Simple physics....check "moments" and "fulcrums" and see how these apply on fishing.

That's probably when you were soaking bait and saw birds diving. Lol. I havent seen you or any of your photos using 13' spinning.DougieK wrote:

Re: Gunnamayhem
Nice fish everyone, especially that huge salmon. This concept of fishing is foreign to me, but watching threads like these over the years are definitely building the interest up.

I snaffled this one from the Phillip Island rocks a few years ago. My PB at the time - 74.5cm. Didn't manage to weigh it.

They were still there this morning, 25 between basti and I on a mixture of slugs and topwater plugs. Some absolute horses in the mix too.
