 Certainly will be. I'm not

 Certainly will be. I'm not phased by all the greenys sooking, although I don't fish places with surfers as I surf myself and wouldn't appreciate it.

People fish for sharks because they are there, we're not the reason they are attracted to the beach

My sister wants to catch one

Tue, 2017-10-10 15:58

My sister wants to catch one I'll target them after we've got out feed of whiting... heaps of tigers/hammers in the 10m mark out from Mandurah... personal best in that area was a 3.5m tiger on a whole mullet, for the smaller hammers we use a live whiting about 3m below the surface.

Landed a small bronzie a few

Tue, 2017-10-10 20:42

Landed a small bronzie a few months back, first one i've landed targeting them.

Started with the Alvey and 50lb mono, penn 950 and 80lb braid, both got tail whipped.

Now Alvey is 50lb mono to 150lb mono, stopped my one hook up since.

Broken hand might force me back to the penn for a while, added 100lb leader after lossing a blue groper and shark in the one morning.

Been sliding whole mullet, the bigger ones attract less rays i reckon.

Had a big bronzie eyeball me and a mate off the rocks one morning, plenty here on the south coast.

Plenty of 2m to 4m Tigers. Bronzies and Whites too. No surf to battle through. Swim or paddle a bait out 60m. Good car parking etc.

 Slidebaiting the south coast

Tue, 2017-10-17 21:15

 Slidebaiting the south coast I used to target sharks a lot and myself and my brother have some decent ones. 3m+ bronze whalers and the odd big nurse on castbaits or slides. I always made sure I did it away from swimming beaches andnever received any negative attention. I hate seeing people post photos of popular beaches people swim at then wondering why people get upset that they have caught a shark there even though the shark was in the area more than likely.
