Went to Rotto the other weekend to give the Gopro 3 Black a whirl. 
Underwater footage from the camera is amazing! Even though the remote did break.

 Hi guys just wondering what braid you are running on your electric reel? I want to get best quality braid I can for it, 

 i was wondering where my best bet would be to get some garfish as i love there taste. north of river and i also have a runabout if it helps and whats the technique you guys use?

 So if I decide I want to use wire , what wire leader is best and what length?

the premade ones I have are short (40 cm) and snap swivels look bit dodgy.

not super keen on own made ones as tried the weld type and was not sure it would hold? Want lure to swim true.

how many roll the dice and don't use wire at all?

need help/advice on catching whiting around carnac/garden island. just seem to get millions of wrasse/butterfish and trumpeters and cant find or catch any simple whiting (or KG's). any advice would be much appreciated.

hey guys just wondering what was going on at hillarys today

Anyone get out there today ???. We went and found the going tough one 700 mm dhuie and two blackkarse, was a great day weather wise but north current and north wind fish were not playing the game for us. How did everyone else far????,

 Guys and Gals where are some fishing spots north of the river doesn't matter what type of species it is just some spots not exact spots just rough locations thanks.

Any ideas?

 Today's effort from Albany, lost of differnt styles covered with plenty of sambos and grouper around and some far to friendly sharks on a morning dive. 

Went to chase some bream on the flats in waist deep water and hard bodies on 2lb and got about 30 bream in a few hours with a few fish pushing 40cm so not a bad effort for a novice and my second time fishing hard bodies.

Went and threw some lures in the arvo at some reefs and ended up with a few salmon smashing th on sunset so a very busy day with a lot of fun.

 Hi, I have an old X51 lowerance.  I am prepared to spend up to $500 and would like a colour model preferably 5" screen at least.  Can anyone give some suggestions of best brand, model and where best to buy.  Any advice would be appreciated.  I also want one that I can get good definition of what the bottom is, hard, soft , weed etc.

Hi all,

Looking at going crabbing tomorrow and looking at the tides, it's a good start but flattens out to not much of anything later in the morning.

What's the thoughts with crabbing? Does the no run, no fun rule still apply in the river or do you think that without a big current ripping, the little blighters come out for dinner and look around more area?

Cheers

 G'day all just wondering if anyone uses these rods I got a bs215  7ft spin rod and rate it highly but can't seem to find any around wouldn't mind getting a couple more for the kids to use. Any feedback good.

Cheers Carry

I know it's not fishing related but I thought some of you may enjoy some snapshots from today's outing. It's a great event and well worth a trip out of the city. Lots more happens but we only had so much time.

 Hi all I don't often post up but would appreciate some help on where to go for a fish tomorrow .

I have fished little island some years ago for herring and skippy in my old dinghy.

I have a 4,5 Savage Surfari now with GPS and a sounder so I  am more confident to head  out a bit more .

The weather looks great so I am keen to try some deeper water.

I am not asking for exact spots as I'm sure they are well guarded but I only get out a few times a year at best so I am very respectful of over fishing an area.

Thanks to all those who help out 

cheers coley

Hey Guys

Pretty bizarre occurence, but we lost our bait board last night travelling from Bundegi Ramp to Exmouth, seems it blew off the back of the boat. Went back and a had a look last night when i figured out what happened, but couldnt see it so figured someone may have picked it up.

If anyone knows of a found roadside baitboard please let us know, plenty of reward beers on offer.

Cheers

Gonna head up for the easter weekend, have never been in there, imagine it will be friggin busy like everywhere else. Will trawl through the search function in the next couple weeks, but just wanting any general tips or advice for where to go etc. Will be landbased with a Prado (the soccer-mum's 4x4 of choice). I'm thinking I'll try for Tailor and Mulla off the beach, have heard of snapper and Dhuis off the rocks?

Also if anyone else will be up there and wants to have a beer or fish then drop us a pm.

cheers

hey guys has any 1 fished up there im looking at going saturday night if so whats parking like how far do you have to walk and does the jetty have lights

thanks sam

 Hi guys I'm wanting to buy some herring and Gardies (bigger than penci)l for bait on a trip I'm leaving on tomorrow and was wondering if anyone is going out tonight and may get some extras. I'm willing to pay a bit towards them. I know I can buy them anywhere but I thought some kids might like some extra cash and have fun at the same time. PM me if anyone is interested. Prefer NOR. Cheers

Hey fellas, i've been keen to get into yak fishing for a while and I just picked up myself a lifetime angler 3 fishing kayak off gumtree (205kg carrying capacity, 2 seats)

Im new to this whole kayaking business but pretty damn keen and i was hoping for a bit of advice. I've done some river fishing with pretty slim pickings and im hoping to take it out into the ocean.

Can anyone tell me some good beginner spots in the ocean to paddle out from? Just somewhere where myself and maybe a mate can paddle out without having to worry about getting smashed the hell up by waves haha. I'm keen to catch anything, as long as there are plenty biting (except blowies) - its hard to get my mates or girlfiend into fishing when you float around for an hour without catching a thing haha

Anyway, much appreciated fellas.

Paul

Enjoy
