Thanks nucopia So are there any Canberra locals who want to do weekday trips?

Yeah thanks for that, I will look into that Also looking at tuena and shoalhaven river to cut my teeth into the sport Hoping to find some gem stones as a bonus to gold

Hi all New to the hobby (obsession or whatever it is lol) Live in Queanbeyan and looking for people who get free time on weekdays to go to local areas and have a dig around. Got the basics for panning and possibly looking at a detector soon Message me if you want to meet up with a noob for...

Hi all The kingfish have slowed down lately and we only managed one legal one which was stolen at the side of the boat by a pesky seal. The snapper have fired up nicely and we managed 3 over the 2kg mark with several pan sized ones too. Flathead were on the chew too when we did drifts over...

Hi mate That's about the only type of fishing I've never done; going deep for stuff like that and gemfish Ozpolitic site has some gps marks you can use to start with and try from there

Well the fish do come with less effort sometimes, but a frustrating pursuit sometimes too. Especially when you see them on your sounder but they refuse every gourmet offering you give them

Hi all The dirty water saw some interesting fishing. The baitfish mostly between snapper and tollgate islands. Plenty of slimys and a few tiny yakkas to be had. The kings around wasp island and the bommie just south were quiet with only a few undersized ones landed but the snapper were on...

Hi Hunter, I've heard of hill end and have always meant to visit one day. Will definitely hit you up sometime. I'll pack the camping gear but probably only when the weather isn't too cold (yes I'm in Canberra at the moment but I'm cold blooded and prefer the hot weather lol)

Want to get your mind blown? Look at zero point energy generators and some of the links it will take you to quantum physics and my favourite, quantum levitation I'm sure with some digging around you can find some cool ideas and experiments to do regarding energy For a start just check YouTube...

Exactly why I'm trying mogo. Cos it was the nearest place we could find that I could buy the basics from :Y: Called all the outdoor stores in Canberra and they didn't have anything. Detectaden were helpful on the phone so I'm going to part with some dollars there this weekend Thanks :D

Can also use Berkeley gulp shrimp wind fast with the rod tip held height to get the plastic to skip along the surface. They absolutely inhale them

Hahaha Find some 4 ounce snapper leads and I'll be happy to buy them by the kilo from you Use them for distance casting for snapper from the rocks or jewfish from the beach

Hi all No idea with digging for gold but super experienced saltwater fisho Most of my "spot x's" are between Batemans and nsw central coast, or Townsville area. Please feel free to ask for help with most species that call the ocean their home especially if you are land based and want some...
