  1. thanks for your replies guys....cheers
  2. Landed this the other day at Cronulla..........Samson or Amberjack? I am thinking Amberjack as there are no blotches and the colour was very consistant. An awesome purple shade on top and solid as a brick. Any ideas?
  3. hey jig, is that a homemade block or scotty mount? matt
  4. thanks for the reply and pix wetpatch but my side rail extends around the stern. bummer
  5. Hi Guys, I received a Scotty downrigger 1050 for xmas Just trying to work out the best way to fit it to my Hornet Trophy 475. I have been looking at the optional mounts available and either from lack of information or too many beers I can't work out which one I need I already have the 360°C Swivel Mount for the larger boat but the dimensions of the base mount doesnt really fit on the gunnels on the 475.(I want it arms reach from the seating position) If anyone has any experience with the 1050 to the 475 I would be greatly appreciated if you could give any photos/advice/recommendations or beer. matt ps......on other sites so i apologise if you read this elsewhere
  6. i believe this is a safety issue. fish the damn wall at your own risk. i too have spoken to security with no probs. many many locals fish it regularly too. just pick up your rubbish and all will be okay
  7. top little session. in regards to eating fish from the river, i for one would never eat a resident fish from or even near the cooks. i have heard and seen some nasty stuff in there i feel sick just fishing it some days
  8. how can he submit it if he never weighed or measured it stew? BTW hal, awesome fish
  9. i wasnt sure what they were until i scooped this one up out of the georges river with the landing net one night apparently they can inflick a very nasty wound if not handled properly. i was wondering why this little bugger was stricking so viciously
  10. the bridge has been fishing very poorly lately. i chucked lures around lastnight for a few hours on the tide change/sunset for 3 flatties and 6 squid the only way to cook tailor is to smoke them. bloody sensational with a beer
  11. i have caught jews at this bridge on every moon phase and any tide. actually one of my best nights was on a full moon. with 3 in the boat we landed 8 or 9 soaps biggest going 9kg. it has just been a shithouse summer
  12. water temp might have an effect on the small soaps. i guess not on the big ones cause i have heard heaps of reports of 10kg+ jews landed off the 3rd runway on live yakkas latey. i guess the larger ones do as they feel. i recon the small soaps will be up the river. larger ones near the mouth luke, not sure on that. last year there were 15+ boats floggin the bridge almost every night i was out there and last year was a cracker season. i havent seen as many this year but i have only been out there 3 or 4 times the last 3 months. before that it wasnt that busy either. glad the kings are close by or i'de go nuts
  13. hey guys, well i absolutly cut the water to froth lastnight. i threw everything that has been successful in the past for 1 40cm flattie and a lost soapie. (couldn't set the hook with rum in hand) if some of you guys are serious about the up and coming jew night i would stay away from capt cook bridge......or only hit it on the tide change if desperate as that is when i lost the soap and landed the flattie. heaps of birds and bait there but no jew either head up milpera/picnic pt way or dump some live yakkas 400m off the 3rd runway. good luck, i would join you but im off to south west rocks on saturady morning for 2 weeks
  14.
