I think it's cool that the local rag has a fishing section on thier web page but i found this a bit strange. i've nailed heaps of Damps even without flys or lures and seen the fights in the water too. oh well it could be an option to chase for some fun up here.

Blue Bastard : scientific
Blue Bastard : scientific name Plectorhinchus caeruleonothus
Around Perth we get Painted Sweetlip, scientific name Diagramma labiosum.
May look similar, but going by the scientific names, must be completely different species.

I've caught several of these
I've caught several of these buggers around Coral Bay. I didn't think that they ate that well, very fishy.
