Post by chris srsc » Mon Sep 26, 2016 9:22 pm

how do you deal with them?
one caught half a pillie in the air and with the weight of the sinker got tangled in the line..
bit over the way they stay when cubing too but guess thats part of the deal

LOL :)

They can be a pain.

An even bigger PITA is when a flock of mutton birds finds you.

It amazes me how they can swim down 20 mtrs to grab your baits. Wait until you have an angry albatross in the boat which you are trying to untangle though, thats even worse

Catch one. Tie something to its leg. Let it go and watch the rest of the seagulls chase the poor bugger to the ends of the world. All seagulls will be gone in less than 10 seconds.

Ah, no. We shouldn't be advocating any such activities with wildlife while out fishing.

I agree that is why i dont use hooks while fishing. I dont want to see any wild life getting hurt. I also dont lift fish out of the water as it has similar effect as a human being under water... cant breathe****gasps****
