I've been dying to get this report up and I finally have. This is certainly the most successful trip I've had and I can't possibly see myself matching it for a very long time if ever. There weren't any fish of size just the number, how I was catching them, the conditions of the water and some of the things that I seen will make this a memory impossible to forget.

This isn't a step by step report like I'd normally do, but more of a recount on the techniques, tactics, telling of some of the great things that went on with a bit of a storyline added to explain it a bit more.

Here's a teaser pic which would have to be one of my favourite pics I've ever taken.


And the report, pictures and a video can be found following this link: A Day I'll Never Forget

( http://codonthecast.wordpress.com/20...-never-forget/ )

I really hope you guys can enjoy reading it or even having a browse through. I certainly enjoyed doing it!

The biggest was around 140cm. The problem is we are debating on the species. I say bronze whalers and my mate says Bull.

Any info would be great..

Hi guys
Ive got a little 3.3m savage and its a little unstable with a coupla people in it when your casting or trying to retrieve a fish so Ive just ordered some floaties
for it.
I bought 2 meter airofloat pods to bolt on the side of the boat and was wondering if anybody has had anything to do with them and are they worth the 600 bucks.
I know I should have asked the question before I bought them but I am keen to see if they work.
Im at work at the moment but when I get home ill bolt them up and post a pic on here ]]> harold4964 http://www.tacklebox.com.au/forums/equipment-accesories-maintenance/15959-stability.html Where do i go ? http://www.tacklebox.com.au/forums/fishing-general-chat/15958-where-do-i-go.html Wed, 16 May 2012 12:41:06 GMT Hi guys i'm rather new to this site so please excuse any mistakes.

I live in Victoria and wondering about going fishing of Portland to try and catch a Tuna.
Interested in peoples good experiences with charter boats or is there people looking for a crew on their boats.
I have bought a small boat myself but still learning and would be good to go out with more experienced people.

Today we took the kids out for abit of fun. We went to the 4th crossing of Summer Hill Creek (for those who know Orange). There were 2 other blokes doing some fishing out there, looked like they had no luck. We fished for a while, with no luck as well. Anyway, beautiful little creek and a fun afternoon.
I would love to hear from others in Orange, feel free to get in contact.

I am keen to upgrade to a combo unit and after reading numerous threads on similar topics have virtually decided on a lowrance hds 5 combo. In the future the idea of running two combos, one as sounder/one as plotter, appeals to me (for extra backup if one fails) for not a lot more outlay. The x51's transducer is an airmar inhull style one with the rubber visible under the hull. My queries are:
1. Can this transducer be connected to the hds?
2. What are fellow boater/fisher opinions on flush mounting versus gimbal mounting? The flush mounted looks smart, but I like the idea of removing the gimbal mounted when not in use.
Thanks in advance.
