Re: Flurocarbon vs Mono Leader

Personally I’d be running the 20lb mono over the 30lb fluro. Especially if casting distance is a factor.

Re: Boat fuel

Disconnect fuel hose from the outboard. Poke the hose out the bung hole. Pump it out into Jerry cans. Stick 10-20l at a time into your petrol car each fillup if you have one and use it up that way.

Re: roof racks

Those cage style ones are only good if strapping little things down.

Personally I’d go the twin rail. Less obtrusive. Less wind noise. Probably better economy and can still put long things on it.

Re: what are your thoughts on introduced 'pest' species?

Probably going to be an unpopular opinion but I rarely kill carp when I catch them. For a couple reasons. 1.

Great report Ducky

That dark EP on your original post is awesome know that estuary well..
Yeah that was a good one. Belted a cast deep up a feeder under some cover and it was taken after the first wind. Love it when a risky cast pays off.

Re: RIP Snapper Snatcher

This really hit hard. I didn't personally know George but his achievements were always something I looked up to early on, particularly in the species comp. RIP and best wishes to friends and family I'm in the same boat. Met him fishing out and about half a dozen times. Sold and bought a bit of stuf...
