Re: SPs whiting Barwon heads

What time of the year will they take surface lures?
I've been told this only works in summer?

Re: Bilge pump installation on my Outback

Rob

That looks a great job.
Is there any worry about green water going down the outlet and potentially triggering your pump?
I would have thought a top hat of some type or a u-bend pipe in the outlet might stop this?

Clearly it's sad to see anyone selling their yaks, much less you Dig!
Hope you are not giving up fishing altogether?

Re: Adding a tackle storage hatch to an Outback

Finally got out to test my new hatch, and I must say it matched my expectations :yahoo: I could carry one or two large(ish) tackle boxes, plus two or three small boxes, plus my pliers and leader spools. There was a little water in the bottom of the bucket when I packed up, but I think that was a spl...

Rod

Congrats on the win, and good luck with the motor.

Re: Adding a tackle storage hatch to an Outback

You could have fitted the hatch out of the new pro anglers with the pivoting tackle boxes, I've seen it done on one of the US sites to an outback Yes I could, but the cost might have been a bit prohibitive. The price for these bits was $55 for the hatch (Discount Seamart in Elizabeth St) and $16 fo...

Adding a tackle storage hatch to an Outback

I’ve had this ’06 Outback for about four years now, and although it’s a great fishing platform there have always been a couple of niggling problems. When compared to the later models, it lacks places to store things like tackle and small stuff where it is easy to get at and protected from water from...
