Hi Garfield 28 Found a good patch of Flattys bout 500m west of the reef. Could not mark any bait or fish over the reef so didn't bother as to many rock cod. Cheers Loomesy

Can't comment on the Hawkesbury but myself and a mate got 11 on the weekend at Port Stephens returning two undersized and one large female. Season looks good. Used chicken legs and mullet for bait. Cheers Loomesy.

That's what my hive is Neil a flo hive. Still needs the same maintenance as a standard hive and not as productive as a regular but much easier to harvest. Cheers Loomesy

Hi Raiders Pinched a bit of honey from my bee hive today. Got almost 3.5 kg from two frames. Nothing beats fresh honey. Cheers Loomesy

I'm heading there in the morning if you want to tag along. Cheers Loomesy

It's about 5 kilometres from the mouth. Lots of undersized snapper and red rock cod Cheers Loomesy

Hi Jani I spend a lot of time in Finland for work and will be baclk in late December or early January. How far are you from Tampere Cheers Loomesy

Thank you Waza for the detailed use and history of this rod. I will definitely source a centre pin reel and give it a go. Thank you again. The information is much appreciated. True FR spirit Cheers Loomesy

Hi all Have been having a bit of a tidy up and came across one of dads old rods. It's a Jarvis Walker black queen deluxe solid fibre glass with cork grips about 8ft long. It's still in really good condition and I was wondering what these rods were used to target. This rod would be easily 40 years old and if anyone has information on what fish they were used to target would be great. Cheers Loomesy

That view looks like you were at the lucky shag bar Baz. I'm also in Perth tonight on my way home to the bay tomorrow after two weeks over here for work. Leave first thing in the morning. Good luck with the charter. Cheers Loomesy

Hi Raiders Put the boat in at 6am this morning and went straight to the wreck off stockton break wall to catch some lives. Filled the bait tank within 15 minutes with yakkas and small mullet. Headed out to north reef and realised we had wasted time catching bait in close. The school's of bait fish on the reef was unbelievable. Dropped a couple of lines to drift and also through out a small mullet as live bait as there were small kings on the buoy. Only caught rock cod on the bottom lines but surface mullet got smashed on the surface only 20 meters from the boat. Fought it for a while but pulled the hook before I could see colour. I was so devastated. Headed about 500m north of the buoy and started another drift. This time picking up flat head. Would of caught 40-50 over a couple of drifts but only two keepers. Good day on the water and excellent conditions. Cheers Loomesy

No takers mate so didn't head out. Cheers Loomesy

Hey Rick. I have a month off work so let me know what days suit you and we might be able to work out a trip. Cheers Loomesy

Thinking about heading out early from Stockton boat ramp Tuesday morning the 30th to a couple of close inshore reefs in my 5.2 stacer. If any body is interested please Pm me
