  1. Little blacks certainly put on a show. Good to see you get a few numbers on the board
  2. Unfortunately I think you will have to either remove or cut your bow rail ZMK. I've given a lot of though to this with my boat but i havent managed to work out how it could be done without either blocking my anchor hatch or my hatch to poke my head up out the front
  3. I've got the kick ass pie oven in my boat after upgrading from the black box style. Its awesome on the long days trolling around. Not much we haven't put through mine
  4. Many a slow day has been saved with a dirty great river carp or euro session. Biggest euro i've ever seen myself was 12kg. The old man found it floating dead against the bank in Burrinjuck
  5. I think i've mentioned on here before that you can sometimes increase the amount of time you are in the zone by deploying the sea anchor as the dollies will happily swim along under it
  6. I find the squid and gar fish come in even on my overhead lights when we're getting bait early in the morning.
  7. I've replaced them in a TLD recently. Not overly difficult. Not sure how similar the internals of a tiagra and a tld are though. In my experience if you send a reel to Dunphy/Shimano it'll cost you about $100 and its money well spent
  8. Have a look at Kodak brake components. They cost me a small fortune but the pads are 3 years old and going strong
  9. I used to just grab squid around the neck and give them a good squeeze to dispatch them until I had one some how slide back far enough to take a bite out of the webbing between my thumb and finger
  10. Flow coat is best sprayed IMO
  11. I've not long been through this process where i ground out about 90% of the spider cracks in my gelcoat using a dremel. The worst part is the grinding out is the easiest bit. I used a bog filler that you just buy as all the spider cracks are above waterline. From there it was a lot of sanding. I intended to re gelcoat the boat to pretty it up a bit so I sanded from gunnel rubber to chine. I took the worst advice since D day and rolled the flow coat on. The pitting you are talking about is the orange peal affect. It is unsightly and the only way to remove it is to wait for the flowcoat to go off totally which depending on your mix and ambient temperature may take weeks. Once this is done use the finest sand paper you can get away with as using an aggressive sandpaper actually makes things worse. When sanding away the orange peal you are going to remove the shiny coating from the flow coat. As a result you are going to need to wet sand and cut and polish to gain the best looking result for your boat. Flowcoat hates other flowcoat so if there is anywhere you have not sanded well enough the flowcoat will fail and will peal off. I know this all too well and it has caused me no end of stress. What im saying is you are best to take it back to glass if you wish to proceed with flowcoat. When my wrap eventually fails ill be going with 2 pack paint
  12. I've done surprisingly well on flathead drifting along the beach between callala bay and red rock in water where you can see the bottom. Find rocky outcrops for reds and the middle ground produces all types of fish
  13. Amazing how cold it can get on the water at night. Only takes the slightest breeze and it can be freezing
  14. A little off topic but last year we were running a pretty standard marlin spread on the way to the shelf we done a couple quick laps of the fad. in the Short corner I had a 14 inch pakula wombat i think, long corner was a large sprocket in evil, long rigger was a medium sprocket in lumo, short rigger a small purple cup face probably pakula to i think and then on the shotgun a smallish bullet style. We could see the dollies coming flying through the spread and grabbing the large sprocket everytime. They were cruising straight past 3 other lures that i would have thought they would be more interested in to grab an oversize lure for that particular area. Was interesting to see
