  1. This was how I was taught for my Luds rockfishing! It's almost like letting the float 'drop' a bit at the start of the cast and works with the heavier rockfishing float and sinkers. I do use various line stripping casts in the harbour dependant on how long a cast is needed. What he said!
  2. Think using the front loader here for spinning my weed would NOT go down well…. I’m nowhere near brave enough to try that 🤣
  3. An old pair of board shorts are a good choice . .. . nice and light when wet.
  4. Have to agree with Noel, my pulse jumped looking at that spot! 2nd photo too in the right swell…. Lots of good washes and cabbage there too by the looks.
  5. Good to see DerekD also taught you the most important part of Luderick fishing….. Dont give away your fishing or weed spots in your photos! 😂🤣😉
  6. Congratulations Larkin! Awesome effort and thanks for sharing with us!
  7. Minister Moriarty has had a knee jerk POLITICAL reaction to pressure from the Animal Justice League nutters. No science, no research, no knowledge.
  8. Both Yowie and Nolem offer good advice! Swell wraps around headlands depending on the direction its coming from and will break on any ledge on an angle. The intensity drops as it wraps, but it will still impact the ledge. So your Easterly ledge will still get swell from ALL directions. I am in agreement with nolem, in that I am not a believer in 'freak waves'. Swell sets may/do join each other especially when swells are coming from multiple directions resulting in a larger set. There may also be a wind swell on top of a base swell directions. When rockfishing you need to be watching the swell way out to sea . . eg 200, 300, 400m not just at the waves about to hit your ledge. That way you can see larger waves in time to make a move. If I was you I'd be starting off with a guide such as Alex B, he will give you a good starting point. Most importantly, it will happen safely!
  9. Not sure what you expect to happen . . . I would think this would be normal in the surf? I know I get tossed around and I weigh PLENTY more than a jig 😂
  10. That's some fine looking snow Zoran! Canada?
  11. Sounds like you had a good trip Big N! Coopernook has a great little pub, bloody good spot for a feed and a beer.
