wagon as in stag or 4wd? got surf popper rig? good luck with it!! how many days you camping down there?

Stagea. If I can't find a box in time I'll be driving mates Land Rover troopie. Grabbing a couple of poppers tonight and some new line, 10-15kg should be fine yeah? what sort of rig setup would you suggest for beach casting?

We're leaving Thursday and coming back Tuesday :banana:

10-15 is fine. did you already get poppers...not just any old popper will do :closedeyes: get the geoff wilson surf popper rig if you havent already. and dont forget to change hooks.

got 18kms yesterday and today from cape riche and 30 from bremer bay. bloody boss booked me into jerramungup pub and not bremer. i was spewing. had all my gear packed ready. didnt have time to trek down there at all. im going down next week for a few days once most people go back to work. 3 days annual leave to get 10 off total :thumbsup:

the hook through the popper isnt the strongest but with a bit of drag usually dont have any dramas. they are well worth the effort. be funny as if your the only one in your group who cleans up. heard of heaps caught at cheneys beach right next to cape rich so you should have plenty around ya.

went to yallingup today but was blowing its ass off. couldnt see anything. went back to dunsborough and was calm. but only couple herring and no salmon. didnt see anyone else catching anything either. going to windy harbour for 3 days from thursday so hopefully hook into em

There was bugger all, fishing from the beach and the rocks all our group caught was a couple of small whiting and a baby flathead. Most of the time the wind was too crazy to cast into :(

'sok, learnt how to ride a quad instead :banana:

well last year couldnt have gone much worse. my first year in about 15,16 years i havent caught a Salmon. although after a mate lost one off his hook i jumped on it and caught it by hand :thumbsup:

heading down to Malimup this weekend for a look. friend saw salmon heads on the beach at Yeagurup at new years so must be a couple around. either way the beer will be cold :cheers:

have been using these poppers for the past 5 years with great success apart from the fact they are too weak sometimes. however i get about 19/20 on the popper and only 1/20 on gangs with mulies. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Fishing-Surf-Poppers-10-Pack-Green-Rig-Master-Tackle-/270898384028?pt=AU_Sport_Fishing_Tackle&hash=item3f12cd4c9c

have just bought 6 blue and 6 pink of these new/bigger/stronger ones and they look awesome. good size and very strong hook compared. not available in green unfortunately. hopefully they will be just as good :thumbsup:http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/6-X-New-Generation-Quality-Medium-Surf-Poppers-Fishing-Lure-New-Exciting-Colours-/110812431086?pt=AU_Sport_Fishing_Tackle&hash=item19ccef82ee

you know i do :merli:

Youll need 4wd, personal accomadation (Swag, tent, back of ute), fishing gear, 3 tanks of fuel, food for as many days as you plan to be there.

And beer is sacred! You can use another mans fishing equiptment, you may even sneak a slice of bread or 2 and a piece of bacon....but on that beach, you touch another mans brew...you may not leave the beach. Just sayin.

Ill keep you informed of dates once i know....but most likely, end March

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
