Own a boat and it gets worse B=bring O=on A=another T=thousand HE HE

Hi Mate I had the 2004 stejcraft monarco 6.4 exactly the same hull poor riding boat in the ocean slapped around on every little bit of chop poor windscreen design need to be 6.6 feet tall to see over the dash comfortably very poor fittings i think all made in china {not that theres anything wrong with that} gelcoat was very thin screws came out everytime i went out seats constantly came loose it was hard work maintaning this boat due to the poor finish i bought brand new and only held on to it for 4 yrs due to to many minor problems .i think the worst part though is they look great when new but tired after 2 years i now have a 5.4 metre aluminium centre console and feel a lot more safe at sea in this than the stejcraft cheers

hi all the trout will be in the nepean but not worth going yet water is so high went for a look early today best to wait till water drops dramatically then fish the lower side of the weir with spinner baits or worms ive had succsess with this method years ago before the drought cheers

here goes for my story was about 18 months ago was going out for an early morning fish 3am had a late night not enough sleep my boat was 6.5 meter with 200 litre fuel tank had about a quater tank so wanted to fill up for a full days fishing got to the servo early in the morning still half asleep pulled out the pump started fueling up laughing with the mates not concentrating at all pump stops excellent full tank around 190 dollars worth of fuel still laughing with mates put pump back in holder something clicks ohh f--- i say to my mates i think i filled up with deisel nooo they say jump up on the side of the boat smell the fuel yep filled up with deisel off to home disapointed no day out decided to empty fuel tank big job take up floor undo the fuel line and dump all the fuel into 20 litre buckets after about two hours dumping fuel in my yard tank is empty off to the servo again to fill up so that the boat wasnt empty that day cost me about 500 bucks and didnt get out of penrith

the moored boats at callala hold plenty of squid aswell just get over the weed

hey i got the 2010 90hp suzuki four stroke on my centre console best thing i ever bought had a few different engines from time to time all 2 stroke i would never buy a 2 stroke again to noisey to smelly and having to buy oil is another cost the suzuki heaps of power great fuel consumption and extremly quiet cheers

hi all was down there sunday aswell left from parsley bay smooth seas no t much wind did ok heaps of trevally and some kings biggest 64cm lost a heap on the reef due to light line had the kings in the burley trail but wouldnt play on the heavier gear left there about 11 am and found a masive school of salmon off palm beach landed about 20 kept a couple released the rest left them on the bite cheers

hi all i agree with mutsy if i invite them i dont expect anything just the way i am i guess but when you get the guy thats pestering you all the time to take them its a different story i have never asked for money and guess what i dont get offered thing that gets me the most more than anything is not the money its the cleaning up this takes a few good hours and we all know how tired we are when we get home cheers

hi guys try you tube thats where i learned to use hds very handy cheers

hi all i used to fish garie on a weekly basis it is very dangerous i used to fish a place called the deck it was on the north side between garie and watermolla amazing fishing there at times with salmon tailor trevally brim big kings blue groper snapper and jews all caught here{that was 20 years ago dont think it would fish like that again } the downside of fishing here is how dangerous it is we used to have a 20 litre plastic drum tied off to the old railway track that had been hammered in to the rock so if you ever went in and were lucky enought not to get dragged under the rock you could throw the plastic container out to the person in the water and get pulled back to safety. i was there one day and the water was so flat it was amazing but like people say watch for the freak wave we allways watched the water but this day we copped the freak wave it went right up to our chest luckily there was only two of us on the rock so we could both hold on to the railway track it was the scariest thing i encountered as a rock fisherman sort of gave it up after that bought a boat instead hope this gives you an insight to this spot cheers

hi guys i live 5 mins from nepean lived there all my life there are plenty of spots around depending if you are going land based or boat i have caught trout bass and big mullet down there both from land and boat also carp if you want to catch them but dont go there very often anymore to many skiers in summer fishes best after some heavy rain i would be more than happy to show you guys around just let me know cheers
