 Hey guys, I'm heading south to Augusta next weekend I'm doing houseboats up the Blackwood river, does anywon know what I'm likely to catch this time of year? And maybe some spots as I will have a dingy

whats the fine for fishing in freshwater lakes like kingfisha's lake? I don't want to go ever if we get fined $500 or something. Any warnings involved?

 Hey guys. I'm chasing some inform on swords and I know a few guys on here have longlined before. Rigging and setups I sort of have an idea what I'm more after is what sort of depths where they common? Are they found on the contours so more on the walls or sea mounts/ drop offs or doesn't that matter and just stick to the temp breaks?? I want to give this a good crack just trying to pile together a heap of info and go from there

Thanks in advance

 Does anyone restore their own fish hooks that are showing signs of rust?  I have replaced these on one of my favorite lures, but if I could get the rust off them, perhaps they could be recycled rather than thrown out.  Is there any particular method for restoring and is it worth the trouble?

 Hi guys just wondering if anybody had used the avet lx 6.0 mc reel and how did it go casting

not long lads,

Hi guys looking for a new real for demersals, will be used for both jigging and bait. Will the shimano shimano biomaster sw v2 work that. Has anyone had them and are they very good I cannot find much information about them on the web.

Thanks

 Hi guys, me and my dad are planning on taking the family to exmouth. The problem is we dont know much about exmouh and places to stop on the way to exmouth so i am looking for some help.

We have 7 days to go to exmouth and back as my dad is a fifo so we can't stay too long, we are planning on driving there but want to make one stop on the way as it is too long to go there in one day. Any suggestions/reccomendations will be greatly appreciated.

Also my dad and I are going to be doing a lot of fishing although we are stuck land based, the main reason we are going is to catch bigger fish. We are not too experienced when it comes to bigger fish though and we are seeking advice. Any tips on locations, rigs, baits and species caught would be very helpful. 

We will mostly be targeting Spangled Emperor and queenfish as our gear would most likely not be able to handle GT's. 

Any help is much appreciated, we just hope we won't be too disappointed

Thanks

 this is a big shark

Hello all

Looking for fellow fisho's in Margaret River to go pull cray pots with and go fishing. Hard to pull them by myself and launch and land the dinghy. If someone out there has the same problem we could combine efforts and help each other!

cheers

Let me try this again

No crabbing this season in Cockburn sounds looks like ill have to get from the river again.

Was a few decent size blues last night in the deep river!

Enjoy

 We are going out Saturday for the 1st trip of the season could use a couple of crew. Pm me if interested. ..we have all equipment. ..34 Black Watch. ...just need to share fuel...

 Hi Guys, I was out on the swan river on Tuesday taking the kids skiing, I set up my chat plotter with tracking so I can find my way back to the jetty at night after skiing for a while I noticed that I I lost the charts it was still tracking but I haven't been able to get any of the chart information back like lateral markers or any thing else like that, anybody know what has happened?  I have a navionics sd card inserted as well. 

I am planning on launching in the river on sunday morning and heading out though the harbour.

Want to get some squid first up and the navionics app tells me there is a squid spot about 0.3 nm off the rock wall of FSC.  Has anyone tried there and how was it?  I may stop here and check it out and if no good head to Parmelia bank or garden island.

Then the plan is to troll FFB for tuna or macks and keep an eye out for any sambo jigging opportunities.

Looks like the seabreeze will come in before lunch so it may be back into the river for some trolling for tailor later in the day.

 hi guys, i have heard for ages that carp are bad eating and taste like mud, so i dicided to do some reserch, i found this profetional video of this guy showing us how to cook, clean and to get rid of that muddy flavour, so heres the link, its worth a look.

Jeeeesus, go to the pub for a few hours and everything is gone. WTF happened, did Bieber have another cry or did you blokes get too abusive? Sometimes, the comedy topics are the only thing to keep the interest going :(

 if anybody owns an ocean whaler and lives North of the river would you please pm me. 

Would like to ask a couple of questions about you boat  

Many thanks.

 This might be a long shot, but working is sending me to SA next week and I will be staying near the Water in Glenelg. 

I will have an evening free so I was thinking I might try and wet a line. Has anyone got any advice for that area? 

Also, having never travelled with fishing gear, what are some tips that I should be aware of ? 

Cheers 

Hi guys, long time reader first time poster.

Me and the old man are trying crayfishing for the first time this season, but we are a bit in the dark where we should put the pots.

We have placed them on the otherside of the FFB in around 16m of water - are we wasting our time there? should we be going out deeper? have noticed alot of pots near garden island.

any help would be appreciated would be nice to get some crays for christmas!

 Has anyone had a reply on this $500 cash for a day out fishing, I sent a PM saying yep I'm semi retired only like fishing week days am a experienced boatie live in wanneroo you are woodvale fish mostly two rocks have all the spots not interested in your money happy for you to pay halves in fuel and bait ,No reply 

Hi Everyone,

In all my fishing experiences around this country and overseas, I have never been to somewhere as amazing as Shark Bay, just up from Geraldton and approximately midway in Western Australia itself.

The place which really left me speechless was a place the locals call Borals Bar.

To get to Borals Bar you will need to get a boat from Denham and go towards the salt mine operation, on the other side of the bay.

Borals Bar, from what I was told by a mine official, is where the seawater is collected, fed into the primary ponds going into the salt farm eventually extracting salt.

Now because it is a mine area you are not allowed on the gangways or water gate bridge, however you are allowed general access to Borals Bar itself, as long as you stay in your boat and fish from your boat (and don't walk around shore).

Fishing as close to the gangway at Borals Bar as possible without disturbing the mine, I have to say I have never nor caught as many snapper as I did that day.
On average I was hooking Pink Snapper at least every 1-2 mins( The locals call them 'stinky pinkies', as they get sick of catching them all the time).

There is also an abundance of Mulloway, Wrasse, Bream, Mackerel, Queen fish, Tailor and Shark.

I can't recommend this fishing area highly enough,I just wish I had allocated more time in my trip to this place!

I can only liken the place to fishing in a fish farm where you are guaranteed a fish strike and would rate it a A+++.

Good fishing and there is plenty of tackle supply stores in Denham who can show you Borals Bar on a local map if you get lost!
