Was going stale of late long time between fush's with weather the way it's been

Did sneak out last saturday more a waste of time cause allthough not so may fonsy jackets to lose rigs to bloody barracoutta took their place, so I called it an early day.

Pick handles were about 2day but not as bad, goodarus news was the Snappy Tom's were back nothing exeptional biggest around 48 cm's

Just nice pan size'd wuns average 45 cm's, kept 4 of dem prob got around 8 or so along with all the other wittle fishy's swiming aound the ocean

Plastic's prob did most of the damage Tu Day

hmmmmmm you seem to have the snapper pretty well sussed. Were you fishing inshore around Botany/Hacking or did you go further south?

Shoulda gone out today, weather looked great until late arvo.

Down South

Bay has been a waste of time this year, plenty of snappy toms but 90% have been undersized, did fush the bay 2day & again all undersized



R U wun of the Chookens Bees Galea Bred ????????????

Flat as all day ran home to the hacking cruising on 25 knots in the wittle goat

If the forecasts are correct then this saturday will be f*cken awesome. Southerlies until late friday, stirring up all the food. There'll be a bit of southerly slop hanging about but should be fishable.

But offshore seems to be alright too, one guy jigged up a 15kg+ kingy (more likely 17-18kg) on Saturday. 120cm on the dot, and very fat. One fillet weighed 7kg so your guess as to the weight.



Really? Well you were out there so.....

But it definitely picked up at my place at around 5pm-ish.

With winter sport finishing, i will be wetting the bed and the boat this weekend

Nice fish once again Mr Jumpy

Me Tinks ewe need to learn how to diagnose those 4casts more GooDarus than ewe do.

Dont just look @ the wind speed it's the least of the probs when fushing offshore, tis it's direction that's more important

Sat is coming off a 2.5 meter swell from the day b4 [not goodarus] when it's NE's blowing on saTuday

Tu morror is my pick 4 the next week



I named him Justin Just 4 Jew

F*ckin awesome weather for inshore snapper work. I never said it was going to be comfortable.

The only good thing about offshore is that it seems there are a fair few kings hanging around, not the weather, and judging on the 18kg model some of them are very good fish.

Alot to learn PadWunGurner

Weather esp wind plays a bigarus role when fushing even in close

Pick the right wind/swell direction & it's the difference between staying on the fish or missing out.

B4 I decide where to fish I take all that into consideration, that's why some days I opt to just go squidding cause I know wind wont hamper me even if it's blowing hard I sneak behind protection & wear a condom



Unfortunately they're still about

A couple of mates got fish up around 10 kg jigging up @ terrigal on the weekend, which reminds me I have box's & box's of knife jigs ranging from 60 grams up to 500grams up for sale @ ridicula's price of $5 each just to get rid of them I'll get around to taking a pic or tu then post them.

Got rid of most of the poppers but still a few box's of those left

Stuff the kungs snappy toms are starting to show Stan got sum nice fush to 5kg when I got these but he was out in deeper water cause I like throwing the SP's @ them I opt to fush where I have been in shallower water prob sneak out Tumollo again

An anchor helps if drifting fails.

Unfortunately the weather seems to have taken a turn for the worse and the boat is out of action anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

MMmm.. Put me in for a handfull of jigs Jumps, and some squid jigs if any come up.. Hopefully be getting to sydney in the next month or so.. Only ben on the water once this year and the second half of the year aint looking much better, going to have to sneak down the coast at some stage before I go mad though...

Forget what fish smells like ;) .. Even bought some ANDE line in large spools cheap from the states and fixed all my reels up redy for action..

Better pull out the roster and see when i can sneaky down to batemans for a few days!

Alex, I'm pretty sure he is talking about the travelling in the swell. Not so much the current when at the spot..

And he does wear a condom whilst fishing.. Ive seen it, it's disgusting!! Dont ask me why? He just does...

Should get a few knife jigs as well. Nice snappytom Jumpy.

Chad were are you getting the line from ? I got 2 deep sea alveys i want to full up with mono.

Cheers

Well Well Well Spud
Tickle Mee Fanny

You've mastered the Stick Baits
And now you're into Knife Jigs

Wot gives ??
DId ewe finally convince Foxy to give ewe sum IQ

Is this him???

I've worked out wot ewe've been doing wrong kk

You're supposed to let go off the stick when ewe throw it not hang onto it

Jumpus are those barracoutta any good to eat I never seen one
Paul

Wouldn't know poly


They smell not that much worse than pike

On another note The Jelly Bean pooped around 4 a visit 2day

[Hasn't grown @ all since last I saw him ]

Anyways he did quite well last sunday on the Reds as well wide off Longy Reef

There are a LOT of fish ahead of Barracouta in terms of eating.

The big ones are apparently quite fun on light gear but that's about it.
