Perth offshore pelagics
Submitted by fishing fanatic on Wed, 2013-12-04 18:08
So im looking at going out to the fads on friday chasing dollies and seeing if any wahoo or tuna are around again. Has anyone been out recently and had any luck?
My main question though is marlin. What the easiest way to locate one? I want to dive with and film one very badly and have heard there has been a few around. Should i just jump in one bait balls? start a burley trail? troll for hours on a drop or current? what would be the most effective way of finding one you guys reckon?
Cheers, Jacques

Get a couple of big skirts
Get a couple of big skirts and tie them to your feet and get towed around behind the boat .If you don't see a marlin Im sure a few graycoats may come in for a look..Mate you forgot sailfish .good luck .look forward to the pics and vids.

mmmmmmmmmmm There out there
mmmmmmmmmmm There out there allright guess you just need to get out there and get a line in the water ,as I don't think to many will be saying to much .still you would need to be keen this weekend ,I'll stay home and wait for the reports to come rolling in .
