Hey AK, are you keen for a flounder next week if the weather's good? Moon looks better than this week. Anyone else keen? Glen, Pat?

I'll keep an eye on the forecast.

[pedro-two]

hunter killer to each his own if thats what you want to do good luck to you ., as for the people with the "what the ......" looks, if the knew their flatties they would realise that the same flathead could be theirs tomorrow.

[Jazman]

It's great to see so much interest in another floundering trip.

AK, got your #, cheers.

Pat, I have a wetsuit you might fit into, depends what shape you are though (I am a slim jim!) <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />

But I will be wearing waders, as I would like to have kids one day!

Forecast looks windy at least until early next week, so I think later in the week or next weekend will be the go.

Everyone cross your fingers for a still night!

Cheers

[quote name='fatboi' post='1996' date='Apr 21 2004, 01:52 PM']my lights 12V and so is me battery....so its all a mystery why it blew. I have no idea who manufacturered it coz I bought it when i was down in Lakes Entrance for prawning and threw away the packaging. So unless i head down there again I think i'm stuffed.



I pulled the thing apart, its just a car light with shitloads of silicon to waterproof the wiring....might try and custom make me one, using xenon lights and stuff, hehehehe liike those ones that blind you as you see em coming, that would be sweet!!!![/quote]



I'm tring to get a manufacturing company to market my floundering light, but I like for people to go floundering. Here is the best light in my opinion. I go in florida on my 12' jon boat and my light, that floats under the bow, gets me on an average 8 to 9 every night I go. So maybe a company will manufacture it and all will enjoy!!!

[glen]

sounds like a good idea flounder. hope it works out for you. how deep is the water where you are floundering? i have never tried from a boat before. how long is the spear you are using?
