G'day from Exmouth
Submitted by Adam Gallash on Tue, 2007-02-27 18:47
Hey Guys,
Up in Exmouth and well settled in. Went out for a fish today in pretty nasty south easters. We landed one grey mack about 1 metre, went wide, raised one marlin - about 45-50kg range and had him in the spread for about 30 seconds, had him hookup for a good 60 seconds before the hook pulled. SPEWN! Had something 20 minutes later hit the spread, but didn't hookup. We landed one more stripey tuna of 4kg, but a very quiet day on the water and rather uncomfortable. Might head out tomorrow arvo for a bottom bounce and see what we can find, see if this bloody wind drops off.
Will have a permanent internet connection soon and will report more.
Happy fishing guys,
Adam

Hehehhe
Well, I consider it quiet after trolling for 10 hours. Heaps and heaps of tuna everywhere, but they weren't too interested in what we were offering. If I dont hit the water this arvo it will probably be another week before I get out there, but there are rumours that theres lot of marlin out there at the moment. Only one other boat out there with us yesterday and they were hooked up to a small black. Still promising for the first day, hopefully a lot more to come thou!

Update
Latest report.
Went out today to the back of tantabidi and caught a few fish.
about 5 mackies from 10kg through to 1 that went 18kg ( released, to big for the esky )
14kg cobia
Big rankin cod on a minnow
7ft bronzie that took a minnow and jumped about five times clear of the water, thought it was a wahoo.
To top it off we landed a 10-15kg black marlin that wasn't in good shape, been attacked by a bigger fish. Caught on a halco laserpro.
Good signs of things to come. Will let you all know how the marlin fishing is as i am heading out wed
