Healthy fishing grounds

My fisho partner and I had a good day at Rotto West end at the end of the salmon season this year. YT Kings were in plague proportions and great fun on light spin gear. There was still a few salmon around, nice fat 6kg buggers were also good fun. Gav took this Baldie for dinner, it came in at 5.5kg by memory and nearly dropped the jaw off the fisheries officer that met us at the ramp!

Yes this report is half a year old but it's good to know the grounds off Perth aren't as devestated as some will believe. We caught YT Kings, Dhuie's, Black butts, Salmon & Skippy of the more desired species that day, most taken on lures hard & soft.

Can't wait for the next spell of good wind!

Better late than never with the report. With the demersal closure there isn't a lot coming in from down south at the moment.

Tis a real nice baldie, good fish.
