landbased kalbarri trip 17/5/14-7/6/14

 What a trip 3 weeks of fishing in kalbarri i fished at least twice every day the options were endless bream and cod fishin spinnin for tailor or macks dermersals and ballooning at the cliffs mulloway hunting crabbing. This was defently my best trip yet, i got my first fingermark bream, first mud crabs, first lb amberjack first lb baldie (even if it was only a baby)

Tailor- were a bit few and far between but still managed enough for some good mulloway baits, mack bait red head and slide swim minnow in silver and orange were the goto lures this time

Mulloway- i lost a horse on one of the first nights i was there and didnt have much luck after (spent more time at the cliffs than chasin mullaz). i was there to see tangles land a donkey20kg+ model though awsome fish very fat.  

Cliffs-got smoked by some big pinks so much fun didnt manage to land one but witnessed tangles land some beauties, got plenty of other fish there lots of wirrah and gold spot mowong which were a bit of a pest but kept ya entertained tailor skippy dart and lots of unstopables. 

River-heaps of fun spinnin for cod small tailor bream and even jagging some rather large mullet on our bream lures which go real hard! This is also were i met Belly88 (the cod master) and his misses jamie a really nice couple and had some great days fishing  with them and some great nights on the beers defently be catchin up with them soon.

A massive thank you to tangles i absaloutly loved fishin with him he has so much knowledge about fish, fishing and kalbarri it was amazing what i lernt off him in the last 3 weeks and all i can say is i'm a better fisho for been able to pick his brain thankyou.

Tangles fishing in Kalbarri

Sun, 2014-06-08 14:54

Callum 24, Now you can see why if tangles can get his quad bike fishing tours off the ground it will be a raging success, his knowledge of the fishing in the Kalbarri region is the stuff of legends. Maybe he should just charge a fee to take fishos land based fishing as he did with you guys. He is very knowlwdgeable and helpfull with his fishing ability. Grest to see you enjoyed your stay in Kalbarri.

Old Banga!

 Thanks Callum- I'm hoping to do a lot of catch/release, just want to enjoy a different fishing environment/experience.

                       Maybe I should take Tangle's out for a Jetski fishing session while I'm up there- then he might start Jetski Fishing Tours!    I can see the name "Tangle's Jetski Fishing Tours"
