  1. Seems like lithium is the go. @Another Wazza replaced his AGM with one and the lack of drain is phenomenal.
  2. Excellent read/story. I would love to replicate your yak sessions in the boat one day. Horse grassy had me envious for sure. I had a great time as usual hanging with you and the family. Pretty happy with my biggest flattie, too. What about the size of that dugong on the SW of the island the day of the 300 series recovery ?!
  3. The metal where you tie to could be bent, causing it to swim out to one side. Check that and try to make it straight, if it is bent.
  4. Good luck. Surely there's a flattie or two waiting at Hayes Inlet for you.
  5. We are currently running an annual comp. You're welcome to join in for the South Team. https://www.australianfishing.com.au/forum/topic/55045-suburbs-of-origin-2024-competition-1-january-2024-to-31january-2024/
  6. Welcome to the AFO forum, @Peter K. Plenty of friendly members here to interact with. What fish do you usually target with your lures ?
  7. I think your concern is warranted, re affecting the knot. There are different types of swivels that can be used other than the regular snap swivels. Hawaiian snap swivels, for example - https://www.anglerswarehouse.com.au/shogun-hawaiian-snap These will not unclip. Personally, I find it much quicker to just tie a new loop knot each time. Playing around with split rings is a pain for me.
  8. They sure do. Every time they pull you up for a look they check the life jackets thoroughly - both MSQ and Water Police. I have mine professionally serviced and certified and have had to provide the certificate to them on more than one occasion.
  9. That's a good plan. Way better than wanting to surf more. Haha
  10. Haha. Poor bugger. He mustn't have been watching closely enough. Sounds like a good feed tonight. ??
  11. You are forgiven. Haha Perhaps you could troll whilst surfing ??
  12. Sounds like a salt session at Mud Island. Still good to be out there.
  13. That's a big trip, but those islands look inviting and I take it the barra and jacks will be a target in the estuary ??
  14. Hey, tailor are a comp fish. Some ok sessions, but it seems you should be dropping some pots in.
  15. I suggest that would be 100% correct. haha
  16. Hey @Ross.warwick, would you like to join in the comp we're currently running ? -
  17. Thanks, Hamish. We were at the same area @charlie.hans.fishing and I fished when you were on @Old Scaley's boat last month.
  18. Fish at least 50 times. Land a big snapper on a lure/plastic. Get some good macks.
  19. You only get one short shot at life, so do more of what you love.
  20. Well, I headed out with that Northsider @benno573 for a sneaky session last night. Two entries to Benno, with a 49cm snapper and a 36cm breambo. I was fortunate enough to jag my PB flathead, too - 73.5cm.
  21. Welcome to the AFO forum, @Churchy. I'm glad to hear the hiatus is over ! You're moving to a beaut part of the World, too. Have you retired ?
  22. Good luck, but we don't have a grunter category, unfortunately. Maybe a flathead ?
  23. Amputee style. I'll put it on my key ring. Haha
  24. I forgot as well. Had to take the pics when at home.
