp lightning xr ( oil injected )
