Hey guys, 

heading to Busso/Quindalup next week for school holidays. Hanging to get out for a fish and considering night fishing for squid or other species. Have an underwater light set up for prawning and wondering if this would be helpful for squid. Thoughts? 

Also planning to get to the 4 or 8 mile reef or artificial reefs as well. Is there much around at the moment? Going to spend some time if possible getting to know my sounder better and search some ground. 

 Hey guys just wondering what ur using as sinkers past 400m. I've tried 90 mm PVC filled with concrete but seems to light for the size and getting caught up in the current. I recently change my cv joints and axels so I've cut them up and welded a hoop on them. Just after other people's thoughts as lead isn't exactly a cheap option any more. Hears a photo of what I'm trying to get down to cheers

Does anybody know of fiber glass repairer? I have been working on my boat for nearly a year now (its a long story) and now I just dont have the time to finish it off.

BTW I am aware of the site sponsor Cobalt Blue Marine but I am just keeping my options open.

Hi Guys headed out from Two Rocks on Monday with conditions being unfavorable we bounced our way out to about he 6nm mark where we found some cray pots, we then decided to drift from there as we didn't have any ground that was marked in the area and my deckie was now sea sick so didn't want to punish him any more. After a couple of drifts over the area had a nice hook up 6kg dhuie was landed, bled and dispatched into the esky. Proceeded to drift the area and caught three more dhuies all under sized and all released successfully. Conditions made for a tough day out but all worth it in the end. As a newbie to this caper I'm pretty sure I was fishing onto of the reef direction bank anybody know the area well enough to confirm this? Next time I want to hit up the 10nm mark with better conditions and a healthy deckie.

 Thinking about heading down to Alexandra Bridge for couple of nights.

Anyone fished down here recently?

What's it like this time of year?

Enjoy

 Hi guys, 

In the box of a new Shimano reel that I recently recieved there was a card with do's and don'ts etc. on it.

To my surprise one of the don'ts was "Don't hose your reel to remove salt etc. as this tends to drive the salt and the dirt inside the reel."

This kinda seems logical but I have always been told to give the reels a spray down after each use.

Just wanted to know people's thoughts on what the best way to rinse/clean reels after salt water use is.

Cheers

Going back 2 weeks ago now i made purchase for a saltiga reel

the guys name was

Sean Murphy

he said he was located in Telfer WA

we spoke over text messages he sent me pictures of the reel and described its condition, saying how it had not much use etc

we spoke about fishing for a bit and i was quite happy to make purchase for the reel

he said he payment via bank deposit was fine

he was with the commonwealth bank and so was i

he passed onto me his account details bsb number account name and number

he assured me he would post it the next day and send me the express post tracking number.

i made the deposit and next day came i messaged him in the arvo to see if he had got the tracking number

i wanted to know roughly when i would be recieving the reel as it was for a present.

his reply was sorry mate i left the reel with my misses when i get home after work i will text it you.

i said ok no dramas

the night came and i didnt recieve no text so i texted him the next day being saturday by now and never recieved a reply, tried the next day

still no reply.

i waited a few days to see if the parcel would arrive give or take a few days from WA to SA

every day i tried calling his number and it just dialled then went to message bank.

i had a feeling that i was being played around, i was pretty pissed off so i gave it till friday to allow for a week

still nothing no replies nothing at all.

i rang the bank and notified them of this and they said they would look into it and send out letters to the guy notifing them they need to send back the money or send the item.

has any one had any of these scams before?

does any one know this so called Sean Murphy from Telfer Wa?

i cant believe some one could do this putting their identity and bank details and running off with the cash, its not as if it was a fake person on pay pal

To register with any bank account identification needs to put put forward

so i cant see how this guy is trying to get away with this

he cant be fake he must be real

if any one knows this guy please let me no know

Pretty pissD off as any one would be

 Hi everyone,

Planning a trip to Harvey Dam tomorrow. Just wondering if camping is permitted around the dam? 

We were planning on arvo/evening session and a early morning session so camping would be prime! 

Heard there are a few trout about, is it best to look for weed areas or grass banks? 

Cheers!

Jase.

 Looking at going for a ride on the jet ski tomorrow morning to freo fishing boat harbour for a ride, trying to find out the distance from the sea rescue boat ramp to the fishing boat harbour. Fuel won't be an issue, if it is I can refuel there. 

Any ideas on time it would take doing about 15 knots? Have to be told to sit on Eco mode the whole trip to save on fuel (4000) revs.

 Got married on the weekend and if there was one thing that I wanted to have a say in, it was photos! First stop was on me and we got half an hour of fishing photos. Little did the wife know I had my rod set up and I was acually fishing on the wedding day no bites but still a day I will  never forget. Its true what they say all the planning and waiting and when it arrives its over in the blink of an eye. Heres just one of the many photos to come.

 Anyone on here either make custom stainless bait boards or can recommend someone who does. 

Preferably nor but not critical. 

 Finally going for a fish. Are there any changes for 2014 that aren't in the 2013 book? Is there a new book and sticker? Thank you in advance

Went down to one my usual haunts on the swan river tonight in hope for some tailor but no luck. Ended up catching a trumpter which was used as a livie and after about 20 minutes i saw the line tighten up with the line pulling off. Missed the opportunity for the hook up but when i was reeling the line back in, the trumpeter was smashed and mushy. just the head remaining, and the hooks looked like they had been crushed. Anyone got any ideas at to what it might have been?

 Just a quick ??? How much would u sell u 1 year old 75L engel combi for? With cover and it's only been used about 4 times it still pretty much brand new. 

Cheers

Hi guys, i know the north mole is open from 7am to 6pm. Does anyone know when it will be open 24/7 again? Also when they say 7-6 what will they do if you stay longer? Or do they just close the gates?
Just asking as i dont wanna drive 45 min to find out the north mole is closed.

 Just tasted queen snapper for the first time. Most people I've spoken to about it think its not very good eating. I thought it was quite tasty. 

 Hey guys,

I was considering doing a Two Rocks mission in the next few weeks. Just wondering if anyone's caught any Dhufish there recently. Also would you go out deep or in at 10 meters as I've heard different info.

cheers. 

Hey all, got to get some kms up on the Subaru or I will get hit with another tax bill :( ... so heading to Kalbarri next Monday through Thursday. Decided not to tow the tinny as its not the place to be going out solo. Just going to be land based. If any members are going to be there and want to meet up for a fish flick me a PM.

cheers.

 Is there any interest out there to ask Adam to create separate folders for the common sounder makes / models.  We can each then put sounder shots into the relevant folders and compare the quality we could / should be getting and discuss settings for that particular sounder?

Anyone fished Logue Brook Dam recently?

Thnking about heading up for a night or two and keen for a fish. 

 At one of my local Tailor haunts I have noticed tightly bunched up schools of Tailor.

Does anyone know if this is type of behaviour would be indicitive of spawning.

I have kept 1 or 2 smaller specimens and have found no roe.

 They seem to have been hanging in the same area for at least couple of weeks  and are still keen to hit lures. ( Yahoo! )

Has anyone else seen similar activities in their area?

 A mate and i are headin over to the southern most island in a couple weeks, just chasin a bit of info on some lures or placstics that you have had sucsess on for dermersals, and would it be worth a troll for tuna or mackies or still a bit cold i did see it was up to 23 degrees in some spots so was thinkin it was a possibility?

Hi everyone

I'm planning to head north from Perth for a 3 or 4 day fishing trip early next month, but I'm not too sure where's good this time of year. I was thinking about kalbarri or jurien bay. Did a bit of reading and got the impression kalbarri was more of a winter spot. Would I be better off going to jurien or somewhere else instead?

It'd be a land based trip, unless I can get myself and the missus a spot on a charter. Would really appreciate anyone's advice about where to go as well as local hot spots if you're feeling generous, as this is gonna be my first time heading up north. Don't mind beach/rock/jetty fishing/ballooning... Anything really.

PS Seasport is running a charter at kalbarri at the moment, would it be worth giving that a go at this time of the year?

 Thanks
