Am I still in Kalbarri 2
First post appears to be irretreivably broken, error messages, etc. Try

Took 2 pots back out this morning, planned to fish after. Tried trolling, water dirty as usual inside, fresh easterly, nothing after an hour, so i anchored up in close not far from town. I was intent on getting a livie down, so I gave my wife a 10kg baitrunner outfit with a lightly weighted mulie to go on with . Before I could get anything she was into a decent Golden Trevally. Put him back, still trying to get a livie, she has a big Silver Trevally. Then a small Goldspot Trevally, 67 cm Pinkie, legal size Spangled,and a fair Cobia. Meanwhile, i've been dusted twice on the baitchaser rigs
between tying baitchasers back on, dealing with her fish, a spot of jigging, and re-rigging after being sharked, and everything else, I still don't have a useable livie after 2 hours-a parade of footballers, baby blackarse, scalyfins, undersize baldie, spinefoot-aaarrrgghh!
Eventually i just give up and start floating a mulie , things have gone quiet. So we move a bit, burley up again, and I get smashed on the PE1.5-3 jig outfit floating a mulie--call it for a sambo after 10 minutes it turns out to be a solid Gold Spot Trevally, nearly as thick through the shoulder as a sambo, must have gone 10kg.
Jesus, am I in the tropics? I mean, I have caught all these species individually before around here, but never on the same day.

Steve is catching Mackerel.
We pulled our pots on Tuesday, water looked crap, green and dirty. Steve trolled past us, good luck with that, we thought, and went home. He trolled further north and came on some clearer water, 5 mackerel.
There have been a few caught lately, but still very patchy. Fish of all kind have been pretty hard to come by, gotta work for them.

Yes, works for me
Some say it attracts sharks--nowadays,boats attract sharks, I don't get any less of the B**t*8ds annoying me if I didn't burley. Had some more mackerel reports today, some boats are getting their six, others nothing, very patchy, good if you find them.

They are where you find them.
A few turned up north of the sandpatch, and out the three mile, and down the end of the cliffs
So they are very scattered.
