Type of Hobie owned:

Type of boat owned: Stratos 201 ProXL with Evinrude 225HO DI

Favourite Fish to catch or target: Bream, Bass

Rod: Fishing rods are my weakness! But if I had to narrow it down – Daiwa Interline TMZ-I 662ULFS/ Daiwa Battler Sparrow TD-BA 661LXS / Daiwa Heartland Z Finesse Special HLZ 601 MLXS-Sti

Reel: Daiwa Caldia 2004, Luvias 1003, Exist 2508

Line: 3lb Sunline FC Sniper spinning fluorocarbon, 10lb Daiwa Tournament Hyper PE

Natural Habitat: I love the challenge of fishing the tournament trail and I love fishing with my kids. My favourite technique for chasing bream would have to be Cranking Sydney Harbour’s gnarly structure. Marina’s, pontoons, boats and rockwalls are all the more fun on light fluorocarbon line! When I’m not fishing, I’m writing about fishing on lureandfly.com

Favourite Fish to catch or target: Bream

Reel: Any Daiwa 2000/2004 Sized Reel

Line: Daiwa Tournament Hyper PE

Natural Habitat: I have enjoyed fishing the ABT circuit from Hobart, Tasmania to Caloundra, Qld but I am completely at home fishing the boats and pontoons on my home waters of Sydney Harbour. I prefer the challenges of fishing boats, pontoons, edges or anything that needs an accurate cast. I'm really enjoying the challenge of writing, photographing and filming for lureandfly.com.

Favourite Fish to catch or target: Bream

Rod: Daiwa TM-Z Interlines

Reel: Luvias and Caldia's, 2000′s and 2004′s

Line: Daiwa Tournament Hyper P.E. and Spinning Fluoro

Natural Habitat: I enjoy travelling to fish tournaments and the challenge it brings, adopting to a new waterway which I usually only get see once a year. My preferred style of fishing is when I'm taking a gamble with structure such as pontoons, jetty's, marina's, moored boats as well as shallow tight snags and rockwalls. Getting all that stuff out of my head for others to share and into video or on paper for lureandfly.com has been my latest venture.
