Still a nice fish regardless
Still a nice fish regardless there Ad's......i gave the old fly a go when i was up in broome, i hooked a smallish GT and my nuckles and thumb nail got hurt! Everytime i went to gain line it took off smashing my fingers on the reel. Ill keep to spinning gear thanks.
Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!

What do you use to catch Giant Herring?
So they are different species but the closest to them are Giant Herring that are inhabited our waters. Is there any good spots were I could try in the Swan or Canning River? And what would you MAD fisherman use to land one of these elusive fish?
Cheers..

Nah
Nah, not me Raja, but my mate Gribbo. Have been thinking about it, but not sure if I can be bothered with the amount of effort it looks like it takes.

Whole new world!
The fly is an awesome way to catch fish and not the effort ppl think it takes. Fly offers a whole new world on sportsfishing and the extra effort is replaced with ALOT more enjoyment with a fly capture.....I'll stand by that!

Definately
Agree with ya Ryan. It just takes a bit of practice, that's all. When you catch on fly it's awsome. Be it trout or saltwater species, both great. MAXY
