Hello from a Newbie!
I have been following this forum from time to time and wanted to say Hello! (and introduce myself)
I fish out of Hillary’s and Ocean Reef mainly in a shared Red Barcrusher 6.1m 130hp Etec, not getting out a lot but try to get out at least once per week. I used to travel to Shark Bay before I got my boat to get my “fish Fix”, never doing great but always good enough to plan to returnJ
It wasn’t until a couple of local tackle stores (and incidentally a couple of fine individuals) put me right in terms of where to look for Skippy, Tailor and herring. Recently in the last 2 years I have had some good success with Dhufish and Snapper fishing between 15-38m)
I love fishing afternoons, preferring to wake up at a normal time (have 3 year old boy) and fish in the PM without being afraid to come home after dark…I’m a stickler for using Mulies as bait and would love to learn more about other baits and Jigging techniques.
I will close of my saying thank you for your posts that I have learnt from and I really hope to contribute to this board and indeed share some of the knowledge that I have with others and in turn learn more from the more advanced and personable members of this forum.
Please do not hesitate to PM me or ask me questions about my fishing- Looking forward to earning some respect and making some good friends.

Respect! - Tell the truth & try not to be too critical of other peoples posts
That will get you more respect than the greatest fishing stories.

Just remember
It's just another fishermans tale unless you have a photo to back it up.. Then it is a true fishing story.
Sometimes when the water is quiet, you can hear the fish laughing at you !
