Nope, was refering to Anthony. And I beleive he has mentiond surface poppers, (halco roosters), as opposed to surf poppers..a source of much confusion

haha tackleberry, stemetil is more of a vertigo medication but you are right, i can usually go on a boat on a flat day if i use phenergan or metoclopramide but the side effect is you get so drowsy you end up napping for half the trip.

Cheers for all the tips Basti, 4liters, Bar002811, poodoo and tackleberry and for the amazing PM CarlG!!

Ill grab some heavier 50-60gram lures for the extra casting distance as a few of you have mentioned and give it a go in a few weeks when ive got a free weekend (sounds like its been a bit quiet lately based on your posts) and when there is a nice run in tide with sunset/sundown.

Cant express enough gratitude for the support guys! Hope to see you all down there one day!

I take travelcalm (no idea what the active ingredient is) when I go offshore on the yak and it's fine as far as drowsiness goes. It's got a bit of caffeine in it which might make a difference compared to the unadulterated stuff you guys have access to. Now I take one the night before and one before I start setting up the yak and I haven't felt crook once (thanks Scott for the tip!).

Anyway, good luck down at the Gun.
