Seaweed giving me grief
Submitted by Trousersnake on Tue, 2010-05-18 10:10
Ok dudes how tha f**k do I deal with this sea weed situation? Tha last few times I have hit up my local I am gettn hammered by seaweed!! It is causing havoc with my big beach rod set up with a running sinker and gang hooks. I am just catchn shit loads of weed with my smaller whiting set up as well. Both rods same result! Is it a time of year thing? I was just starting to see positive results as tha summer was ending and now I think I'm doin something wrong. I tried throwing out a ganged mulie with no weight but found that it was just being brought in with tha swell and weed. I have also tried hitting tha top with lures and fluro but tha water seems a bit murky and I'm wondering if visibility is zero! Time for a beer!

I enjoyed it there. So fishing spots are also like woman! After a while you need to change them!

You need to keep the bad
You need to keep the bad language down too trousersnake, this very much a forum for all fisho mums, dad's, kids and everything in between, so we don't need to see this stuff on here. Time and place for everything.

either move spots or find
either move spots or find the edge of seaweed and clean water as this can be productive

Seaweed
Think you have got problems! Try living in Geraldton and fish after a big swell.
Find a long rod with beach spike, 7 oz star sinker, gang hooks, slab of mullet.
Ancher the sinker to the bottom, keep line tight, and dont move until you have hopefully got a fish on the end.
