Looking to do a bit of beach fishing in Bunbury over the easter break i have never fished there so if someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

 I'm heading up the creek for a couple of nights to chase a barra before the water starts cooling off. Just wondering if anyone has been getting any lately... Got some new lures to try and a brand new cast net to get caught on some snags.

 Been having an absoloute ball with some quality fish on light tackle ( 6 lb).......where abouts is a major seceret........lost the biggest Sand or Yellowfin Whiting i have ever seen the other day........i reckon he was in the 40cms range.......but then went out and caught some NICE Tailor ( 45cm) and Skippy ( Up to 40cm) All were taken on Small poppers or minnows in crystal clear shallow water. It was such a buzz watching the whole fight....the bigger Skippy would try to reach snags and weed to escape......I should have taken some more pic,s but the fishing was too good....

Just seen this on Mark bergs fishing addiction, thought it was awesome to see a monster of the deep try eat a GT.

 Hey im new to fishing but i have being around it all my life, but anyways im going to be doing beach fishing at exmouth and im wondering what size rod i need i already have a 5 - 8kg graphite berkley rod is it enough or do i need a stronger rod. Also if you have any lure recommendations for exmouth please share them thanks

 Having a couple of beers with my brotherinlaws  and can't agree on the size of a couple of dhuies we caught in 2005.Both were size we just can't agree what the legal size was back then.I think it was 500mm back then.

 And I'm talking about the fish, not ladies :)

Ok - so me and a mate are going to head out Friday night for a pretty big session of fishing. We both have rods that will handle sharks so we want to float a balloon out each and try and hook onto a shark if possible.

While we are waiting for that ever elusive bight we want to throw out some mulies for tailor or hit the bottom for some skippy (Pinkies would be nice but I know how difficult they are to get land based).

So my questions are;

1. What is the best bait for sharks? I am thinking whole mullet or any live bait that we might catch?

2. Does Woodman Point or ASI fish well these days? and is it safe to leave your car there?!

3. How about Mindarie Marina? Haven't heard of anyone catching sharks from there but you never know.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. 

Thanks

Windy Harbour this weekend or next for salmon around the point.

Hi

I have a couple reels that are in need of a service. I can't find the boxes for the life of me and don't have the spare washers etc.

Where is the best place around perth to get them serviced? Reels are a stradic ci4 2500 and a stradic 4000 (older gold model).

I don't mind NOR or SOR as long as they do a good job of them.

Cheers,

Alex

Hi All

Has anyone had any experiance with the gps units you can get that plug into the usb ports on a laptop or similiar computer. I'm looking at getting one to do away with the requirement to use my sounder/gps unit and a serial conection which is starting to give me a few problems .

All coments most appreciated.

Thanks

Really want to go done for a fish at E shed scalies or mulloway? and if the mulloway are being caught what on. Advice would be appreciated!!!

My Salmon rig for this year. Shimano Starlo Classic shore spin 902 on my Sustain 5000. 

What are the rest of you using ?

 I was just reading one of the posts from the For Sale and some one had a problem with scammers 

 I was thinking, just maybe how about we make it that we have to have (100/200) posts before we can buy and Sell and swap ( this is just ME ) 

i don't want to cause any problems, this is just an idea. I want to see more people putting more into the site with pics, posts and comments good and bad to what we all are doing 

 Fishwrecked is getting bigger and better day by day and we all would be happier with out those people 

  This is just an idea 

                                  Jeff

   Ps: Ads or any of our moderators if this is going to cause to many problem please delete it ASAP 

Bugger can't fish out of Perth this weekend cause I'm Flying to karratha friday to get onto the true north and go to the Monte bellos for 5 days of fishing snorkeling and helicopter flights eating shit food had a ticket for the missus and she knocked it back god I'm gonna have a bad time hehe

Has any body tried these off the beach? I got a mould from the states a few months ago and ive found them the best holding sinker ive had in the sand.

Are stellas rally worth the amount of money they are and worth getting

 I have linked my VHF radio emergency signal to the GPS and don't know how to test if it works.

Tried to explain it to a chap from rocko rescue but he was of an older vintage than I and and was no help.

Any ideas?

Hey guys been trawling these forums for awhile but this is my first post ^.^
Me and some mates are heading down to margaret river to do some rock climbing but I thought I'de probably wet a line at the same time.
Was just wondering what kinda fish species will be around the beaches, my first thoughts would be whiting, tailor, herring and skippy? If anyone could let me know if im on the right track would be great since I havent really fished around there before. Also would any beach produce? We're gonna be camping at Contos camp ground which has a few beaches near by that I could get to. Are there any other places which may be better keeping in mind that I probably wont hav 4wd access. Look fowarding to hearing back from you guys =D

 So who got amongst it today at trigg.  Unfortunately I had to work, but over 100 bronzies up for grabs off the beach. 

Would have been a lot of fun. 

 What strategies do you guys use for fishing the 4 mile out from port geographe marina?

Guys,

Anyone have any info on these reels?.

Also a rod to suit for offshore jigging??.

Cheers

HI Guys,

Did anyone have any luck off shore out of Dunsborough on the weekend just gone??.

Travelled some miles for not much success??.

Cheers,

 Hi guys,

I have been lucky enough to be given a Stella 5000sw as a farewell gift from work.

Awesome reel and fits into my range very well. (thanks to my son giving the necessary advise to my work colleagues).

Can anyone suggest a good one piece rod to suit. Want to be able to cast poppers, lure and plastics but also ok for bottom bouncing. Would think something around 61/2 to 7 foot?

 heading down to denmark and i have heard greens pool is a nice place. i have also heard that it is a sanctuary and cant fish there. although i cant find any info on it. does anyonr know anything about this???

 planning a trip out to the fads sometime soon wanting to catch my first mahi mahi just wondering what gear to use spin reels or overhead. what size line? and also which lures do you all have best resualts with?? 

  all comments much appreciated.

 Caught this in Exxy last week, any ideas?

Its head looked way too big for its body...

Heading up to Exxy in May and was wondering where should I be staying. Mate and I will have our wives in tow and they are thinking  a house in the Marina , we are thinking a chalet around the lighthouse caravan park or Yardie caravan park. We have a 5m ali. Will be happy getting tuna and macks and not to bothered about bottom dwellers. Seems to be the go to launch on the western side and fish behind the reef but was wondering if there are many pelagics caught on the gulf side thus saving a fair hike with the boat each day if we lose out to the women. Just remember...'a happy wife is a happy life' ;-)

 How's the salmon season shaping up this year? Is the water cooling down? Any reports what's going on along the coast up as far as Dunsborough?

I'm not a freediver or into crayfishing but one of the crew is ( coming from Sydney for the trip ) Heading to Exmouth in a couple of weeks and he wanted to know if we could drop a couple of pots for Crays . Told him I think there are only Painted Creys up that way and they don't go into pots ( not sure ). I have never seen any pots up there .

Am I correct in saying that ?, and the only way to get them is to dive and snare them ?

If you can snare them are they any good to eat ?

Cheers

Paul

top 2 for mighty pies!
