Re: New boat option

So, from what I can make out on this, you'll be looking at around 20k boat and there trailer, plus motor, say 10 ish. ???? I think there are better options out there rather than sinking 30k into this set up, personally.... I like the plastic fantastics, but for 30K, you could get a seriously rebuil...

Re: Teen reels in 135-kilogram tuna in waters off Mornington Peninsula

Re: getting tackle ready

Who else spends un godly hours, stripping, cleaning and going over all your tackle, in readiness for the pending season's fishing. It's time to thin the stable down me thinks, far to many rod and reel set ups, with the lie that all are needed for that " specific" purpose. Anyways, I'm all set, just...
