  1. Hi All Thank you for the updates , I may have had too many wraps on my FG knot Thanks
  2. Hi All Got cut off on the rocks when I was lure fishing for pelagics . Just wanted to know if any one has tried using a bimini twist to a swivel to the lure Or is it better to just have a heavier leader line Thanks
  3. Thank you for your replies . I usually fish off the rocks for bream / salmon / bonito / luderick
  4. HI All I was planning on getting an Alvey rod/reel . Would like to know if any of you have used one before Is there anything I need to know How have your experiences been Unfortunately I don't know anyone who has an Alvey reel to find out how their experience has been so far Thanks
  5. Hi After using soft plastics for bream flathead on a light setup. I noticed the braid line twisting while replacing fluro . Would like to know if it better to have fluro connected to a snap swivel and then to the jighead? Or is it best to have fluro connect to jighead itself? Any downsides to the braid twisting over a period of time ? Would like to know your thoughts . Thanks
  6. Hi All I'm planning to get a new rod . Prefer a rod around 7ft in length in 2 sections (easy to carry on train / ferry) able to cast lures around 40gms . Do you guys have personal recomendations based on personal experience .Hoping rod to be worth around 200$
  7. Hi All Thanks for the info . I managed to have an entire fishing session without any wind knots " Fingers crossed". I realized a couple of mistakes I kept making . 1. Reel had too much line on it . Removed a bit of line so that it's not overspooled. 2. When I cast, if its against the wind . I get alot of slack line . To avoid it I close the bail when I feel there is enough line out . Once I close the bail I pull a bit of line with my hand . This avoids any slack on the line in the spool. Thank you all very much. Appreciate it. I use an FG knot
  8. I use an fg knot .I will re spool to check again
  9. Hi All Need some info on how to reduce wind knots . I started spinning recently and keep getting wind knots quite often . I have a saragosa 6000 with 30lb tasline on a SHIMANO JEWEL 962 8-15KG SPIN ROD . Initially I believed the knots were caused cause the fluro was 60lb . I moved this down to 40lb and noticed some improvement . Any assistance would be appreciated Thanks
  10. Hi All Just wanted to know how was your service experience for daiwa / shimano reels . Have any of you experienced difficulty servicing daiwa magseal reel . Do they cost alot to service? Thanks
  11. Thank you all for the info
  12. Hi All I am looking for info on a lure fishing rod ( Spinning Reel) . Going to be using it for hardbody lures/ metal lures weighing around 50gms .Is there a difference between jig spin rod / top water rod ? I would be fishing off the rocks so something around 8ft rod length would be ideal . Shimano jewel had a top water rod around 8ft . Is this a good option, or if you guys know anything with Daiwa or Penn would be great Thanks
  13. Thanks for the info Jim .I tried getting onto the rocks from the walkway but was unsuccessful . Usually when Im at the wharf I do a couple of guys fishing from there . I guess I would keep trying or one just go there to find that spot:)
  14. How do you get there .I tried a couple of times but to no avail
  15. Hi All Was planning on fishing for blackfish around The Entrance NSW " Land Base Fishing ". I would like to know around the Entrance if there is a good spot for getting their bait "sea grass". Thanks
