rayke1938 got a reaction from Gad in Prawns White Spot Disease Outbreak
Seems to be a lot of so called experts offering different opinions. Saw matt Campbell saying no evidence of white spot ever being in crabs on another forum. DR Ben Diggles also had something to say hard to know who to believe but better being prudent.

The secret is out - he is worried if someone else baits up with a banana in his boat they will catch a bigger unicorn!

rayke1938 got a reaction from jimee in DIY Shrimp traps.
We then have to attach the lid using the shock cord and another clip made from the copper wire.
Cut the shock cord slightly longer than the height of the pot and tie a double knot in one end and thread it through the frisby then the clip and back through the frisby and tie another knot.
Then melt a hole in the other end of the pot placing the hole at 90 degrees to the weights and take another length of shock cord and knotit and thread it up through the pot and through the hole on the lid.
Pull this cord as tight as possible and tie a knot in it and trim it off.
Completed pot.
I burn my name ( Pity I cannot spell it) into the pot with the soldering iron .I also burn my name into the float ( Helps preventing people thinking that they are their pots.)
I have lost a couple of photos where I initially attach the mesh to the frisbee so I will take some more tomorrow night and update.
I did make some pots out of galvanised gutterguard and they were a lot easier to make but they are starting to rust out after only 2 months in NPD, If you can find some 250 mil begonia saucers they are a lot easier to make up and use less gutterguard and catch just as well as the larger frisbee pots.
Happy shrimping.

After several different types I think that I have finally got it right.
What do you need.
Cable ties - Bunnings or cheaper still on ebay.
Plastic gutter guard 180mm wide Bunnings whites super gutter guard 180mm X 8 m about $7 or cheaper at Masters.
Ideally 25mm begonia pot saucers from K mart $1 each but they havent had any for months.so I use Frisbees from K mart $1 each.
Bundle of
tent pole shock cord $3 from K mart
around 12 gauge gi soft drawn fencing wire. I scrounged some from a farmer mate.
Empty 2l soft drink bottled.
I use soft copper wire for the hooks and attaching the tie rope. You should be able to scrounge some from a sparky or auto electrician
First step is to cut the gutterguard to length. Just mark the edge of the frisbee with a felt pen and place a mark on a length of wood and roll the frisbee Add an inch to allow for an overlap join.
Similarly cut the fencing wire to length.
The fencing wire has to be formed into a circle and the neck of a 9kg gas bottle is ideal for the frisbee size and if you are fortunate to find some 25mm begonia saucers an upturned flower pot is good.
Then cut a hole in the frisbee slightly smaller in diameter than the soft drink bottle.
Next step is to cut the neck off the soft drink bottle ( I find scissors best leave the screw top on the bottle and it is easier to make the initial plunge into the bottle}
Then using a small tipped soldering iron melt 4 holes around the hole in the frisbee and corresponding holes in the drink neck and cable tie the neck to the frisbee,( Do this in well ventilated area because of the burning plastic fumes.) You could drill the holes but it is much faster with the soldering iron.
You will note that I have also made holes around the circumference of the frisbee.You only make the holes on one of the frisbees.
Next step is to join 2 lengths of the gutterguard side by side.
Just tie them together loosely untill the whole lengthy is complete and then flip them out and then tighten up the cable ties.
The co joined gutterguard is then cabletied to the frisbee and the top is pulled in so that the diameter is slightly smalletr then the outher end that is secured to the frisbee and one of bthe fencing wire circles is cable tied to the top
nAnd then the second wire circle is tied in to the centre of the pot
I then insert a short rod into the top of the trap to attact the clop that I tie the rope to.
Clip is made from the copper wire mentioned earlier.
I then place some weight opposite the rope attach point. ( Anything heavy to take the pot to the bottom quickly.( I use old galvanised bolts )
Next step is to burn 3 holes in the other frisby that is going to be the other end of the pot.

rayke1938 got a reaction from Gad in New Sip Arrangements.qld From 1/7/16
Thought I would try and collate info on the new SIP permits.In the one thread.
Fishing in stocked impoundments
Download a larger map (PDF, 1.86MB) of Queensland showing the locations of SIPS impoundments or view an interactive map of Queensland showing SIPS impoundments and agents.
Before you go fishing in a Queensland impoundment (dam or weir), check the list below to see if you need to purchase a Stocked Impoundment Permit (SIP).
There are 63 stocked impoundments in the state where a SIP is required to fish.
The permit covers access to all 63 impoundments and allows you to fish with recreational fishing lines only.
About the permit
Permits cost:
$10.00 per week $50.00 per year $36.00 per year if you are entitled to a discount* * You are entitled to a discount if you have a Queensland Government Seniors Card, Pensioner Concession Card, Health Care Card or a Repatriation Health Care Card (Gold Card).
All persons over the age of 18 years must hold a permit when fishing in SIPS impoundments. Children and teenagers under 18 years do not require a permit to fish in SIPS impoundments.
You must carry your permit (digital email, digital sms, paper receipt) with you when fishing in a stocked impoundment and produce it on request by QBFP.

Note my personal preference is to purchase from one of sub agents and give them some support for their past support. I wonder if they now will get a commission as I am certain that Australia post will not be doing it for free.

Chairman - Ian Jeffers
jeffersi@yahoo.com.au
The recreational use of North Pine Dam is still under review by SEQ water ( Ongoing for last 3 years) there is a proposal to allow kayak fishing but before this can happen there will need to be considerable infrastructure such as access roads,parking areas and toilets provided.
SEQ water have already stated that all watercraft will not be allowed in any of the existing areas near the dam wall such as Bullockys etc as they are located too close to the water intake areas.
In the meantime boating and sailing access is available via Lake Sampsonvale Water Sports Assn. ( NO fishing allowed in their area) Boating ( Electric and paddle only) provided via PRFMA boating access scheme. ( Currently no new permits available with a new round available after 15th August http://www.prfma.com.au/boating-access-scheme.

The recreational use of North Pine Dam is still under review by SEQ water ( Ongoing for last 3 years) there is a proposal to allow kayak fishing but before this can happen there will need to be considerable infrastructure such as access roads,parking areas and toilets provided.
SEQ water have already stated that all watercraft will not be allowed in any of the existing areas near the dam wall such as Bullockys etc as they are located too close to the water intake areas.
In the meantime boating and sailing access is available via Lake Sampsonvale Water Sports Assn. ( NO fishing allowed in their area) Boating ( Electric and paddle only) provided via PRFMA boating access scheme. ( Currently no new permits available with a new round available after 15th August http://www.prfma.com.au/boating-access-scheme.

The recreational use of North Pine Dam is still under review by SEQ water ( Ongoing for last 3 years) there is a proposal to allow kayak fishing but before this can happen there will need to be considerable infrastructure such as access roads,parking areas and toilets provided.
SEQ water have already stated that all watercraft will not be allowed in any of the existing areas near the dam wall such as Bullockys etc as they are located too close to the water intake areas.
In the meantime boating and sailing access is available via Lake Sampsonvale Water Sports Assn. ( NO fishing allowed in their area) Boating ( Electric and paddle only) provided via PRFMA boating access scheme. ( Currently no new permits available with a new round available after 15th August http://www.prfma.com.au/boating-access-scheme.

rayke1938 got a reaction from Angus in New Sip Arrangements.qld From 1/7/16
Thought I would try and collate info on the new SIP permits.In the one thread.
Fishing in stocked impoundments
Download a larger map (PDF, 1.86MB) of Queensland showing the locations of SIPS impoundments or view an interactive map of Queensland showing SIPS impoundments and agents.
Before you go fishing in a Queensland impoundment (dam or weir), check the list below to see if you need to purchase a Stocked Impoundment Permit (SIP).
There are 63 stocked impoundments in the state where a SIP is required to fish.
The permit covers access to all 63 impoundments and allows you to fish with recreational fishing lines only.
About the permit
Permits cost:
$10.00 per week $50.00 per year $36.00 per year if you are entitled to a discount* * You are entitled to a discount if you have a Queensland Government Seniors Card, Pensioner Concession Card, Health Care Card or a Repatriation Health Care Card (Gold Card).
All persons over the age of 18 years must hold a permit when fishing in SIPS impoundments. Children and teenagers under 18 years do not require a permit to fish in SIPS impoundments.
You must carry your permit (digital email, digital sms, paper receipt) with you when fishing in a stocked impoundment and produce it on request by QBFP.
Digital permits
No need to print out your permit. A digital permit will instantly be emailed and/or sms to you when a permit is purchased online, at selected sub-agent outlets and over the phone.
A digital permit will also be emailed within 24 hours of purchase when a permit is purchased over the counter via Australia Post outlets.
Purchase a permit
A SIP can be purchased:
online over the counter at Queensland and selected NSW Australia Post outlets at selected sub-agent outlets throughout the state. via phone on 1300 575 359 (permit purchases only, for general SIPS enquiries phone 13 25 23). Funds raised by stocked impoundment permits
Impoundments are 'put, grow and take' fisheries where most stocked species will not reproduce. This means the impoundments need to be stocked regularly.
The money anglers pay for their stocked impoundment permits goes towards enhancing recreational fishing in stocked impoundments and management of the scheme.
The following financial summaries provide details about permit sales, the scheme’s budget and how the funds available for fish stocking were allocated for the financial year:
List of places where you can purchase a permit.
Stocked Impoundment Permit (SIP) agents
You can purchase your Stocked Impoundment Permit directly from QLD Australia Post outlets, selected Northern NSW Australia Post outlets and selected sub-agents.

Going by the catch card I think he got 3 or 4 over 50s all in a yak within 1/2 k of the ramp.

rayke1938 reacted to basshunter1987 in A Little Tale Of A Big Bass
Here's a little fishing tale of a big North Pine Dam bass.
In August 2012, Dennis (@Dinodadog) recorded a new PB for himself when he captured quite a sizeable bass. This fish was huge, and fell only just short of the magical 60cm mark, coming in at 58.5cm. Being this size, the bass was probably quite old, maybe even 15 years or more. Adding to this, the fish had at some point been captured at least once before, as it had an old algae encrusted tag stuck in its back. Unfortuately though, there were no records of this tag. Since that day, on almost every trip out to the dam, I wonder where that bass is, and hope that someday we'll see it again. I mean, it would surely be 60cm by now!
Well, skip forward to June 2016. Another fisherman by the name of Charlie was out on the dam hunting a big bass himself. Charlie was currently enjoying greatest month of his fishing life, nailing a few whoppers and it would be fair to say he was in great form! He hooked and landed the biggest bass he'll see for a long time, laid it out on the brag mat, and up comes a new PB of 58cm. Charlie, absolutely thrilled, also notices this fish has a crusty old tag in its back. The details are sent in to Suntag, and back come the results that link these two very lucky fisherman. Charlie and Dennis, both recaptured the very same bass four years apart. The fish had not grown one bit! The very slight difference in measurement can be explained by small variations in measuring devices, or possibly that the bass was in fat winter condition when Dennis caught it, and a bit slimmer (and even older) when Charlie found it.
So, if you're hoping to see that whopper you caught again one day, it is very possible! Catch and release, so someone else can land the big one!

rayke1938 got a reaction from Drop Bear in Tingalpa Reservoir: What Are The Facts
Anyone remember tv parody called Yes Minister" or back further still to radio character greenbottle. Well they ball pale into insignificance to this.
From memory Des Charles ( I think) put a proposal to the Redlands council to establish a fishery in the dam and asked for rights to run a charter business there. This would have been in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
The and as well up till the dam was taken over by SEQ water the council have been opposed to ny on water or even waterside use of the dam.
I have correspondence going back around 10 years with the council and the answer has been a simple NO.
During the Newman government we had plenty of promises /press releases but no significant progress.
My local counciller and state MP both basically said not in my electorate go away.
I could not even get support from the council or state members ( Dam is bounded by 2 state electorates) to call a meeting to form a stocking group.
Then we have change of government so back to square one.
SEQ water past masters of passing the buck and delay tactics.
A review of the recreational use of the dam just keeps being delayed for various reasons.
I realise that there are major issues with the dam wall that are taking a long time to resolve but to my mind that in itself is a good reason to complete the review and establish some infrastructure such as a ramp whilst the dam is at record low levels.
Same reason that a stocking group could be formed and stocking of bass could be established.
Anyone wanting to see a bit of the latest saga just google leslie Harrison dam and read some of the articles.

http://www.couriermail.com.au/questnews/southeast/leslie-harrison-dam-a-no-go-zone-for-canoes-after-seqwater-pulls-the-pl
The ball is now with SEQ Water and good luck to anyone who wants to kick it along as my head is too sore from banging it against the bureaucratic brick wall.
Cheers
