I think it’s a great idea. Don’t give up on it just yet.

I imagine they would be expecting it the same time every day. Different fish come out of a night time.

Sounds like a good boat! Any pics?

Hamish, I’ve been thinking for a while when reading your reports that it isn’t all that safe you fishing by yourself in these isolated locations. You really should have someone else with you. It’s not your fault. There’s a lot of crazies out there these days. Always err on the side of caution, like you did today.

I’d grab them too, at that rate!

I hope they’re paying you well.

I’ve never heard of a texama thingy but it sounds good. Where do you buy them?

Bloody hell. You get around! Brisbane, Hervey Bay, Newcastle. And all in the same day.

Imagine the poor bastard who buys it trying to rig it up! Lol

I reckon buy it then contact the manufacturer and tell them your going public with it. Should at least get a free new rod out of it.

So. It’s not just me that stuffs everything up. I’m pretty sure Ed said something that I was replying to, but the site chose to not include it. Lol.

Mate. That’s pretty pathetic. Obviously no quality control whatsoever!

He just said the quality is not there any more since they moved manufacturing overseas. It’s a pity because I would love a new rod for reef fishing the bay.

Hey! I was taking it easy on you guys. You should see the list for when someone actually applied!

My mate at BCF said the live fibres are now made overseas and aren’t worth buying

Oh yes. Forgot that one.

Wabbits! I love Wabbits.

What can I say? I’m devastated!

Is it ever?

Aren’t they the same?

Does that mean you’re interested @benno573? You replied to my post?

I can’t see clearly but that looks a little bit under the number

Hi all, Just thought I’d put a wanted ad out there. Looking for a new best mate. The ideal applicant will meet all, or at least some, of the following qualities: 1. Retired, or rich enough to be able to go out fishing whenever they want to. Note, if you are mega rich you will score extra points under this selection criterion. 2. Willing to go out into Moreton Bay to find the elusive Spot X, or preferably Spot X’s, in winds up to at least 10-15 knots and, if **** happens and it changes to ‘Oh ****!’ or even ‘We’re ****ed’ be able and willing to save me and get me to shore safely. 3. Know everything about fishing, tackle, methods and any of that other ****. 4. Have a ‘Speed Boat’ and ‘C’ class licence and be of sober character when fishing, ready to drive the boat and car home when I have one or three too many drinks while out on the water. Note this happens quite often, and is the main reason I paid for both my sons to get their boat and JetSki licences. However, once home, it would be good if you are unsober of character and prepared to listen to my repertoire of classics dating backwards from today’s hits to those of the fifties, including Dean Martin, all the while replenishing my red wines on ice as needed. If you can get absolutely pissed along with me extra points will be awarded. 5 Preferable live on the Northside, or be prepared to travel long distances, so as not to put me to any effort. If you are my ideal applicant, I am prepared to give you a house key so that you can wake me when the boat is ready, fueled, trailer attached to the car, stubbies placed in the esky, ice placed on top and everything is ready and raring to go. 6. Know how to use a high pressure washer, clean fishing gear, reverse a trailer, drive a boat on and off a trailer, tie knots the names of which I can’t even pronounce, gaff fish when the ******** on the end of the rod lifts it’s head out of the water at precisely the wrong time, clean fish, cook fish.... Well you get the idea. 7. Just generally be a bloody good bloke. Or Blokette. Please reply on this thread if interested. cheers Greg

Where are you? You must be south of Queensland. Poor bastard.

No problem
