Hi All

Had a fish yesterday morning down at quinns beach for tailor 5-9am without success! Was bloody cold! im thinking bout heading up to yanchep/club capricorn and try there? Or Mindarie marina? Any suggestions would be great? Ive had a few fishless trips of late

Cheers

Going out for the first fish in the new dinghy tomorrow and would like to get off to a good start with a couple of bream. We were goint to try Canning/ Mt Henry Bridge and around some snags in Rossmoyne/ Shelley area. Does anyone know where they are hiding?

Cheers

Hey all

I was wondering whats the "best" bait that you can buy for mulloway?

Hi guys,

like many others in Perth, we had fence damage in the storms.  I need a quote (insurance job) to remove a rear limestone wall and steel gates, and remove a side boundary fence (some super six, some asbestos) damaged in the storms, and replace both rear fence (including 2 x sets double gates) and side boundary fence with colorbond. 

I would prefer the job to go to FW member, so if you are in that business or can recommend someone, please PM me your contact details. I am located in Mosman Park.

Cheers,  Peter

After posting about the new Stella combo I was thinking what would be your LOTTO winniing setup. Or it could be the Bucket list.

Lets keep it fairly simple.

1. Bream and light inshore.

2. Beach

3. Light spin.

4. Heavy spin

5. GT Popper

6. Light jig/heavy jig

7. Light troll

8. Marlin slayer

9. Barra buster

10.Last but not least -ultimate Fly combo

When I briefly did this list I realised how diverse this magical past time is. There is endless more p[ossibilities, but this will cover my LOTTO winning list.

I wont even start but Alutecnos all the way for Saltwater OH. Stella's for most sin. Rods OMG.

Enjoy

Yes, Lost the Stella 8000SW overboard. FKN shark suddenly got a life, kicked and the leader ripped through my hands. As quick as a flash - gooone. Few swear words and man tears drowned by amber fluid and I am in for a replacement.

Thinking about a heavy weight combo, not needing a GT popper rod or reel, but after that, as good as it gets.

Thinking StellaSW10000 and Samurai Jig10.

Or for the Stella SW 10000 what is another top rod.. $$ an option, but lets face it, if I am gonna get a Stella its NOT.

Cheers

Hi , Could someone ID please.Caught about 30 KM out from Woodmans Point.

Thanks

 Hey guys,

Just wondering if you's know of any local (metro - rocko, etc) spots at the moment where me and my mate could catch some fish or squid?

Have a small tinny which we can take out, and plan to go in the morning.

Went recently and caught 15 gardie over 40cm, one got to 55cm.

Thanks heaps :)

Tasmanian import here, (dont hold that against me) and love this site. I am excited by the prospect of doing some decent beach fishing on these fantastic beaches around Mandurah. I have to invest on a beach rod though. My question is, are the cheap "Big W" rods and reels ok, or should I invest in a better rod and reel. I should point out that I am quite a novice.

Cheers

Now this may be a stupid question, so dont laugh too hard.

I've bought sump 7" Gulps & was wondering which way up I should  hook them?

There is a big groove, should the hook come out in the groove, or should it come out opposite the groove??

Thanks.

After having a cylinder down on one of my Yamaha 115 4-stroke and finally putting it down to a blocked fuel injector I was told by a boat sales and service shop NOR that they are a throw away item and to replace it. $295 for one!! I whipped them out and took them to an injection shop, $40 bucks a pop to get cleaned, picked 'em up the next day and now my boat runs like a dream. In fact since I got all four done I now have heaps more grunt in that starboard motor so I am going to get the port motor done now.

My point is...don't take all advice from boat places as gospel. Do some research yourself and you will save loads of cash.

Hey Guys....

i Realise that a fcv 295 will be better than a 585... but just wanna know peoples opinions on both units is the 295 just a bigger screen with same capabilities?

i am looking at a 585 at the moment for my new tub (6.8m Barcrusher) and just wanna see what other people think of these units so i dont make a decision i may regret down the track...

Cheers

couldnt figure out how to put it in the other one. but got this one 4 others an 3 big dhus at about 10:30 one night on a lump 42 to 47m

have heard and been confirmed that they are no longer producing any s-extreme reels from production

im still not overly conviced that the new 2010/2011/2012 are any good like the old saltigas

i mite have to pick a 6500 extreme up before its too late

cheapest i have found is $999

wonder who can beat that id sure buy another?

What do you blokes think about crimped rigs? ie drolpine swivels and crimping sleeves

If anyone fishes Mindarie marina, I was walking along the Northern part of it today(up near the park) and there were 2 Samson's about 15-20kg swimming along about 2m out from the rocks. I reckon a couple of mulies and you would have some serious fun!

just wondering what species would there be out off hopetoun area

Gday Guys

Hey guys, can't remember if this has been raised before but was just curious about peoples experiences with using jigs or SP's at night. Any success?

A mate of mine raised this with me the other day and I had no idea how it would go. I would think SP's would go OK, dunno about jigs?

Any thoughts appreciated.

Cheers

I have had the pleasure of flying to Port Headland and staying the night for work. Have finished the job and now sitting here drinking wondering what to do. Any one in town going fishing and want a tagalong let me no. Or any suggestions on what to do? I dont fly out until 9:00am tomorrow.

 i have recently noticed that allot of daiwa stuff is on backorder in allot of stuff and have been told that they are bad with keeping stores stoked with there goods, anyone know the reason for this or have an idea, being a huge daiwa fan i wouldnt mind finding out

Hi people just in search for a few scaley macks , just curious is anyone has caught a heap lately in freo at the e sheds and the woodys point jetty .  cheers

Lookin to use 5" jerk shads/ 110mm flick baits and 7" jerk shads/145mm flickbaits, just wonderin wot size hooks are ideal for each. Do people use diff hook sizes say with the 5" if targeting flatties or pinkies. Im not refering to weight, I mean the gape size

Hows it going all,

I'm after getting a half day off work, need a break so im heading to hilarys today for a few hours.

Just wondering has anyone any reports over the last few days?

Is it worth my while to try Ocean reef maybe??  Any suggestions would be great.

Im not heading away for another hour or so. So any updates in that time would be great. Cheers.

 Is there a way to stop braid cutting into your finger when casting?

Do gloves fix this? Tried some gloves from work (ninja mechanics gloves) and the first cast cut straight through them.

A mate emailed me this ridiculous bloody thing.

I cant believe they are being serious!

I'm tempted to buy one for a laugh and go do a jigging charter with Whitey using it or something

 Hey guys,

We go out to Busso jetty a bit to catch squid. Just wondering if there is anywhere else south that has as many or more?

Don't have a boat so will have to be off jetty or shore.
