position on board when paddling for a wave

[Grooter]

No sh.it you're a Victorian

Well why didn't you say so, this place needs more of them!

I take it you're based over Geelong way?

[Animal_Chin]

I have no problem with you at all mate.

As long as you turn right at the Torquay golf club and stay the fcuk away from 13th we will be friends forever!

I got no advice on board position other than this:

An old bloke once told me that when lying on your board (assuming its a short board) the entire board should be underwater. The nose should only poke up out of the water as you paddle and get forward movement.

Works for me I guess....

Hatchy, sometimes when I see Iggs post stuff like this and some of the bits he's dredged up about me and others, I seriously suspect he's a cyber stalker of the highest order.
We should be afraid, VERY afraid.

[mical]

Further to Iggy's post Breamfisherman, you might have to talk loudly when you approach the Hatch.

He'll probably be listening to Powderfinger on his iPod at max volume while he sips his cafe' grande' frappuccino from this little Barista he knows down the road who makes better coffee than anyone in Sydney.

Great idea Iggs, Hatchy's definitely the man for the job . . right on

When are we catching up for that surf Hatchy

So hang on let me get this straight : we have a part-time lake bream fisho from Vicco.

Mate paddling's the least of your problems.

[bombora]

Actually SS a big ol' Vicco lake-dwelling black bream is likely to crap over a yellowfin bream in the wash up northern NSW way _ unless the autumn north coast run has started early.
PS try a Gulp Alive three inch minnow or a four inch Squidgy Flickbait in one of the natural colours like pearl green, on a 3/8 once jighead (with a decent hook, other chunkier critters most likely to hammer them too) or lighter quarter once head if the wash ain't too strong.

thanks Bombora......I've seen piccies of those big gippsland black bream.
Chased 'em in the Sou-west rivers round Denmark and Walpole.

I'm using bigger shad-style squidgies with strong swimming action.....rather a chance of a schoolie or GT.....tailor tend to chew 'em to bits pretty quick though.

Don't worry about the black bream fellas, it's when we get these that I don't like living down my way . . they're everywhere.

[mustkillmulloway]

i prefer paddling with the fins in the water and on the waxed side

if howeva....it's small flat and boring....paddling on the fins up side can add some excitement

p.p.s i fu.cked up the quote....i blame bloody turtle

[tiger]

Breammaster hey. Who'd be proud to call themselves masters of those little rats of the sea. Maybe call yourself Poo-ey master, you can take that mantle off Fong.

Seriously, those little spiky cnut's of things can be caught on just about anything. Pffftt! Get back to me when your a barra master!

[Grooter]

iggy and mical

Fcuk you ya cnuts

mical definitely need to catch up one day mate, my back is stuffed at the moment so I'm still 4 or so weeks away from getting back in the water :?

[matt...]

^^^ and you're calling the "breammaster" weak as piss!!

YOU get back in the water you weak as piss,****. who hasn't surfed with a bad back.
harden up or we'll call ya a booger!

[Davros]

Breammaster, get a thicker longer board and dont paddle like an egg beater hooked up to a nuclear reactor for power.

Personally I'd say focus more on volume and width rather than length, but that's just me.

So would I but paddling ability has got to come into it as well because if it was as easy to paddle a shortie as it is a longboard boards over 8' would be as rare as hens teeth.

Maybe he needs a 7S Superfish, I hear they paddle like a longboard.

Now you're talking, and oh look Amazingly there's an ad for them just over

They'll improve your wave count!

YOU get back in the water you weak as piss, spinky sping spingity boo!!!. who hasn't surfed with a bad back.

I did surf with a bad back sunshine that's the bloody problem.

I made the problem worse to the point where I could barely stand up straight to walk after getting out of the water let alone do anything else like being able to drive or ride a train to work.

[nu boy]

Get a board with straighter rocker( no bannas ).
