Hey all

Not fishing related just wanted some input by anyone out there who own or have owned a lawnmowing business. Either franchise or independent.

Just after pros/cons and whether it can be run successfully to earn a living?

Cheers

 Hi guys am trying to plan a trip to Gero in the new yr sometime just wondering if anyone on here knows someone with a fully ewuipped house they would rent out with room for 2 4wds and a 6.7m boat hoping to get into some decent fish plus just to get away for a wk or so maub longer.

any info would be good to find something as all accommodation is expensive  as thought someone might be more helpfulive got 2 kids and my father in law with his missus and their 4 kidsI

 Just thought I would chuck up a couple of pics of the new electronics package in the bathtub.  Simrad NSE 8 running BSM 1 with a transom mount 600w and Structurescan LSS2.  One of the guys I know cut the pieces for the box on top of the console from Starboard for me, and I just put it together with alum angle, s/s hinges, hatch seal tape and some canopy stretchy loops to hold the lid down.  The lid hinges back so you can remove the electronics and cabling without difficulty.  I have another piece of starboard cut that will be fitted with s/s 'pullapart' hinges which will have a latch for locking so if we are out camping then we can lock the electronics within the box and at least keep the honest crooks out.

We also rewired everything through an isolation switch and distributed power from a positive and negative bus bar.  I have not quite finished as I need to sort out switches for a couple of devices like lights, bilge pump.

Its been a work in progress over the last few months but we finally took it out for a test run yesterday for a few hours on the swan.  No fish caught but a very nice day on the water playing with the new toy/s.  I will need to brace the starboard box with some supports off the front and sides of the centre console pedastal as the box did move a bit.

Pic 1 - Simrad NSE8, 4 way screen split Sonar, Chart, Downscan, Structure Scan.

Pic 2 - Simrad NSE8, Console/Box pic

Pic 3 - Simrad NSE8, Fullscreen Structurescan going under Canning Bridge.

Pic 4 - Hydrofoiling Moth on the move - Melville Water sorry for the pic quality, he was going quick and I was trying to zoom

Let me know if you would like to see more pics of the transducer mountings, wiring or more of the starboard box.

Fark that! Would have been hard to get traction to try and swim away from the bastard.

Not something you like to come across. Be nasty for the working girls to get contaminated with.

 Lets try to keep opinions about other clubs to ourselves!

 On the way back from fishing this morning,stopped into Seal Island.

It was looking spectacular:

 I was fixing the sprinklers today,cleaning them out and replacing a few.

The bore was working ok all morning while I was re-checking the sprinklers,(turning bore on/off manually)then the last time to make sure everything was ok,the bore won't turn on,and keeps blowing the fuse.

Replaced the fuse wire,and same thing- blows the fuse straight away.

So looks like I need to get an Electrican to come and have a look.

Thanks for any help.

Hi All

Just hoping that someone can answer my question.

The ski area down Mangles Bay, can you anchor or beach your boat just of the beach. Mainly so other family members can sit on the beach there and then head out for a bit of tubing.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Chasing someone to give my backyard a clean up with a bobcat and prep for roll on lawn.
Any recommendations SOR around the Piara Waters / Harrisdale area?

The Discovery Of The Heaviest Element . . .
Scientists at CERN in Geneva have announced the discovery of the heaviest
element yet known to science..

The new element is Governmentium (Gv).
It has one neutron,
25 assistant neutrons,
88 deputy neutrons and
198 assistant deputy neutrons,
giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons,
which are surrounded by vast quantities of lefton-like particles called peons.

Since Governmentium has no electrons or protons, it is inert.
However, it can be detected, because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.

A tiny amount of Governmentium can cause a reaction normally taking less than a second to take from four days to four years to complete.

Governmentium has a normal half-life of 2- 6 years.
It does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganisation in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.

In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganisation will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.

This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration.
This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass.

When catalysed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium, an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons. All of the money is consumed in the exchange, and no other by-products are produced.

 Hey guys, I'm after the opinions of non-tyrestore workers. I have one front tyre on the Bravo chewed out on the inside, but I'm not really in a position to buy a new set of tyres. The remaining three are still pretty good. 

I don't really like the idea of running a mismatched tyre (even of the same size) on the front. So, do you reckon I swap the backs to the front and replace the single tyre, or buy two new ones to keep axles the same? 

Or, perhaps someone has four they want to sell for a good price ;-)

Cheers!

 I have a couple of blokes from over east staying in a fortnight, keen to take them out in the boat but they are more surfers than fisherman.

can anyone point me in the right direction around where to head around west end that's safe to get a boat close enough to chuck them out for some waves?

Better predial the ambulance before I go out to the shed today....

Well it has been a long five months but just a few cosmetic adjustments and the Smuggler will be ready. Thanks to Sonic Signs Wangara for the modernising of the Bahia Mar trim and a very stunning effort by Boat Canopies WA for the full canopy and clears.

Also Moomba a great machine that 225 Mercury is. Cruises very happily at 30 knots. Have changed her down to a 15P four blade and this has increased its performance quite noticeably. Here are a few before and after pics.

hello fishos, Im a motor mechanic (petrol and diesel) and wanting to go and work on the mines. Do you know of any mines looking for LV mechanics? Any feed back would be much appreciated.
Please PM me if you have any info
Thanks Guys.

 Haven't seen peter for awhile what's happened ? I loved his input it's been over a week without a comment that's not like hiM

Anyone caught any slimies at Mindarie - have heard some rumors of them being caught.

Have not targeted them before so what rig and bait should I use.

Need some for trip up north

 Has anyone else met mark Brandon  read ? Just wondering how many people got to meet the guy before he kicked the bucket ! I was mates with Before he died and  I would have liked a reunion with him , but it's too late now I guess. I knew him from when I was 18 in 1977 when we first met, but unfortunately hadn't seen him since much after that.  He was a funny character and I'd like to just say R.I.P

 Saw and meant to buy a couple at the boat show as they looked the goods but forgot, now cannot find out who it was who was selling them - does anyone recall ???

Hi all.

The dimersal season is closed and i know many of you are getting ready to do some well earned maintanance ont the gear and boat. Good to see the cray season open early to keep those who are keen interested.

I have recently landed a large number of the Evapack cryovac machines from Italy. This has been a very long process of negotiation and compliance.

The new stock is ready to go just in time for Christmas and those who need to upgrade to a new evapack.

Our machine has some excellent features that set it aside to the rest.

1. Safety moisture detection. The machine will not engage the element if it detects too much moisture. This save you from cooking the machine.

2. Handy moisture tray and run off tubes that take away excess moisture. The moisture can't get into the electronics of the machine under normal use.

3. Our machine does not over heat and does not need a resting period between seals. You can use the machine bag after bag without stopping to wait for the machine to be cool enough.

4. Two year warranty. I personally back this product and have tested it over the past 5 years. My five year old unit still works perfectly.

5. This product is a fully tested and comes with full electrical compliance to Australian standards.

6. Powerful suction.

7. Easy to use and super reliable.

To celebrate the new delivery of the Evapac machine, i am offering FW members the following special.

Buy the machine for $220.00 and i will ship it for free. (Australia wide)

The machine comes with 25 bags. 10 small, 10 medium and 5 large. It also comes with special attachments for use on jars.

This is a great package and i will be offering this deal up to the end of December 2013.

Please contact Dave on 0403978583 for any questions or delivery queries.

Regards

Hi all,

I have just moved to Karratha for work and expect to be here for a very long time.  I watched a fishing show the other day where they were hooking for mud crabs.  I am very interested in catching a few mud crab this way, that way i can keep the mrs happy as she loves them.  Can any one tell me where to go around Karratha to go hooking for mud crabs?  And also if there are any decent creeks around the area to get a few, as I am keen as to get a few.  Thanks everyone
