Absolute disaster.
It'll be months before sandbanks re-organise after this battering.
I'm blaming Braithy.

the (replaced) middle treble kept pulling through the body of the lure.
That has happened to me too on those cheap lures.
Normally I replace them or lose them after a few fish.
Better than losing a twenty dollar lure.
At five bucks a throw it's a good deal.

Re: Swell drought's about to end
haven't seen vibrotails for years.
Make sure you retrofit the trebles and split rings on the cheap lures.
But otherwise they work unreal.

Re: Swell drought's about to end
The shallow running ones (jabiru jerkbait) : tailor and trevally.
The deep diving ones (daintree diver) : tailor, trevally and jewfish.
Did you grab a few?

Re: Swell drought's about to end
Even though the new found passion for jewfishing has enabled me to see this in a different, more positive light I still like walking up the hill and shaking my fist at the weather gods. Bluewater: gone. Sandbanks: Gone. A six month rebuild after the June Fiji bank-buster gone in one night. A coast h...

Re: Swell drought's about to end
Just went jewfishing off the end of North Wall. About 4-6ft of washing machine short period stormsurf. I expect that will get into the 10 ft+ range through tomorrow as the tropical low continues south and the band of slow moving gales tracks south of the QLD border. Was blowing 30kts+ off the end of...

Re: my prediction for summer
we might be spared here and if the axis of that low drifts south of us at the same time as the NZ swell hits then BAM.....6-8ft of E swell with light W winds.

Re: my prediction for summer
I'd take all those model runs with a grain of salt.
esp after the Freda freak-out.
they are all guilt now until proven innocent.
no doubt something will spin up along the monsoon trough as the deep layer NW winds migrate across from Indonesian longitudes.

Re: Hawaii forecast - calling all forecast nuts
Natho, you going back to Hawaii this season?
Or have you already been.
If so, would you consider bringing back a gopro for me if I paid you upfront?

Re: September suggestions - not Indo
Regarding Tahiti - I seem to remember a couple of pensions and resorts that maybe Nick mentioned when Reg was on a holiday search. Cant find the thread with the search function. I found those places for Reg on Moorea. I couldn't recommend it highly enough. Just once in your life, you should see Tah...

My wife was like: "this guy was just standing at the front door, yelling....hooroo...."
Home now.
I had the phone with me, you weirdo.
