What do you guys think about the forecast for the comp?

Just wondering if anyone uses this rod and what sort of punishment it has been put through. I like fishing light and Im hopin this rod will handle some decent fish. I got bugger all responses in the jigging forum.

hey all,

talked the mrs into goin to coraly bay again in july and a friend was nice enough to lend me his tinny, inside the reef what would i expect to get trolling? get ya trevally and queenies but what about small macks? am i better off trolling next to the reef in more open water or near the shore? or should i just burley up big time with a few floating mulies? any info would be swell! cheers!

Guys,

Going to Kalbarri for 10 days from 13th to 22nd April and was thinking of getting out for a day with a charter mob.....Anyone had any experience with any of the charters there?

Alternatively if there is anyone who lives around that way who would like to make some extra cash by taking 3 blokes out for a day PM me.  All three of us are normally land based so would really need someone with a bit of patience!

Cheers.

 Hey guys,

I was wondering when fishing at the e shed does everyone cast out to the middle on in close? I'm curious because if cast out how does everyone combat the current? I have searched most of the threads can't really find the answer 

Also what lure do u guys reckoned for bonito??? 

couple of mates, got bored one arvo, decided to go fishing in the lake, one of the most stupids ideas i thort

this is wat happens

I'd like to install a fish finder or sounder to my Finn Beachcomber kayak. Was just wondering if anyone has modified their Yak with a piece of equipment like this? I don't really want to spend any more than $200, and i really just need something basic, just to tell me the depth and maybe identify different bottom structure.

Any feedback would be much appreciated, cheers.

Do you get GTs this far south ? Decided to go for a fish over the weekend off 3 mile. Was letting out a live bait when it got smashed by something that looked like a GT just under the boat. Got cut off as it darted under my hull.

looking at getting a new reel want something thats not gonna break the budget to much and can use to cast lures from shore and a little bit of light jigging from the boat?

Howdy, havn't posted much here i usually just lurk the forums but i need advice about boat fishing. I'm getting my skippers ticket through my school, im getting it this thursday at the boat shed at freo. In my garage is a 12ft tinny with a 15hp motor that no one has used in a while and i was hoping once i get my ticket, me and my older brother could try fishing somewhere around the metro area but i really have no idea where. I have also made sure the boat has flares and lifejackets.

Does anyone know any good spots where theres not too much chop and theres a chance of catching something decent?

Cheers,
Fisherman Mikey.

This is just unbelievable

The first part of this just looks like an awesome screen saver, but watch it & see what this girl does to that one shark near the end ......

was fishing in bay at narrow neck and picked up a small spangled emperor about 19-21 cm, no pictures but a mate on the site who was there can vouch for me, has anyone had a catch like this in southern waters? 

 G'day, I've been searching the fisheries and DEC website's and after reading a jumble of marine park proposals and links that don't seem to work, can someone please tell me where I can and can't fish in Exmouth.  Namely from the beach and mostly near the Lighthouse Caravan Park.  Many thanks

what hooks and size have you found to bee the best when rigging ur own tuna skirts?

and whats your favorite skirts?

thanks

 please i am going soon need to know

heading up north this weekend to try locate a few deep holes, gutters etc.

Was just wondering what people use in the way of tackle:

What pound line 20lb? or heavier? Braid or mono?

How heavy do you go for sinkers?

What size baits?

The reason im asking is im trying to get as much possible distance as i can, i've tried a few different things but havnt been able to get much distance.

I have a 3 m shimano surf rod that seems to do the trick.

Open to any suggestions or recommendations as im starting to go more often

Cheers,

Jamie

Hi all,

Ive been searching for a recent report but havent been able to find one. hoping to get a feed of squid, few kgs, and if the weather is good push out a bit. never know may even find a school of salmon if Im lucky. 

Any reports/stories would be apreciated so I can load the boat up with the right gear.

Cheers and I hope you all have a great trip planned for the long weekend to catch the big ones.

Any info would be appreciated

Thanks

Went for a fish out of Mindarie on Sunday - Now I'm in bloody Tom Price   - WORKING

Anyway, just wondering if I'm the laziest bloke in WA OR is their someone else out there day dreaming about their next fishing trip !

Where are you day dreaming ??????????????

Heard some reports off salmon schools around. from capel down through to eagle bay schools were seen not big but 5-7 kilo. Also mates off mine went down to marlamup and caught 8 decent size ones there...

Good singns lets hope they come in thick this year...

found these on ebay anyone used them?

they claim to prevent fish throwing hooks when jumping and they claim a better catch rate

they are cslled Matzuo Black Sickle Octopus Fishing Hooks

Anyone know what this fish is - millions in the sound...??

Any good for bait or burley?

 Hi all. I have a spare satiga dogfight and was wondering if i could put the high gear into a red saltiga S-extreme 6500 

need the S-extreme on a custom rod but want a high gear ratio. currently have a stella 20000 on it but it lives on another rod  

cheers

I like the look of these 2 reels, mainly for a bit of bottom work in 20-60m of water and maybe a bit of jigging.

Price difference is minimal but the saltist is 200g lighter. Line capacity isn't an issue with either.

Can't decide on which reel?

 Hey guys just asking if anyone had fished or know anyone who has fished off the rocks or. Beach near port geographe marina in busseltOn?

 G'day guys just thought I'd let use all know went down to freo last night just off the wharf very good nights fishing caught a 18 kg mulloway was a blast! First one :) also a few ray hook ups lots of scaleys in the erea for good live bait place seems to be great ATM with a guy next door to me catching a nice long tail tuna the night before weather this is true or not is another question. 

Looking at blinging up the Hyper with a new knob... Having a few issues trying to remove the old one. Anyone done this before that could give me some pointers?

Have done this before with my Talica and Luvias DA and it was a pretty straight forward process, but am stuggling with the Hyper.... It appears to have the usual two screws holding the plate in place on top of the reel, but not even the smallest jewlers screwdriver or even allen key (tried that!) seems to fit in it. It honestly doesnt look like it should be suited to either.

Anyone have any experience with changing a Hyper knob give me the heads up on how this is done?

Cheers!

 Found a sambo elite 24-37kg game rod full rollered for sale. Has anyone got one or used one? Why did u think to it? Are they worth getting?

Hey guys,

am heading to NZ for 5 weeks over christmas this year and know fly fishing is big over there.. is it worth learning how before i go?

also any places i should go for snapper? and any other species? ;) 

cheers, Jase

 Not sure if anyone got that before ....

No shallow reef or shelter, and 35-40cm Tailor was hammering the jigs and whole live bait, on the bottom, in 40m water depth, around 8pm last night!! Is that usual for Tailor?
