  1. Great writing and report, felt like I was there and brought back memories of losing some good fish over the years. Just think, theres always next time. 😊
  2. I think i had some fun with those same Salmon on Sunday morning off Malabar. They were busting up everywhere but in a kayak it was hard work catching up. I was using a plastic slug type lure for a while then switched over to a metal after the plastics were falling apart. In terms of retrival, I would mix it up. If they were on the surface I'd try and cast past them and then rip it through the school quite fast, with a pause here and there. If i could see on the sounder they were down deep, I'd let it sink for 5 secs or so then the same type of retrival. Landed around 5, lost a few more. I also prefer single hooks as I don't often keep fish. Easier to remove and get straight back into the school.
  3. Nice report there and interesting hearing about ageing the fish. Hope the school makes its way down to Malabar. Nothing more fun than chasing a salmon school on the kayak.
  4. Great report a one chunky pig, nice one
  5. Personally I wouldn't be heading offshore in a kayak that small. Recommended length is usually around 4 metres. I used to head out on a Tarpon 100 which is about 3 metres before I got a Profish 400 and now a Revo 13, and that felt small for offshore. As @anthman mentions above, it could just be the wake off a boat or some backwash, a small kayak will really feel it.
  6. Hey there, if it was me I would probably look at launching from Grays Point or the end of Water St in Burraneer Bay for my first time launching the boat. I'm kayak based and places like Wallys can have some very impatient boaties waiting to launch on the weekend unless you get there very early. Good luck on the maiden voyage 👍
  7. Great report Joe, your doing well on the George's jewies. I fish the George's now and then but have yet to hook one.
  8. Nice report and good catch. That cuttlefish is an absolute monster.
  9. Very nice catch and that flounder is a stonka.
  10. Hey Daniel, I'm up here at the moment and have been getting alot of squid at Boat Harbour and Fishermans bay. I'm on a yak but have been getting them close to the rocks not too far out.
  11. I was out on my yak Sunday morning and another guy told me a few of the ones he got had the tags in them. I got a few up to 60cm, but that was the biggest. So much fun though on the light rods 😁
  12. Thats an awesome catch. Nice one getting a sneaky fish in, well worth it.
  13. I've had a look at the proposal and was wondering if anyone can clarify something for me. If a section of the proposal is set as a 'special purpose zone', wouldn't you still be able to fish the area?
  14. Nice catch. I'm with you on the Pike, they stink but taste very very nice. I'm not allowed to bring them in the house anymore though , a bait option only.
  15. Very cool, like that guys Youtube vids as well
