Hi there. I'm in the Ocean Reef Sea Sports Club and our fishing year has come to an end. In the beach/rock fishing area, we have a trophy for the Most Meritorious Fish. I've put together a shortlist, and I'm hoping I can get fellow anglers views on what they think is the best of the bunch. Candidates are: 0.417kg Breaksea Cod 4.120kg Dhufish 2.365kg Spangled Emperor 2.260kg Harlequin 18.720kg Spanish Mackerel 12.760kg Mulloway 17.780kg Samsonfish 0.429kg King George Whiting Some good fish from the shore here, but I think my top 3 (in no order) are Dhufish, Harlequin and Spanish Mackerel. Please let me know what you think. Cheers Belly

It's time to give my 1000 Rareniums a birthday after both being dunked. I stripped and regreased them etc straight away but they are suffering from noisy bearings. Has anyone purhased a bearing kit for their reel from Plaig and how did they go?

Cheers JF

Hi all

With the new closure areas stopping me from fishing my normal inshore spots, I plan to try the western side of the five fathom bank behind garden island before the demersal ban kicks in.

Not done much fishing in this area. Am I best to drift or anchor and burley?

Cheers for any advice

Hello, Anyone know any good stainless steel fabricators that could help with modifying my leaning post? looking to get a couple rod holders on the back similar to the picture below.

has anyone launched 6m boat from there recently?

 I took a totalscan transducer off the bottom of my boat. It had been sikaflexed on . It ended up with a small crack near the back of it but it still works OK. If anyone can use it they can have it for free. It is in Bunbury.

I am now trying a 3 in 1 transducer.

I know it's a long shot, but I only realised in September, after 4-5 months break from fishing, that I left the top piece of my Penn Prevail 14'6" (3 pce) rod at South Mole around April/May. Such a random thing to have occurred because normally I would have had a glow stick on it and wrapped it in rod holders afterwards. 

It's probably too late to ask around if anyone has seen it. But would anyone happen to have a spare piece that they would be willing to sell? It's a really gut-wrenching thing to have lost because next to the Pflueger Crank, it's my favourite rod for surf fishing. 

 Was out solo yesterday on the reef 3km off 14 mile at Warroora station, and heard a voice.

WTF. radio not on. Looked about and there was a diver coming over to my boat.

Can I get a lift back in when you go?

Apparently he had been out with a crew in a boat all diving along the reef, and they left him there.

Lucky boy.

Would have liked to hear the conversation when he caught up with the crew!!

 Glass off sunday with the dhus on the chew in a big way every mark we fished

Hi all

Has anyone caught anything decent out of swan river from a boat ? And what area is best to fish from boat  

Hi All,

Thinking of taking the Mother in Law out to see a whale tomorrow. Looking for advice on if there are there many around at the moment? The best places where they seem to be in higher frequency? eg. North or south of Rotto, 30 m mark, 40 m mark?

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

THIS WEEKS SPECIAL!
All TD Zero models from light bream up to snapper soft plastic rods!

 hi, im not sure if this is the right place to ask. where do u go to catch yabbies, near public access for cars. i heard now you cant use those net pot kinda trap but only allowed open top trap. i live near armadale, so would like to give it a go near by.

Passed a boat yesterday in about 50m of water and it had a pro cray pot rope tied to the bow. 

Is that legal?

 Out from woodys, wide, skipper got a rapala reel in the W Anglers show bag filled it with braid a big johns jig on the end, bingo a 70 cm dhui. Lots of bits and pieces a throw bac sambo and a queenie, good day out

Headed out for a night fish in the boat too

see if the tailor are playing the game yet .

Just bait casting mulies my mate got pinged

not long being out there. Then I landed a 

little shark which we kept for eating. Maybe

bit early yet and way too calm for the

greenies .. nice night for a float though.

Cheers pirate ..  

From fisheries department - dated 13 September A costly reminder that it is illegal to interfere with fishing gear .A man was fined $ 3000 and issued with $225.90 in court costs earlier this week for taking a octopus pot after it’s long line became tangled with his anchor in Cockburn Sound last year. the man had removed the pot , taken it home and attached a pool noodle to it as a float before using it to fish for octopus himself. Unlawful interference with Commercial fishing gear carries a penalty of up to $25000 and / or up to 12 months imprisonment or confiscation of boat and vehicle  used in illegal activity .Most fishers do the right thing 

Hi everyone! We hope you are all enjoying the long weekend and are making the most of the weather! Just to let you all know that the doors will be shut on Monday's Public Holiday, back to normal Tuesday.

 Looking good on the water Sunday, my boat still kinda out of action to go wide.

Anyone looking for a extra set of hands?

Could be a good DD day, looks to be good everywhere with wind forcast to drop on high tide.

Not sure if this has been posted already but very impressive as worthy of another look !

Had a school of big skippy under the boat today. Caught 4 over 65cm. Kept one st 68 and some around the 55 mark Biggest was 73! Was sure I had finally caught a snapper lol! Ahh well, awesome fight. 

Enjoy

 First up sorry for the lack of photos just done a quick two day spearfishing trip to steep so we were pretty stoked had been a couple of few years since i or mates had been there place especially the cliffs from a boat spectacular to say the least  oh i left the camera on the beach each day. Anyway we spent most of our two six hours in the water trying for mackerel and even had a hard time trying to get sharks into the berly trail water was clean enough in places mainly the fault line surf point area we fished but 21 degs and probably colder at depth so only 2 macks seen  still we  got some good baldies and a few over bits and pieces 10 keg mulla fish ot the trip not mine unfortunately. Am curious as to how you line fisherman go this time of year as we seen the balloons on the point  it seemed really quite fish wise for anywhere then alone steep .on another note and not a good one when we left denham after leaving the car and trailer at the ramp overnight  5ks up the road we lost a tyre at speed off the trailer all six nuts on one wheel came off at once  they were within 10 meters of each other on a dual axel trailer gaurd and tyre fu#ked could have been worse  oh and a hour looking for tyre would like to think accident but hard to think it wasn't deliberate has anyone ever had a issue denham or anywhere else like this can't think how else it could happen.

 Just asking foe advice on the best water depth for big fat whiting offshore Rocko. My attempts so far over the years has only resulted in mainly smallish ones with the occasional keeper. I have fished both sides of the five and my best returns for numbers tend to be behind Garden Island, but not many bigger ones. Or is it more of a seasonal thing for the bigger ones?
