Npz man, either way i know you'll have a great and relaxing time! ps there are alot of chicks walking around in bikinis so you have some eye candy to check out.

kings are out afternoon and i guess at night too.

WIN! :D

im really keen to catch a king now!

would any other live bait work? im guessing a popper would work too as it does the flailing/dying fish splashing on the water

ash, i recomend gettin back into it. nothing like having that reel scream while you scramble to grab it LOL

im gona try johnny's spot if the weathers good :P

have you fished lorne pier? theres some massive fish there. one time, i hooked onto a little salmon and out of nowhere a 45cm long barracuda just nailed it.

was hard for an 8 year old kid to reel in but ill never forget it

okzzz i just came back from schnapper point. awesome spot... nice wimmenz :down:

BUT!

no even a bite!

it was dead quiet the most iv'e seen caught was just a couple of trev's

i caught a star fish tho....

i eventually got so fed up that i put a jig head on a big ass hook to try and jig for the kingfish..

nothing :D

Anymore hotspots guys :) I know its a old post but saves me from typing up another one :)

I've tried under the west gate Williamstown side last week. Caught about 3 brim off shrimps but you cant eat the fish from there I've heard, but not worth it lol. Don't think theres anything decent there.

Also tried Werribee South off the boat pier not even a bite.

Also tired schnapper point caught a little banjo.

Best luck we've had so far is in rye off the boat thou. Caught about 10 flatheads and about 5 banjo's in about 1 hour. Good fun.

Also barwon heads off the beach caught a few small whiting. Nothing to brag about :) ....

Please someone guide me to a good spot cause im sick of catching nothing lol.... Also what bait you used would be great......

Saltwater/ Freshwater doesnt bother me.

Cheers!!! :D

I used to go fishing to Colac back when it was more then just a puddle,

It was good catching eels and big carp there, used to be up all night catching them cause they would bite like crazy durring the night

There would be other people there fishing for eels as well and all through the night it will just be the sound of constant reeling of the fish

now that it dried up a lot, i haven't been fishing for 2 years or so

what are you guys catching?

im yet to catch a pinky/snapper from land =/

might head up to elwood on firday or saturday and spend an all nighter there.

my uncle got a 1.5kg pinky off the rocks and surf

i used to go fiching heaps.

one of my fave spots was the pier in corio bay

cought many pinkies there

Where's good to fish on great ocean rd? Trying to decide between Warrnambool surf fishing vs Port Campbell, Apollo bay or Lorne pier fishing. Some estuaries are also good along GOR? I'm lazy so I like lure fishing - can't be assed buying bait and keeping it fresh. What do people recommend? I've heard raiders are good for aussie salmon. I really don't mind what I catch, as long as it's edible. Thanks.

forgot what beach but theres a beach on the GOR, where the river meets the ocean and it only meets at high tide

catch small salmon there and keep them alive in a bucket. when its dark. hook then thru the jaw or tail and throw them back into the water. loose drag, rod holder and WAIT.. should be able to snag a smallish shark or mulloway

This sounds weird but in Docklands you can catch some pinkies and garfish with surprising consistency. Very weird considering its basically in the middle of the CBD but honestly have a go.

Otherwise I found the nameless creeks and rivers in diamond creek/warrandyte area are very good for eel fishing in the middle of the night from 12 to 5am.

Only problem is that you have to walk through some light bush to get to the river most of the time (no more than 100m off the "track") and at night it can get very Blair Witch project so I dont usually go unless i have a group of at least 5 hahahahaha

bait for eels - go to safeway and buy the nastiest most revolting dog food (the ones in the freezer) you can find. The eels love it. Wear gloves.

    • Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on 
    • You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump. 
    • Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
    • Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
