Fishing recently

Certainly hasn't been the best few weeks fishing, only got out on the boat twice. Started off with me been selected to join the Western Angler nextgenfishing fishing team, a new team that has been formed for young fishos. Great to be a part of it, you will definantly see more of this team in the future. Also great because I'm now sponsored by multiple different brands, can write fishing articles, do fishing demonstrations at events like the mandurah boat show and much more. Fishing was slow with only a couple alright dhuies, a few pinkies, sambos and plenty of other fish caught. Lost plenty of salmon with loads hooked but not landed. Caught a lot of herring around the place. Spent long hours going for landbased pinks, had a lot of trouble with rays, fiddler sharks and port jacksons even though I was ballooning. Most days I was the only one out in the freezing cold weather and storms fishing, despite having fresh squid and crabs for bait and putting in 10hours a session day and night trying to catch them I still didn't land one. I did have some action though, I was hand lining mullet for bait when a had a decent mulluway take a small yellow eye at me feet, went straight under the jetty and on 10lb line and a long shank hook it was never going to end well. Not catching one hasn't put me off trying, it just means I'll be determined to land one. Max
