This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion but rock fishing really isn't that dangerous unless you're completely unaware of what it is you're getting yourself into. I've taken my 11yo stepson rock fishing dozens of times and the risk is only really as bad as you want to make it. There are an ...

Bloody hell. What a day to go fishing today mate!!!

Star 2.PNG On a day that mother Nature, did not behave. Out went a Fisherman, so bold and brave. To try his luck, at a place called Warneet. But it was that cold, the rain turned to sleet. He thought how crazy, this must be mad. So he packed his stuff, as the fishing was bad. But he went to Morning...

Hey guys, Thank you all for the kind words. I havne't really done any serious fishing for the last six months for a soon to be revealed purpose, so things like this actually help me to scratch that itch a little bit. I will try to respond to all the posts over the next week or so, i'm flying interna...

This response is an answer to a question about a budget of 3-400 for a beginners kingspin setup. I don...

Yeah right keep pushing to get more anglers but the piers are the same as they were 20 years ago ! I've sent many emails over the years that have fallen on deaf ears. Build new piers and enlarge lengthen existing piers is the best road ahead or stop pushing to get more fishing ! The new chum is auto...

Drew yet another blank at Sorrento pier this morning. Started at 4.50am, lasted until 7 ish, when more and more charter boats rocked up, and the cold was by that stage just the cherry on the cake. Cycled through a few colours, tried a couple of different areas on the pier, no joy. That's 5 or 6 tri...
