If so has anyone had any luck with in the past two weeks?
cheers

I walked from secret harbour
I walked from secret harbour surf club to golden bay this morning Colin and there are some breaks in the weed but its quite shallow sandbank sort of ground- theres some whiting, pilch etc around but with the deeper gutters yet to form the chances of a mulla would be slim i would think.... I did find one nice looking hole but with all the weed between it and the shore it would be a real headache trying to land anything large.
Hopefully by September it should all be clear.

thats pretty good, i have tamed the bearings in the 525 with a pretty thick oil so if you want it faster try a thinner oil. I just bought a 12ft tiralejo, gotta get out to give it a go.

yer took it out on my 10
yer took it out on my 10 footer, after a few casts i realised the bearings were FULL of GREASE. took it home and flushed the bearings out and oiled them. havent had a chance to use it since. itching but. was hoping the rescent swells would have created a few gutters. :(

Im extremely suprised i dont hear alot more reports on this site about fishing these areas! Tailor, mulloway, and a pretty good chance of a shark if you were to try.. Mate was surfing secret harbour the other week and the beach had to be closed coz of a big tiger shark!
