Sydney North FAD replaced?

[Rokjok777]

we went looking for it last weekend but it was gone...i heard from the guys at fisouttawater that it was being replaced, anybody know for sure? Thanks>>Stevan I'll give you a ring, let's go out soon

Mark it is still not there - and knowing how fisheries are it wont be replaced this season, as they pull them all out over winter and re set them for each summer in new and different places. Anyway every time we speak to fisheries about it we get the run around - they give us a mobile number to call and the guy doesnt answer, so dont know if they have plans to re do it this year or just re do it next year.....

Cheers mate

When did you last see it? I was out there last week and it was there. It had moved about a KM NW of it's original position a few months ago. Are you perhaps using the old marks for it? Do your marks look like this?
S33°47'01.26" E151°22'42.00"

[imnotafish]

Jo, are they the correct marks or the old marks??
i was using 33°35.554’ - 151°34.607’
This is for the FAD off Broken Bay

These are the newest ones. I was out there today, so these are 100%
S33°47'01.26" E151°22'42.00" This is in DMS format
S33°47.0210' E151°22.7000' And this is DMM Format.

S33°35.4537' E151°34.6559' DMM
S33°35'27.22" E151°34'39.36" DMS

Yeah the broken bay one is a bit further but it had bigger dollies on it too! It is goooooone now tho..... bit of a shame

I think I am the subject of someones voodoo curse. Lat three trips I haven't turned a reel! Today I redeemed myself with Sweep, Sgt. Baker, a medium Cuttley, and more sweep!:violent1:

At least I have broken the Voodoo!:blow up me:

[imnotafish]

Know how you feel, ive had a bit of a week like that too.....
Next week'll be better!
