Fisherman Game Pliers, or maybe Accurate
Trailcraft 610 Centre Cab
More Poppers....
More Stickbaits....
Phew, that should do.....

Great topic.
I am after a reel to match my WV80XH and some full scale poppers to lob off them. Probably the fusilier, pink and white and cherry head colours fom his max carnage range.
I still cant decide between stella and saltiga...
-
10-15 knots of prime wind and 70 kegs of GT.
-
Great topic.

I'd like a 20+Kg GT from my local waters,(Northern NSW).........if I could just stop targeting kings.
Oh and half a dozen carpenter Gammas........I can dream.

why's that Mick?
-
I need a stickbait rod, so probably a Carpenter TBL 711/35 and a Stella SW10000XG. Wouldn't mind some sea frogs too ;D
-
I still want a coral viper but i can't see that happening in the near future.
Jay, slightly off the topic but why is there such a cult following of sea frogs?
-
I just want to go fishing!

I just want to go fishing!
Me too!
Last time was early December :( - looking forward to The Andamans 1-8 March. :)
-
WOW some of you guys want some serious gear, best of luck to you all.
Voltsy go for the Saltiga, much better reel, end of story!!!
Brandon don't you get enough fishing in? you are always going fishing. Unless the weather turns bad.
Jay there are plenty of TBL711/35RF's around so it shouldn't be that hard to get 1, but the sea frogs well that is a different story.
Personally i would like some rain to put out these fires that are way to close to my house, but that isn't going to happen soon enough, fires will be going for atleast another few weeks, just hope the wind doesn't change direction to soon. that would spell real trouble for myself, wife, kids, & all my fishing gear. Now that would be a disaster!!!!!!!!
Please someone do a rain dance............

Hey Matt,
I know of a near brand new condition ( 10/10 ) thats going for $575 USD plus shipping ( $775 USD at PLAT ) if you're looking for one seriously.....
Its obviously in the US, with a great guy who is a solid seller, and if he says rod is 10/10, its 10/10....
He's upgrading to another rod as he won one so has no need for the TN....
Let me know and I'll put you in touch with him.
Cheers
Andre

I want great weather for Bugatti in 7 days time and a couple of nice GT's. I have been coached by the master for about the last 2 months,now all i need to do is catch one.
I'll will also take a contender. I would then feel alittle more confident to attempt the Break Sea Straight run in 4 weeks time but i to cant see that happening. Will have to settle for fishing from the beach at the cape. You never know
