Upcoming Exmouth Trip advice please.
Submitted by monstaf1sh on Sun, 2012-04-15 21:27
Hi guys,
I am heading up to Exmouth for the first time fishing trip with one day booked out with Eddy on Peak Sportfishing to chase the GT's and plan on hiring a boat for a couple of other days.
I really only wanted to book a 4.2m woodduck runabout for 2 days but can only get it for one, the lady I spoke to from Exmouth Boat Hire said the 5.5m boat is available for the other day.
Is there any other good boat hires out there? or should I just stick with the two boats?
Also would like some advice on the best places to launch and fish or any other useful tips whether boating or land based.
I have 5 nights up there so I will be fishing ma a$$ off.

It's been decided Day 1
It's been decided
Day 1 I'll probably be fishing landbased.
Day 2 On the boat with Eddy from Peak Sportfishing
Day 3 hired a 5.5m Forward cabin
Day 4 hired a 4.2m woodduck runabout.
Had to get different boats for the 2 days as they were all booked.
Can anyone help me out with any advice on where to launch or fish to maximise the boats I have??

Launch from tantabiddi head
Launch from tantabiddi head out through the reefs which is marked on the plotter and there is lead markers also. Troll north to Helby bank with some divers laser pros and xrap deep divers worked for me a month ago. You will be in with a very good chance of pickin up some mackies the first day I was up there last time we got 3 tripple hook ups. Also look out for birds and tuna busting up the surface put around with them while someone chucks metals and stickbaits on flick rods at them was bulk fun for us. Good luck

I'm not fussy I'm going for
I'm not fussy I'm going for pretty much anything that swims and has gills.
Ill be bringing up with me a calstar 700h, xzoga pe8 jig, xzoga pe2, tcurve 5-10kg and a light 3-5kg stick.
With reel sizes daiwa 6500, shimano 5000 - 8000, and a 4000.
I think I should have enough gear to cover a good range.
