Places to fish?Fishing Jobs?Need a deckie along the west coast

Hello all.

At the moment Im in Broome and heading down the west coast.My trip is based on fishing.I'll be heading all around the coast back up to nsw.

I am stuck to land based(as i have no boat) and was wondering if there are any hot spots along the way(im not after any secret spots) just a push in the right direction.

If any one needs a Deckie for a day or some one to chip in for fuel im more than keen.

Also more importantly i would like to get some work on a fishing boat,are there many companies along the west coast?

cheers for the help

good luck on ur adventures and i hope u get sum fish along the way if ur after a job there should be a few going on the cray boats once the whites finish come end of jan or there abouts just stop in at any of the small towns kalbarri, gero, dongara,green head,jurien ,cervantes and the list goes on but just ask around down the jettys when the lads get in from fishing might even pick up sum experience or a few days here and there soon as they are out deep depending on how ya go if ya keen?

There are plenty of landbased options there.

cheers for the advice

what do you do on cray boats?and what sort of money?

is there any fishing boats as in Trout/mackrel fishing boats .where your actually catching rather than trapping and sorting.

thanks again
