He's got no comebacks me tinks I burried him
Tis all fun & games luv taking the piss out of Bees but yesterday it got serious told the crew we weren't coming home till we got a fish, didn't want egg on my face nor to give Booby Man any excuse to blame me.
Proved my point
Bees is the Fishy Scarer we were back in early as well to boot

Worked hard for it frank lot of hrs on the water last 2 trips & yep pleased finally got a decent fish on the boat but we've done poorly compared to other boats.
Just haven't been where the fish were @ for ages yesterday ignored all reports etc went back to old school fishing days b4 gps etc followed my nose to all the good old routes & we saw fish all day
QUOTE
Nice nice fish mate
Yeah not bad wun boris but would've loved to have hooked the wun we saw jump out in front of the boat
Been slack last couple of years gamefish wise rarely ventured out but got the taste for it again even got a new set of Tiagra's & was busy spooling them up night B4.
Have to admit even though we haven't seen to much action so far this has got to be best start to
BIG Mahi Mahi season i've recalled for a long time prob get out on the dreaded weekend again

Very nice Jumpy!

Can't wait for my invite

Going to try to head out to the shelf on sun for some dolfin fish out of batemans bay. What size leader and line do i need to use. If trawling what speed and lure and when baiting what bait, do i burley for them with cubes. No fads out that wide but could try the fad out at 80 mtrs of durras. Weather looks great. Might try the downrigger and jigging as well.

That's a hard wun to answer I dont go out setting a spread to target just mahi my spread targets stickheads more than anything but the same spread has caught virtually every species in waters i've trolled.
Again my goat is different to yours as well I can run 2 transom, 2 rigger & shotgun along with a couple of short bibless as well if desired.
Mate if your looking for mahi's just as easy & more likely to hook a stickhead
I use 600lb mono leader most will say it's an overkill but dont have the need to matchstick my hooks like most have to do & I find the heavier leader makes it alot easier to trace the fish my traces are 20 ft long.
Most fisho's use 300 lb leader on lures that will cover ewe for even the stickheads
Line class is up to ewe 15 kg is prob a good wun to start off with, if I'd sighted mahi in pic & had the choice to feed it a bait my choice would've been a 6 kg outfit but that's me.
No such thing as a constant troll speed & I get sick of all the idiots on the net who jump up & say 8 knots those guys are wankers who dont have a clue.
Last sat in the quick current my troll speed was 3 knots going nth & 11 knots when I travelled sth
Your troll speed is governed by how well your lures work, if they're jumping off waves then slow down, ewe want the lures to travel underwater & rising to break surface leaving a nice smoke trail as they go, if all but say wun is working fine change the wun that's not, not all lures run the same heads like the appollo or similar are the safest & will allways run true.
I like to throw @ least wun radical head in the spread
QUOTE
when baiting what bait,
Ewe should not have any probs ketching slimmy's down your way & they would be my 1st choice followed by yakka's
If targeting mahi's with bait 50 lb trace will surfice no need to go super heavy.
Bear in mind tis the small mahi's which will sit under the fad, if ewe want the big models these are generally 100 + meters off the fad & dont keep working the fad in same direction vary approach when troling just an observation over the years i've noticed fish on certain days will only hit lures in wun direction wunce that direction is established work it.
Mahi's will allways follow hooked fish to the boat so be ready to drop a livey into the drink wunce you've established hooked fish is indeed a mahi
QUOTE
do i burley for them with cubes
Works for me go up current from the fad & start cubes ewe'll see mahi's in the cube trail if they're small try loading hook with a cube or 1/2 pilly
QUOTE
No fads out that wide
Dont need them this time of year the pro's drop lobster traps out in around 90 fathoms find them & they're as good as a fad

Wow 600lb what are you using, street power cables from telegraph poles? Man thats heavy. Dont you mean 60lb.

Heard an intresting trick today. Lay out a black plastic sheet on the water near a fad, drop a feather type lur down under the plastic.
Bit of a stupid idea it'll only blow away in the wind or get in the way, if fish are under the fad then wots the point ???
Tis the rope with it's growth that's the attraction not the buant fad itself
QUOTE
Also heard that not to spill any blood as this scares the dolfin fish away
ewe tell me ??
Your cubing those cubes have blood do they scare or attract fish ?????????????????

the plastic would be tied to a line i surpose, but wont bother.
The blood was in refernce to drops of blood from a caught fish, was thinking the same about cubing
Posted by: Jumpus GooDarus Jan 21 2011, 01:25 PM
Wot many fail to realise is that your boat is the best FAD out there it's wot attracts gamefish like mahi's
Ewe should've posted earlier
Was looking @ the goodarus SST's yesturday not the rubbish wuns, didn't bother looking @ water down your way
Pt Stephens will start going off like a bat out of hell on the 24th & week following for blacks/stripes
Cheap fuel day for those targeting Blues off Sydney dont have to travel far @ all

The best results I have had with Mihi is use a chrome plug long skinny and shiny
cast beyond the fad or cray float etc allow to sink till about 30 feet or so deep and then
wind like buggery ( stop winding when near the boat ) if no hookup .
A practice frowned upon these days is tethering the first caught, which keeps the
school around the boat, and thereafter jigging is successful.
