More south coast fish

 Managed to get out a few times lately chasing a lot of different things, haven't targeted big sharks for a bit so I focused on just having some fun on squid, bream, diving/ spearfishing and looking for some new spots, found an awesome ledge that I'm going to helium balloon from for southern bluefin or maybe a Mack ( fair few Spanish and shark Mack's have been seen lately and a few caught), went for a dive Sunday morning and did ok with a horse queeny and nice grouper from bad vis so wasn't to bad either.  

The next few weekends I'll be after some big sharks so hopefully I'll get some photos and the salmon are starting to show with schools passing by every few days at most of the good beaches with some huge fish going 10kg.

 Yeah was a big salmon and yes they do get big, this one was my mates and was over 1m and 9-10kg, he caught 30 that size in a arvo east of town. The reel in the top photo is a daiwa sol type 2 brand new so I couldn't wait to try it out even if it was just on bream.

 These are all from around Albany. The 2 fish in the esky are tailor and the bottom one is a 1 eyed salmon haha, tailor are around just not in numbers like Perth but the ones I have seen are huge!!!! Seen a few tailor well over 80cm caught at a few remote beaches and I can't wait to give it a good go with the lures for a monster.
