Mandurah Salmon
Submitted by Ol Tom on Sat, 2014-05-03 19:01
Bugger me I was out the back of FFB TRYING to catch a feed this arvo when I spotted what I thought was possibly some sambos smacking up a school of baitfish. Due to the poor response from the whiting I was chasing, I up anchored and went after the splashes with a troll past the surface work. Saw the fish on the sounder and whack ....got one. Good size salmon. So I had another go and bang again another. They were like small horses!!
So anyway I do have a photo but cant work out how to get it off the iphone. Dont care if you all say "no photo it doesnt exist" but I just wanted to let everyone know that BIG salmon are about and bloody good fun on the troll.

are salmon going South or North ??
I was chasing herring in close for fun and give that away when I saw a large salmon chase the hooked herring in beside the boat, so I changed lures and landed one, then it went all quiet again.
Thought they would be heading south this time of year ??
