hey guys i've been reading this thread with a lot of interest. i have just bought a 589 stabicraft and would love to give it a go. i've fished some deepish water, 180m, with a mate and caught bar cod snapper and kingies and i did that on a fin nor overhead jigging reel with 50lb braid and the fun wore off after a while although the pain in my body took a little longer to wear off i'm still not sure what setup to use. deck winches and electrics are dear as poison and the only option i could think of would be to put a lot of braid on my tyrnos and wack it in the rod holder although i don't know how long i would last on that setup. maybe a modified bicycle has anyone done or know of anyone who has done this type of fishing out of the south passage bar. i cant imagine it would be too much further out than say square path and looking at the seafloor maps it looks to be approx 30kms from the bar (rough guess) here is a useful link i found http://www.fishtrack.com/fishing-cha...seamount_65182 and you can go into the fishing charts section and it shows a few sea mounts off the coast and i found goodle earth gave a similar picture of the sea floor. does anyone here have and would be willing to share links to other charts with contour lines and depths etc. anyways i hope you guys have good luck and i will continue to put a plan into effect albeit slowly as funds allow. btw i saw there is a miya epoch on ebay thats up to $330 but it looks a bit flogged and deck winches start at $650 as far as i could see(alvey reef queen). and braid would prob be another $200 for 1000m of 200lb (ebay, prob crappy line)) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Miya-Epoc...item1e6efb5c77 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LR-BRAID-...item5adcb9369d http://shop.bluewater.net.au/p/56425...eef-queen.html anyways see ya later, oh yeah i caught this last night at peel and used about 9 litres of petrol so im still debating the cost/reward

this may wet the appetite, i love the bit where he's holding the line and you can see the fish taking the hooks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xUY9fAES1I oh yeah maybe we can get greg valentino on the job (his biceps actually did explode) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITG-IbHEYEE (1min26)

[captain rednut]

[Muddy Toes]
