is any one using one of these Diawa t3 overhead reels and if so are they as good as they look. Paul

I'm very much a fan of polycraft but there is no way you would be able to buy a 5.3 or 5.9 for less than $30.000, mores the pity Paul

the wife and I arrived in south Durras at around 7am the surf was very quite, no wind and dead low tide, nice to be on the beach with out wind I can tell you, the plan is to fish till high tide, the possum set up the burly bucket and staked it out in the surf while I set up the rods. possum and I release all fish we catch so we only take photos of average fish in each species we are catching on the day. 8 dart 4 flathead lost count of the small salmon Paul

looks like you have been having way to much fun, mate thanks for sharing,is there any chance you could tell us a little about the rig and method you are using Paul P.S. I fish the beaches south of Nowra

ok I am lucky enough that the welder at work will do some mods on the frame, like weld a light plate on the base and set the handle at a steeper angle. the idea for a light is a good one, using led's will be able to use one of the small 7amp batters just need to give it some though to the best way to fit it all up. I don't use live bait other than worms so I don't have to worry about that I'm going to try and stick with the wheels that are on the cart as they are quite wide (3inches) and look strong please keep the ideas coming Paul

It's good to see other people hitting the beaches and getting fish, yep I'd be happy with them as well Paul

thanks Graham, the light is a great idea as possum and I will fish well in to the dark hours. I will see what I can set up with l.e.d's and a small battery Paul

as we get older we try to find ways to make life a little easer , so I will try to convert this old golf buggy to carry the fishing gear to the beach, I would like to hear your ideas, even if you think it sounds a bit silly it maybe just what I am looking for. Paul

thats a nice little tinny and as for the poly what a great boat they are are you a member of pbo bill

thanks for the report mate, that's a top fish

that was the reason i got rid of my last tinny just could not beat the corrosion it just keep getting worse as the years rolled on i had owned it for 12 years and was second hand when i got it I replaced it with a poly 4.1 have had it for 4 years now and all still good. ask me again after it turns 12 to see if i still have it

Clark rubber for the marine carpet they got rolls of the stuff

yep red spot whiting is the most common name, they are a good feed if you don't mind all the bones, they also make a great live bait for jew, kings and flathead.

you have been in my shed watching me work haven't you, bamm i hat that

A top report mate, with luck i will get up there one day to have a crack at the big bad macks, and get in to so of those mangos as well.
