Because north islanders have sensitive feelings! And a disturbing fasanation for sheep!

yea man i agree

if you got a good berley trail you can pull tons of kahawai out of if off the surface using softbaits if the snapper are slow to come on

So I handed over a wad of cash today.
Nothing like a bit of retail therapy.







Spooled with 10pound 8 strand and got some 20p flourocarbon for trace.

Got a heap of baits in the mail box thanks to @stingray so I am ready to go as soon as I can teach myself to tie a PR knot.

How far ahead do you guys usually cast?
I tied a 1oz hook hook to the braid and gave it a flick at work and it went about 4 times further than I was expecting and instead of landing in the carpark next door it went over the apex of the roof of the big building before i shut the bail!!

Caught the gutter on the retreive and just like that I had lost my first hook without even wetting a line.

Don't think I have seen a baitrunner type reel used for SB fishing before.
PR is a goody, but I find a back to back uni knot does the job for me.

The idea being it is useful for more than just soft baiting.

Could be worse, you could be English.

Whoops no offence meant Pengy, just something Scouser said the other day.

On hearing the news tonight, I cooked up London pride bangers and madh, washed down with Youngs London Gold

Actually just looked at ghe albright and the one i tie is slightly different.

Make a loop in the fluro trace, squash the loop so the bend is nice and sharp. Double the braid and lick it to make it like one, good length to get you going, then put the braid through the loop in the mono and go past a bit, start wrapping the loop with the braid, try keep it laying even as you come back toward the fluro loop, then poke the braid vack yhrough the fluro loop and pull up, slowly does it as the knot tightens onto yhe fluro loop. Easy

The pr wasnt actually that difficult tho while watching utube and it is a sexy slim knot for threw the guides, be a different story on board and wanting the line back in the water pronto tho.

Il give Big Blue a plug here too.
