Hi Guys,
We are heading to Bermi at the end of March. Hopefully to catch a few marlin, tuna and reef fish. We will be in the 650F, if you see us around come and say hi. |

We will be in the 650F, if you see us around come and say hi. It's very likely that I will be down there at that time, does your boat have a name. i will be in either " NIMROD " a 5.3 Savage Lancer or RC1 a half cab Pongrass. Won't be chasing Marlin though will be staying in close,100metre mark usually stops us these days, no need to go wider for the fish we want. Except the odd occasion when we want some Tassie Trumpeter or such. Welcome to the site. -------------------- Frank

Hi Frank thank you for the welcome,
Yes the boat has a name but the name is currently under dispute and will most likely be removed this weekend. I doubt it will have a new name before this trip. The boat has custom hardtop so it should stand out. We will keep an eye out for you. |

Things generally start hotting up off sydney around now
pointless doing a trip in hope you'll find them elsewhere I run with the theory if they are elsewhere they'll be here as well so why travel Most trips away end up non fishable cause of bad weather -------------------- Save The Fish, Eat a Pussy |

Usually a fairly good month for Marlin, March/April, the Tuna generally come in close around May/June/July, Yellowfin that is. Other forms of tuna are about all year round out wide. -------------------- Frank

A lot of water between Narooma and Bermagie  I never make dates I just go down wheneven I get around to it, IF the weather is sour I have plenty to do around the property, so keep busy. Fishing is just a hobby that I get to do on the odd occasion when there's nothing else that needs to get done.

When I go down that way I am actually bassed on a 10 acre property 1 k out of a small village called Cobargo on the Bermagui rd. It's about a 20 min drive to get to the ramp from where I stay, not entirely ideal but it doesn't cost me anything for accomodation and I come and go as I please, so I just go down when it suits me. -------------------- Frank

Still plenty of prep required, some of the lures need to be re rigged, one reel still needs a new top shot and the big boats in bits.
The trailer needs bearings/brakes inspected and new tyres. Working Saturday but hopefully I will make good headway the rest of the long weekend. This post has been edited by frozenpod: Mar 6 2013, 07:06 PM |

The trailer needs bearings/brakes inspected and new tyres. Working Saturday but hopefully I will make good headway the rest of the long weekend. After a long weekend working on the boat, it is now in even more bits. Hardtop was wired with non tinned wire that was made of several short sections joined together. Wires also had nicks and damaged that was mostly covered with electrical tape. The wires were pretty rusty and upon a light tugg broke. Looks like left over scrap wire, cant believe what we found....... Sadly the wires were also glassed into the hardtop which has made running new wires very difficult as all bar one wire broke a few cms into the hardtop. Very hard to believe but the previous owner paid a so called professionals a small fortune to have the custom hardtop built and wired. Although taking a bit longer than expected on the upside at least this time I will be done right. |

Lot of hopless auto/marine elecs out there by the looks of it.
Rewired the 520 17 years ago still all 100% to this day. Job done right will last. At this stage I have managed to run one wire through using broken bits of what was left of the orginal wire and coat hangers, hopefully I can use this to bring the rest of the wires through tomorrow. |

Finally some progress.
Managed to get all the wires through, performed a electrical test all ok then bolted the hardtop back on. New tyres go on tomorrow leaving the weekend to prep the rest of the gear. New rod arrived today and I cant wait to use it. This post has been edited by frozenpod: Mar 12 2013, 06:34 PM |

Ended up about 65-70km offshore. 16 boats out fishing for marlin with none being raised. Too windy today hopefully we get out tomorrow. |

Couple of dolly's, couple of yellow fin and a shit load of stripies.
No luck on the marlin but did well with the reef fish. Had a good trip weather was pretty good but the water was cold and dirty inclose. Warm water started to come in close in the last couple of days and it looks very good for easter. |
