Anyone heading out fishing thIs weekend?
Hoping to head out from Woodies on Sunday, wondering if will be ok in morning or bit choppy with forecasted easterlies

 Was talking to my old boss last night and he was telling me that he just done a 5 day Abrolhos charter with Top Gun 2 charters and said one day the fishing was very slow.

He was munching on some lollie snakes, when he decided to put one on the hook (A Green one) he said.

The end result was he hooked the only fish on that drift and it also was the biggest spanglie for the whole 5 day trip and of course it was on the lollie snake..

what is your unusual bait???

what time of the year do the pinkies start coming in close to the rocks at the moles or beaches in perth? i have been told that winter time when the swell is up is a good time to get them.

Gday guys

I am in a quandry, and so i turn to fishwrecked...

In october theres an opportunity for my brother-in-law and i to take our dads fishing for a week or so to hopefully kill the pig, and hence a small return on the favours they have done us as tackers intorducing us to fishing. With requisite permissions from mrss etc you can imagine this is a rare treat and one that may never arise again, so important to make the most of it. And so the thinking starts, but alas:

Too windy up north in October and too cold down south

Pinkies around FFB etc is too close and no real getaway, and too hit n miss besides

No tuna in tassy by then I don’t think.

Abrolhos boats not operating then either.

Too windy for montes.

Too early for Barra

Old boys too old for roughing it in some FNQ bush camp. Need accom really.

Andamans too expensive I’m sure - along with most exotic charters/camps

What is Malaysia like then? wrong season for sails isnt it?

Happy to chuck a few bucks at it but we are both gonna have to shout the old fellas a trip so it has to be SEMI- affordable too

Long list huh? That’s why I couldn’t come up with anything.

Farrrk!

so - there is no bigger wealth of fishing knowledge and advice that i know of, if you have a sugestion, please let me know!

Cheers all.

Its always nice to report great customer service!!

Ordered a new rod from Campbell’s pro tackle in Leederville yesterday around 3pm and it arrived in Carnarvon today before lunch!!!!  The guys were super helpful and made great recommendations.

One super happy customer

luv to go landbased or boatfishing for a milk fish,have no gear here but will pay my way

Gday fisho's - I hear the demersal fishing is pretty good out of two rocks. Sunday looking flat so I thought i would give it a go. Problem is ive never been out from there so any tips or advice would be great. I know nobody will give their favourite spots away maybe just point me in the right direction and what depths should i be looking for Ive got a 19 foot voyager and I go out 50 kms regularly to the FADs so no problem to go out wide. If anybody is going out maybe I can follow along if thats OK

Cheers Dave 

Hey everyone,

Booked in for a 11 night cruise from Brisbane in late July to Pacific (Vanuatu/New Caledonia) which I can't wait for and just wondering if anyone has done any of the fishing charters they offer and if they have any suggestions/info on it. From what I can see there are a few different ones you can go on at some different ports. It's not a fishing holiday obviously so I'll only be going on 1 so any replies by anyone whos done it before would be really appreciated

Cheers,

Brett

 looking to head out sunday if anyone got a spot  same goes split fuel etc got liscence and skippers  pm if got spot. Cheers marko.

so on Tuesday me and my dad went fishing near mums point near shelly and court some whopper bream at 42cm and some small flatties but we where rigged up for mulloway with ganged hooks and Wight bait but we where unsuccessful and I was wondering if mulloway still swam near mums point because we go fishing there every Tuesday at high tide and the last time we court one was 7 years ago so is there none there or are we doing something wrong?

 recommendations required for good quality (non rusting) split ring pliers???  my cheap set have rusted, but even before that, they didnt handle the smaller split rings very well.

what brands work, and last?

my immobiliser as just shat itself and iv taken all of the wiring out of my car for it and my car still wont turn over can anyone help us out?

name your price

just wondering where to go to buy a GPS unit. i am looking at the Lowrance Elite 5m GPS chartplotter. can anyone recomend a store. Thanks.

Hi guys i currently live in Karratha and love the fishing and out door activitys, will be moving to toodyay at the end of the year and was wondering if anyone knew if there was redfin in the avon river, or black bream 

Hi guys

I see some new styles of rods coming in for lure casting. They are often call Sea Bass or Sea Jigger rods. What is the difference between the 2 styles. It seems to me that the Sea Bass rods are much slower in their action while the Sea Jigging rods are stiffer. Does this seem about correct?

Basically I am looking for a rod to use for salmon, tailor and if lucky (unlucky) small YTK's at rotto. Mainly casting 2oz poppers and plugs, 60g slices, but also stick baits. I have looked at the NS Hurricanes in the lighter models but the cast rating is quite low...but still a bloody nice rod.

Any comments appreciated.

Cheers

Brad

Anyone been to Coral Bay in the last month chasing sails and or Marlin?

Just wondering the best depth at the moment and if NW out of the North passage is currently the best option?

Any info would be great.

 Just trying to get some research and have mixed findings. Some sites say the wind is still good in Exxy in September and boat fishing and diving is great. Others saying, window is closed and shit house.

What have people hear experienced in the last year or two?

Cheers

Just wondering if this is the time of year for YFT? Haven't really targeted them before but me and a mate just went chasin' some birds. Wheeling and diving it was pretty obvious (we saw a few tuna launch). I'm a big tuna virgin so I'm puttin it at around 18-20kg (I'm 6'3 and 95). Any other estimates?? Suggestions for more?? Lure types/set-ups?

 probably a stupid question, this is all new to me. we have just bought our first boat. it has a furuno ls4100 fish finder on it but im not too sure how to set it up. we probably wont be in any water over 40M. what do i set it on 50 or 200 kHs?

also if anyone has one or used to have one what are they like and can you get them to work as GPS?

Thanks

 It's that time of year again! Anyone else going to carnarfin this year?

Is tomorrows (32km west-nor-west) wind any good for fishing.

If so where on the jetty? What for? How?

 would any one like to part with there bait collecting spot on the boat we leave from freo or hillaries found one spot wear we get yellow tail and scalies but wold like some wear a bit more consisant and would love to no wear the slimy macs hang

 is it mandatory to have an epirb on your vessel? 

Can you receive phone reception at Ningaloo station, precise position at the shearers quarters.

Cheers for any info.

Thankyou
