    Default Latest ..erm.. baits from the Safari Chiller...

    Hehehe- just like the "Latest flies from the vice", I thought us papgooiers could show the work we put into our baits.

    Here's one I used on friday night. Had to take a pic of it as I was certain it would get a knock, but all it got was a damn bird stuck in my line - AGAIN!

    That bait brings back great memories from years gone by fishing for dusky grey sharks off the bricks.

    grant didnt these guyts tell you you need to cast with a sinker on...otherwise your bait will sit on the surface for a while...thus leading to hooked birds...

    Stephen, these guys are sliding out their baits for the big boys. Seems they want to fly before they can crawl!

    That blood on the cutting board worries me Grant. Was that from one of the strandlopers you knobkerried with your fishing priest?
