Yeh I would if I had the tools. Got the pro coming in a few weeks. I will let you know what the issue is.

Yeah I have it booked in for a mechanic to look at it properly. Just thought maybe someone might of had a similar issue or experienced it. I was looking at possibly even upgrading to a 50hp Suzuki. Anyone know trusted dealers which sell them in the Sydney region?

Hi All, Took the boat out today and while driving the motor just switched off. Upon reving it doesn't seem to reving freely. Feels like the motor has lost it power and it doesn't seem to be running well. Wondering if anyone might have an idea of what the issue might be? Here is the video Video.mp4 I was thinking the computer is on the way out or possibly a piston issue? Not a fuel issue as I tested it on external tank as well.

Looks like the leather jackets are back in town. I will get ready for the bite offs. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Great catch, hopefully tomorrow I can find some nice legal reds

Haha sensible as the boat Layover period is like June July from memory lol. Yeh open tinny wouldn't be fun at all.

Yeah I am soft and don't go out as much in the winter 😃

Thanks Guys, The rock cod are good for fish soup as well. Winters coming boys stock up on ya fish (few more trips before it comes obviously)

Yeah looks like heaps until you start giving it out to all your family

Hey All, So last Friday I went out again for the second time in a week, absolutely unheard of for me due to work and other commitments. Started on the water at the usual crack of dawn and started doing my favorite thing, jigging for calamari. Within the first 1 hr or so of drifting we grab enough for a feed. As soon the sun started the come up he calamari were off the bite and it was time for a good old bottom bash. Went to spot X and we fished the reef for a good 2 hours or so for a nice mixed bag of fish. x1 nice legal pan size snapper at 31cm a thumber flathead, mowie and few

Yeah as @leonardgid mentioned they're Southern Maori wrasse. Some additional information https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/375948/Southern-Maori-Wrasse.pdf Few different ways to cook them. One way is you can make a fish soup out of them. or you can fillet them and lightly fry them.

if I get a few of them, I use one for bait and take the rest home to eat

Cheers

I think it looks like a baby jew fish or an aussie salmon 😕 maybe its a hybrid

Awesome feed, were you in deep water to catch those calamari?
