Finally have done it!

Hi all.

 

It's been a few years now that I've been logging onto and reading about all the stuff that goes on within the website but I've finally become a member and hope to meet and fish/scuba with a few more in the community. Seems very odd writing the first post to you all as I feel that I know a few of you reasonably well through reading your posts over the time so here's a bit of backgound for you all about me.

 

I've been in Perth now for about 7-8 years of which, only really being into fishing for the last 3 years or so. Been out with a few of the crew here including Simon C (quite a bit actually and got me addicted), Sam and even Adam once when in Exmouth but really only just learning the ropes. I am a little lucky to have a business that has provided me with enough cash/time to be able to really get into the boating side of fishing/diving in a hurry and enjoy it so I'll be happy to look out for people looking for deckie spots when I head out. In saying that, I'm pretty keen to hit the water on nearly nothing notice and especially keen to do some diving for crays with ANYONE that can teach me how to actually get my hands on one of the little suckers!

 

I'm a MASSIVE seafood lover and happy to eat a fresh fish any day of the week however, I also am very pro fishing for the future and am one of the guys who thinks licences and smaller bag limits aren't an issue. If there's anything going on to save our fishing future, I'd love to learn more about it and really think that sites like Fishwrecked are a great source of information and idea sharing.

 

Hope I can get involved in some of the discussions and I'm pretty sure I know the difference between a Pink Snapper and a silver bream - good start i think!

Nice intro

Tue, 2010-11-23 08:29

And welcome as everone has said. Even us northerners like reading about southern stories and vica versa.

It a great place to learn and if you look up my last question about trolling for trout you will see that even old salt need to learn more, and there is no better way than learning from someone thats done it before. So many ways to fish you couldnt possibly master them all, and when trying something new there is always an answer. You will love being able to ask.

Just watch the controversial topics like Silver bream as you picked up.

Neels

PS when up Kcity way give us a yell.
