So guys. if i have a stella 20000sw and lock it up. does that mean i have the 20kg ( or whatever ) pressure that is reccomended.

Similar to any reel that states the maximum drag  ?

Hey everyone,

Well i went to pull 1 of my pots the other day and it wasnt quite in the sand where i left it but found it 50m away over the reef. So after 15mins of trying to pull it up and in all different directions i come to the conclusion that its snagged pretty good. So does anybody know any little tricks to unsnag it or do i need to make friends with a diver? Pot is in about 12 to 13 meters of water.

Cheers, Paul

I've being doing a lot of work on Canning Beach Road, Applecross, just behind the Raffles

The rive is across the raod from the job

Are there fish in that section that can be rreached from the shore?

Keep feeling desire to cast a light line and SP's after work (or before/ during?)

Haven't seem any activity for such easy access to the river

Hi everyone, great website.  Can anyone tell me (I don't want your spots) any general info on where to catch crays and demersals in Geographe Bay/Busso/Dunsborough/Yallingup and what I can expect or hope to get?  I have a 23ft boat and will be heading down for Xmas and the times I have been out in the bay haven't been successful.  I have been out past the Cape a couple of times to the lumps and that has been a bit better.  Maybe I'm just crap at fishing.  Thanks for your help.

Two Cons in one day Bugger.....

Hi Everyone,
Please read below and pass on to your family & friends.

I got a call last night from an individual identifying himself as an Telstra Service technician who was conducting a test on our
Telephone lines.
He stated that to complete the test I should touch nine(9),zero ( 0), hash (#) and then hang up.
Luckily, I was suspicious and refused. Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you give the
Requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which allows
Them to place long distance telephone calls billed to your home phone number
I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many of the local gaols/prisons.
DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE. PLEASE pass this on to your friends.
If you have mailing lists and/or newsletters from organizations you are connected with, I encourage you to pass this on

Hi All I'm selling my Santa Fe on Gumtree and received the email below is it a con or real?

Hello,
Thanks for the swift reply, What is your asking price and i want you
to get back to me with more pictures because i am not available at the
moment, i am in Malaysia and i will be using the car here in Malaysia.
I will be handling the pick up of this merchandise through a
legitimate shipping agent that has their headquarter situated in
Malaysia . Please note that i will not be needing the vehicle
registration because it will be invalid over here so please remove the
registration. The car will be picked up after you receive the full
payment, so i really need to know the mode of payment because i need
this car urgently. Hope to read from you asap.

Kelly.

just a few piks from a recent outing in the swan

Gang,

Looking at getting a pot for crays this year and running the risk of it getting knocked off for a few tasty entrees. However, every time I've dived and seen a pot, they look pretty darn heavy once they have soaked. How do you guys pull them? Winch or muscle?

Cheers

Just wondering if anyone has used the vfox rods and what they think.

G'Day, was in the shop today and came across these Kor Gladiator, Snake Skin Sports rods. They seem pretty good and are only $150 for a 7' 6-10kg spin. Anybody heard anything about these or own one??

Cheers

whats some tips on jigging because im not to flash at jigging and its annoying im not getting any fish at all!! any tips on good jigs and colours?

im going squiding this weekend wats some good tips? i wanna beat my dad (fisho ron)

just wonderinif anyone has been getting any crabs lately and are they blues or just females

Just got a stradic 4000fi and was looking at using it for demersal jigging. What are your thoughts on using it, too small? I normally only jig as deep as 50m.  Also i have some braid to spool it with but with what 15, 20 or 30lb? I was reading up it can push out upto 9kg drag. Is that false info as most brands tell a few porkys with there max drag power.  Any of you already use it or shall i use it for something else?

Currently using a pfleuger torsion but seems a lil heavy on the pe2 rod, Advice from the jiggers will be a huge help.

Cheers

I have just looked through the lasted images and there is some great pics of some awsome fish caught over the last month which ones will make it into this months Photo of the Month Comp ? My vote will be for ?

Hi Guys, 

I have a rest day tomorrow after 3 weeks of overtime and am looking to get out in my boat for a fish - where do I go with this 20knot SE that seabreeze is predicting, and what can I fish for in the demersal ban, ant good spots up for grabs?

Dave

Thinking of goin fishing there tomorrow and just wondering what the beach is like to drive on there and what the track is like?

Thanks 

I have always just used my old sports shoes when fishing but im thinking about investing in a dedicated pair of rock and reef fishing shoes.
I have heard/read good things about rockhoppers, anyone got a pair or know of any other good shoes for this purpose?

thanks

Hiyas,

I was lucky enough to get a ride up to Jurien With Peter and Rhyss from the PGFC this morning. We met Whitey from Jurien Seasports on his boat, his deckie Matt, Jurien local and PGFC member Brad and Fisheries officer Adam there as well.

There was little swell but more wind, the conditions were fine in the 56' westcoaster, but probably would've been pretty ordinary on a trailer boat. We started at the Southern end of the strip, Launching Seasport, working up to the PGFC FAD and then finally the RED FM FAD in the North. We did a little bit of trolling in between the launches, with just one solid BZZZZT, probably a very lucky Striped or Yellowfin Tuna.

The coordinates ala iPhone;

Seasports: 30° 26.435 S 114° 37.748 E
PGFC:       30° 20.379 S  114° 36.075 E
RED FM:    30° 13.374 S 114° 34.028 E

The coordinates from chart;

Seasports: 30° 26.28 S 114° 37.66 E
PGFC:       30° 20.182 S  114° 36.14 E
RED FM:    30° 13.177 S 114° 33.91 E

Has anyone seen the clip of the seabreacher? Don't know how to paste the link but just google seabreacher. reminds me of something out of a Batman movie lol
