Shovelnose shark

Sun, 2011-01-09 19:16

I was on the other side of the break wall at woodies in about 2m of water fishing for squid a couple of days ago and a huge shovelnose swam under us at some serious speed, we must have scared it.  It would have been 3 metres long.

i think thats why i have

Mon, 2011-01-10 12:12

i think thats why i have never gotten into ballooning, pretty limited in terms of spots/conditions and also seem to miss a heap of hookups, or maybe thats just me not doing it right?

Have never fished woodies as I keep hearing about trouble/idiots there. Is there anywhere to secure a rod holder, like maybe strap it onto something? not necessary on the ballooning side but where i could slide a bait deep then sit back with the rod in the holder? Also, if you manage to get a shark to the side of the jetty what are the chances of being able to walk it down to the shore and land it there instead of gaffing it?


cheers guys

yea the blue macks are

Mon, 2011-01-10 12:59

yea the blue macks are getting pretty hammered by crabs. what i try and do is get some squid cut them open so they are like sheets and wrap them around the macks then secure with bait string. seem to last a bit longer that way.

Theres a pic of my slide bait rig plus sinker here http://fishwrecked.com/forum/more-shark-rigs
