Was that the tiger shark that they found floating dead in the lake today ? craig

Sorry i cant help BUT what i will say is stay away from Lube Mobile ........ they quoted me .. $960.00 to replace a fuel pump in my 96 commodore . the mechanic down the road put in a genuine fuel pump for $260 and that included towing the car [ 2 ks] and a battery . they are a rip off . craig

mate the way i do it is i either tie off or if its heavy leader i use crimps to attach a bottom hook and with the top sliding one i just run the line through the eye of the hook and then use bait mate [ flexable thin cord sort of stuff ] and wind it around the shank about 20 times .to finnish off i do 2-1/2 hitches . it holds the top hook firmly and slides up and down with a bit of presure . hope it makes scence . craig

Dont know about the rocks BUT the beach fishes well craig

Hmmmm so much to say so litle time . hobie adventure ,s are a great yak , But there are more stable yaks around .The pedle mirage system is great ,BUT being mechanical it can ,does, and will break down .Hobie also have a problem with hulls cracking in and around the drive system .This is why me and many other yakkers wont buy them . now for me i would not want to hook up to fish such as what u want to chase and have the posabilaty of hull or drive failure .rare as it might be BUT it does happen . also if u look at most of the video,s on the net on targeting these fish they are on paddle yaks NOT peddle . another thing is u seem to want to chase these fish on a vessel in which u would need ALOT OF EXCPIERIENCE ON . i would recommend that u start off slow and gain some excpierience first maybe targeting the inshore palagics in ur area . hook onto a decent kigie and believe me u WILL HAVE UR HANDS FULL ...... it is not uncommon to be dragged around for 6 or more hrs when hooked on to a marlin . that is alot of ground to cover and return from .... again i say "start off small and get some excpirience" . craig

or just tell them to give u another reel . THOUGH i would get on to the manufacturer first and i wouldnt be suprised if they tell u to take it back to the shop and swap it over . this happened to me on a rod . craig

To many to mention . what sort of fishing u into ? bait , lures , sp,s . heaps of places around the harbour ,heaps of beaches . do a fishing report search on this site and also look at google earth . good luck craig

WTF im speachless craig oh and good on u mate i look forward to ur 1mtr girly

no gulps will dry out and harden if left out on the hook . to general a question .... what are u targeting ? craig

Tuff line if it was me and good luck up there craig

very nice ..i was going to suggest berkley . which model did u end up with ? craig

Late afternoon.... terigal beach 12lb braid ... fishing for tailor to be used as bait for the jewie session that night..... using half pillies 1 cast .... as soon as it hit the water it took of for NZ . 10 minutes later i saw the biggest tail slap i have seen . another 10 minutes later i saw the biggest mulluway in a wave that i have seen . 20 minutes later and almost landed ......... braid snapped = lost fish . yes they are there but i think they are more prevalent at night BUT if the food is there i guess they will be as well . [ later that night i caught my 1 and only jewie of 6 kg,s ] AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the memories craig
