Re: What’s Your Fishing Resume?
I grew up in northern Vic and started fishing (bait) with my dad. I found native fish hard to come by back then in the late 70's and 80's. I spent a lot of time also biking it around the local channels chasing redfin and the occasional trout with lures. The good old days...the only lures I generally...

Re: Geelong and Surf Coast
Welcome to the site. Sounds like you are taking suitable steps to learn. The best advice I can give you....don't make the mistake many of us, including myself have made. That is, don't buy 10 times more fishing gear that you actually need!!!!
Cheers

Re: Shimano SLX DC baitcast under $350 what do you think?
............. I'd buy you a coffee to see that video! :-D With full brake, it's almost impossible to backlash a baitcast nowadays. But you wont get the distance and the smoothness/accuracy as much. I have never used normal baitcast reels on full brake. When you say it is impossible to backlash them...

I wish I had of taken a video of the Curado DC I used! Would not have been a very good marketing tool. Although I guess I could have edited out the crap bits to make it look good!

Re: Team Megabass.
I was at the store this morning for the 'unboxing' of some deliveries. One of the boxes was full of Vatalion lures. They are selling quite a few of these despite the fact that the fishing is slow. As I mentioned previously, they sell at Boats & More for $45 vs $60 at the local BCF! $45 is still a lo...

Re: Shimano SLX DC baitcast under $350 what do you think?
When the Curado DC arrived, a local tackle store had one set up on a Loomis rod. I did my best to 'birdnest' it and succeeded a few times! The 'DC' concept reduces the chance of error but does not eliminate it. That's the way I see it anywsy. Are you looking at buying one Seb?

Re: Media Release: 12 NEW PROJECTS FUNDED BY YOUR FISHING LICENCE FEES
We were at Snobs Creek hatchery today loading trout eggs into the Jordan-Scotty incubators. Jaala obviously needed a 'rent a crowd' for her announcement so we were it! Previously I have done well to avoid her during her visits to my work when she was the minister for ag. Anyway, she doesn't seem too...
