After having to abort our trip in Feb at the last minute we finally made it to Exmouth. Being the only fisho in our group of 4 some compromises had to be made, but that turned out to be a good thing as the snorkelling and hiking was amazing.

Most days started with a quick trip to the reef in front of lighthouse caravan park throwing small poppers on very light gear for gts and queenies, I did this part of my day alone while the others went hiking, hence no photos. Got onto fish every morning and most released well, unfortunately one gt pretty much swallowed my popper whole and the amount of surgery needed to remove it meant it couldnt be released, so it became lunch. Lost a few poppers to bigger fish as well....

Evenings were spent chasing sharks, with 6 landed during the week. Tried using the head of the GT as bait and got picked up by a monster which wasted no time taking a few hundred metres of line off me before busting me off on some reef or something. Was great fun handing the rod around between the others who didnt fish much, the look on my mates girlfriends face is priceless lol. Also one estury cod took a big bait meant for sharks and one large stingray kept us busy for nearly an hour.

A home made hook remover saved me a few rigs and meant every hook was successfully removed as well as a few hooks from other peoples rigs that had been left in the sharks mouth

Was an awesome week, and though i didnt get one of the big sharks I was chasing I came back stoked and at least this way I have an excuse to go back, hopefully in the not too distant future.
