Consider it done, let me know when you want to head over this way and you got accomo and I will try get some time off work.
Just let me know when you think the barra will be on and I'll plan it with work. I know its a long way off, I'm just looking foward to loosing my barra virginity.

Adam no worries will talk to
Adam no worries will talk to jay or glen see if either of them are keen some time this year. If you want a really good chance at some good barra mate november onwards will be the go. How long do the billies run for down that way?

there hot
There hot this time of year through to June. Well, they start tapering off the later in the year it gets, there still about, just a lot more water inbetween them. Mind you, if the billies aren't conducive we have plenty of fall back options that are still good fun!

That will cost you a beer Sam
That sort of info will cost you a beer Sam... :) I run teasers either side and one rod each. I don't troll baits because I can't be bothered rigging them and plastic more often than not works. Maybe if we were going for bigger fish then we'd consider a skip bait.
Theres still some info that I need to get more detail on in regards to the legislation with Commonwealth waters.
Apparently the fisheries boys have been pulling people up and telling them one hook per lure and only one rod each. I'm still a little unsure as to whats going on, the guys are only warning people at the moment, so I really don't know. I think theres further documentation coming out on it soon, but at the moment, it just pays to be careful.
I can't give any real info out it because I have nothing to do with compliance, best bet is to ring fisheries and ask them what the rules are relating to Commonwealth waters off Exmouth. If you do, please put it up here for us as I can't say anything on these sort of matters as it could open a serious can of worms for me.
Cheers,
Adam
