A few people have commented about being warned by fisheries for having dermersal heads, frames etc for cray bait on board during dermersal ban period.

Havent they got anything better to do?

Will be interesting to see where they are going with this idiotic rule.

Lots of 14y Olds are gonna be doing their RST soon I reckon.

Personally I think it's a good thing as being >0.05 is pointless when I have to drive home anyways and there's some truely pissed units that should be in charge of a boat but could possibly have pushed it to 0.08.

 I know i'm beating a dead drum but------ isn't amazing that the only part of warnbro sound that isn't a marine park is where they put the port kennedy boat ramp in?

If they can do it for tat ramp why not a new one at safety bay? our council is full of crap and not working for the rate payers of the area.  Screw em.

Gday All

I'm getting my trolling outfit set up properly for this summer and would appreciate any thoughts on the best set-up for a 6.8mtr boat, single outboard with 4.5mtr outriggers. I'll be using 37kg outfits with 80w reels, just not sure yet on how many lines I should go with, I'm leaning twoards 4, Will be 2 in the boat or solo. I'm fairly competent in a boat and no probs with 4 lines on tuna/dollies etc but havn't ran heavy outfits yet. Have teasers also.Want to maximise my changces of getting a large specimen to the boat if i hook up, because I will find them, just a matter of time!

 When i was a cxhild i thougt as a child and played with childish things.   The i became a man and bought a boat and went fishing and caught Snapper and Dhu fish and Crayfish, drunk beer and never mowed the lawn--- so much better now.

Hi,

After any recommendations for where to get my 2001 Evinrude serviced, my previous service provider says they don't service Evinrude's anymore.

I'm based South of the river.

 Hey Guys,

Latley I have been interested in Kayak fishing and I am considering buying a fishing kayak.

Questions: What is a good kayak under $1000? Are 8ft rods too long for a kayak? How far out can you go? How stable are they? How hard are they to transport/get on the roof of a car? Do fishing kayaks have enough storage to be on the water for a few hours? Is it worth getting a small electric motor?

Thanks :)

 Just a question . Is there any reason you can't use ex cray pot ropes as an anchor rope . I know it's not as easy on the hands but is that the only reason . See a lot of cray ropes for sale and thought it could be a good backup . Does anyone use it ? 
Chears 

 First crack on beach chasing tailor for the 

big rod . Tailor bit most of the arvo . Got 

two nice ones biggest 53cm . Ended up with

11 . between me and my mate with him 

bagging nice bronze which we kept for eating.

he dropped something maybe mulloway hooks

didnt stick . With couple of eagles which kept

us busy . Good after work crack at it cheers 

pirate .

 A mate sent me a video of two blokes diving for crays on the FF and being checked out by a WP around 3 meters. This was yesterday apparently .

 Hello everyone,

This might be a dumb question but I am going to ask it anyway. I am confused about whether I can catch my bag limit of demersals and then also target pelagics. I can't find anywhere in the guides that speaks in plain English. Is this a common complaint and question?

 G'day all. Bit off topic but I'm thinking about a Colorado diesel ute. As well as general reliability issues, what would they like for towing a 2.5-3.0 tonne boat? Any thoughts appreciated. Ta, John.

 Congrats to the loose unit who tried to tow the mooring home. That made my day . Don't blame him mussels are pretty tasty

 A long shot but putting it out there I have a Raymarine 435I chartplotter (bought in 2005) that takes Navionics Chart Card CF Compact Flash that has been corrupted and wondering if anyone has one in captivity they have hidden away that I could get my hands on, as I said it's a long shot but worth a try.

 G'day all, 

First time posted long time lurker so finally created an account.

Heading to Exxy in a few days and a poster mentioned a good bait shop,  said to ask for Mick and they do deep drop bait packs.

Can anyone help me out with the shop name please

 Does anyone know the rules with jetstar on taking crays from perth to cairns

Hey Legends, just wondering what is the GO for most of us taking out new fishing buddies? 
I've been asking for them to bring $50 & some bait when heading out most the day and go half's in the catch
usually I'll have bait  & get some pies cooking in the pie oven during the day. 
be keen to hear your opinions and here is a vid of a few new fishing buddies that came out recently

Hi all, wanting to buy 4 octopus trigger traps. If you have any which you are no longer using and want to sell them I am happy to pay cash on collection and what you paid for them. Please get in touch.

 Stunning day which started off with a big red emp taken in sight of the boat by a huge tiger shark.  Wouldn't leave us alone so out to flat country in 90 metres where we cleaned up on cobia, snapper, robbos, pearl perch and red throat.

 Caught in 60 metres of water just off Steep 

 Left hillarys 4pm, straight into it with a pinky, then 2 tailor 57 cm on a pinky rig, had 2 fight a big sambo for them, then we caught 8 size pinkkys, keeping 4, back at the marina before dark, it was like a northern session

Manged to get out or a fish this week, first time out from Rocko in 2 years due to endless medical appointments, weather and of course, demersal bans.

But the stars finally aligned on Tuesday and the missus and I headed straight out to the 90 metre mark.

I had bagged out on the second drift, a pinky and a red snapper, and was giving the missus a rev up about her being fishless.

Next minute she was on, and managed to wrangle a big pinky from 90 metres, it went 79 cm and her PB.

F#%k me if she didn't follow it up with a bigger one just 1/2 an hour later - 84 cm.

All done and dusted by 9 am.

For the record my pinky only went 55 cm and the red slightly smaller ....

To prevent the risk of galvanic corrosion do outboard installers fit nylon washers on mounting bolts?
