I've been fishing once in my life, but it is something that I want to get into (every time I drive over the bridge to Redcliffe GC I see a few guys dropping a line).
Anyone else into it? Any tips?

Have fished all my life. It can be just an addictive as GolfI am a fishing gear Ho, my last reel purchase was ----
There are lots of forums for Fishing, but do you have the time? ( I don't anymore
) Try Ausfish, Fishnet, Nuggetfishing
(Dave Downie's site) and Brisbane Fishing to name a few.
Any ideas on what type of fishing you want to do?
Getting back into it myself SMS, got myself some new gear to take out in my Kayak. I am going to learn how to do it with hard bodied lures and the like.

Been fishing all my life, since I was old enough for Dad to get me out in the boat.
We used to go in fishing comps etc, but now we just go out for a bit of fun every few months.
Personal highlights were catching a 37kg Southern Bluefin Tuna (1hr 45mins to get it in) hooking a Great White, only to have it tow us around 2kms before biting through 400lb wire trace and my first and only 10kg Snapper
Beach fishing is best![]()
Haven't done much ocean fishing myself, Been fishing rivers and dams forever. My parents would be fishing with me in a basinet beside them
Want to try the rocks at Point Perpendicular (mouth of jervis bay). Apparently you can catch marlin off the rocks at the end of summer there. That would be cool.

Caught this mackeral in the mid 70's on the edge of the reef off Possession Island.
147 fish in this pile: mostly coral trout and sweetlip off trunk reef between 1.00pm and 4.00pm (between two of us).

Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?
Caught it on a lure Eags, it came off the reef and took both our lures, mine held. Had it in the boat within 10 mins following one big run. Caught one almost two foot longer the following year off Forbes Island, north of Restoration Island. Hooked this horse on a mackeral spoon on piano wire and blind cord. It stopped the boat in its tracks and I only got it to the boat because I managed to anchor the line on a cleat and drowned it. Definately the scariest head on a fish I ever saw.

in newspaper and hot with chips

Sorry Shaun,
Fishing is far to good for any left handers and therefore the makers of all rods refuse to produce cacky handed gear...
I'm right handed.
Forum needs more banter.
I love fishing. I have a kayak that has rod holders in it and it is great too fish from.
I much prefer freshwater fishing compared to fishing in the salt, don't ask me why but the ocean doesn't seem as peaceful.
Sweetwater fishing is a good forum for information. The link is to a thread that I started for my first post asking for some information on some new rod. One bloke ended up giving me a good quality road and another bloke gave me a reel. They are a terrific bunch of blokes, similar to here.
You pull many lungfish out of the Mary River Zac ???
The first time I went fishing in the Mary I caught one. I only had light 6lb line and the thing went crazy. My pop who never went fishing got the bug after seeing that and now goes a couple of times a week.
