Cracking knobby FR especially land based in oz!

Well done Steve that is a crazy Snapper - and land based is next level
The consistent Westerlies meant the Beaches have turned on the tailor
I discovered the joy of converting op shop cutlery into metal slugs.
They cast further than Halcos and Knights , are stainless steel so will last and cost me about $1.50 each to make - including rings and hooks
And best of all catch heaps

Just got back from a week on K’gari. The place was alive! Had some memorable sessions on tailor using surface lures and bait. Here’s a few pics from one night session when we got 20+ fish from 45-64cm in an hour and kept 10. Great fishing!

That middle pic made me instantly hungry.

Winning all round AP.

agree, @zen, I detect cornflake crumbs in them thar morsels. what's the deal with kids not being allowed on K'gari/Fraser because of dingoes into the future.. is that a thing??

I saw something on the news about the mayor of Hervey Bay suggesting it. Haven’t been there since 2019 and the wongari (dingos) were far more visible and bold than I remember. Like any wild place it’s the parents’ responsibility to educate and supervise their children on the island. Most people do the right thing.

That's pretty hectic, AP, we are a nation of sea-monsters and stingy-little-bitey-shits..
to have a sth hemisphere cougar-alert, or bear-scare equivalent, puts a new mammal spin on things.

The wongari are very bold these days.
Suggestion is that families with kids should be made to camp in fenced camp zones.
A lot of time is spent away from camp when on Kgari.
Awesome haul Andy P.

Those fish are in pretty good condition by the look of it.

Re the kids on K'gari thing..
I heard something about anyone camping with kids may be required to stay in a campground with dingo proof fencing soon. Don't know if it'll get through though.
Edit, what seeds said. ;)
