Kalbarri Mulloway

Hey guys,

Just got back from Kalbarri was supposed to be there for the whole weekend but had such a good night we decided to come home early.

The first morning was spent spinning for Tailor at my usual haunts but things were quiet and decided to call it quits and catch up on lost sleep from the night of driving.

Friday night was spent soaking baits for Mulloway after at least 20 lost rigs to huge sharks the first mulloway came in around 6ish kgs. After a couple more shark bust offs the second one comes in around 3-4kgs.

The night was coming to an end and my bro all sad on not catching anything  his rod finally buckles over, after a short time later he lands a nice mulloway around 13-14kgs.

We all decide to call it quits have a sleep and get up nice an early for a morning session.

With only darda and myself getting up i decide to pinch my bros 7ft saltwater and 4000 sol to bait cast for some tailor while my big rod had a nice tailor fillet soaking. First cast on the light outfit and i find myself chasing another mulloway down the beach trying to keep it away from all the little bommies. After a good 10 mins he was beat and i had my second mulloway for the trip guessing it was around 12kgs.

With Darda now complaining about still not catching a mulloway his rod finally buckles over and he ends ups landing one around 8kgs.

Couple more sharks bust offs and we were done. We were all stoked with the night/morning we decided to leave on a high and headed back to Perth.

I released my 2 Mulloways and the other boys decided to keep there's being there first and wanting to get the jewels.

Hope ya like the pics.

Kris

frustrations

Mon, 2011-10-31 22:48

they were over at frustrations on the other side of the river, walk up past the big flat reef up the beach and there is a dirty big hole in close to the shore and that is the sweet spot! or you can go up the beach round the corner a bit more to the second bay and fish the gutters! take your pick its an endless area for mullas! 80milke if you have a quad! but if you cant be bothered just get over to oyster reef and fish the ledge in the channel and hang on! the bigens come in usually just after dark and towards midnight
