I just purchased one of these smartcast sounder which is seems to working very well for me, especially being a landbased angler it really gives me and advantage of finding structure and fish.

I was just wondering has any purchased or tried one of these out? Anyone have any opionions?

 hey can anyone  tell me where i can find maps of the swan (  depths sand bars )  a nortacal map

Fished the Mosman Bay, Freshwater Bay areas for bream twice this week. Both times from about mid morning to early arvo and using coral prawns and bass minnows, atomic grubs, even gulp sandworms in camo and blood...

Cant seem to find fish.. I dont know what the hell im doing wrong... maybe im not patient enough but all that we kept landing was blowie after blowie and another blowie....

landed a leatherjacket this morning, (although that woulda been a fluke) and the other day, one undersized bream.....

Theres gotta be something im doing wrong... if one of you sly river fisho's can work it out, ill buy you a beer!

ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WTF IS GOING ON?!?~!? Just cant find them!~

"Ferocious, pack-feeding jumbo squid have invaded waters off California's central coast and are devouring local fish populations. Researchers say global warming and overfishing are likely to blame."

G'day guys

Does anyone purchase filleting knives online? I have a good 6 inch blade and about an 8 inch one but they are very thin and a little too flexible for my liking at the moment. I'm looking for something around the 9 inch range but to be 2-3 inch deep and have good strength for cutting through the tougher stuff. I would ultimately like to buy online because there aren't too many cheap options up here in Exmouth. I've had a bit of a look at ebay stores in the U.S but the postage is almost three times as much as the knife. I'm looking between the $40 and $100 mark and any advice re- knife or where to purchase would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Just did my tax return on e-tax last night and looks like I'll be getting a pretty nice sum. Although most of it will be going towards Rowley Shoals 2008 trip I think a nice little Calcutta TE200GT will be coming my way very shortly. Watch out barra!

So what will you be treating yourself with?

Just checked out swell & wave data and Rotto is boasting a combination of sea and swell nearly 10m...

Cheers,

Because of the recent weather its been pretty hard to get out fishing so im going to head down around dwellingup tommorow. Can anyone give me some tips on any dams or rivers to fish around there

Cheers luke

I recently purchased a Penn boat rod from Bluewater Tackle in Melville ($250).

We headed off to Exmouth....first day trip out and it snapped off approx 30cm from the top of the rod after I had something big on (which got away).

I thought, Shyte! This shouldn't happen!!

Anyway, I went to Bluewater Tackle in Exmouth (an independently owned franchise) and they replaced it by flying one in the next morning from Perth. It had the reel on it by 11:00am the day after it snapped-they didn't even ask for a receipt!

Great service and I commend their business to you!

Cheers,

is now a good time for some squidding????im goin about now.....unfortunately i do not know much info bout squid.....tips would be great....

Gonna head down to the causeway at point samson tonight for a fish. Low tide at 8.50pm. Gonna chuck some softies around and see if I can get anything decent. Some reports of some good Jacks and even an 80cm barra there recently so I'll have a bait out on some 30lb gear as well.



The weather forecast for tomorrow looks great so we'll probably head out in the boat. Will report tomorrow.

Hello All!

A perfect winter's day here in Perth metro area!!

My query relates to the above... I don't have one and after reading various pieces of information, it appears that this is an essential ingredient to successful fishing!

I have a 24' f/glass centre cons.... What sort/size of drift anchor would be appropriate?

Many thanks in advance.

im heading down to my local tackle shop to get some lures.for the swan river......can u guys help me wit wat to buy????wat lure that big variety of fish take??? for sambos..and stuff like that....thanks

anyone intrested going to causeway tonitez???im going there for a fish for some mulloways...still hoping very hard to get my first mulla....does anyone knoes .can u fish on top of the bridge?????thanks..

Ok im really considering the argument between these two materials....

Obviously I know the pro's and con's of both, however, when it comes to flurocarbon... do they hookup more fish because the fish do not notice the line as much?

And the bigger question, if you are using monofilament leader, could more fish be deterred by it due to seeing it?

A Tale of Two Prawns


Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were swimming round in the sea, one called Justin and the other called Christian. The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that inhabited the area.
Finally one day Justin said to Christian, "I'm fed up with being a prawn; I wish I was a shark, and then I wouldn't have any worries about being eaten."
A large mysterious cod appeared and said, "Your wish is granted." Lo and behold, Justin turned into a shark. Horrified, Christian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate. Time passed (as it invariably
does) and Justin found life as a shark boring and lonely. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin didn't realize that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.
While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious cod again and he thought perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a prawn.
He approached the cod and begged to be changed back, and, lo and behold, he found himself turned back into a prawn.
With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam back to his friends and bought them all a cocktail (the punch line does not involve a prawn cocktail - it's much worse). Looking around the gathering at the reef he realized he couldn't see his old pal.
"Where's Christian?" he asked.
"He's at home, still distraught that his best friend changed sides to the enemy & became a shark," came the reply.
Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and torture, He set off to Christian's abode. As he opened the coral gate, memories came flooding back. He banged on the door and shouted: "It's me, Justin, your old friend, come out and see me again."
Christian replied, "No way man, you'll eat me. You're now a shark, the enemy, and I'll not be tricked into being your dinner."
Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed........."
