Hi all , just wondering if there is a way / site etc to predict the current in May ? Got caught out in Cervanties last year and it was horrible 

Thanks for any help

 Just curious as to thoughts on releasing big Mulloway. A 16kg model was caught up our way last night and kept but I was of the thinking it's better to let them go?  Not sure of the story of the condition at time of capture regarding a healthy release. Are they any good to eat at this size? 

 Had a ball in Ningloo at the start of the month, Caught some good fish but as always with this area when the wind blows it blows hard which shut it down for 5 days. All our good fish were caught on lures, all undersized fish on bait, very weird. Caught alot of queenies and trevelly off the beach right in front of camp

also made a little movie to capture out trip

If anyone has boat moored out from mangles bay may want to check it. 2/3 nights in a row scum have been stealing stuff. I believe they have been caught last night .

 Finally got my pb  126cm 16.8 kg....,lost a bigger model too the reef.... i want too get this fish taxidermy can anyone point me in the right direction and roughly how much something like this would cost??? 

Has any on used a Simrad HS60 or HS70 GPS?

If so do they really take out the swell and waves from the bottom soundings or am I wasting my $$

Cheers

 Hi all - heading out from monkey Mia to the channels. Not sure whether to anchor (and burley?) or drift?

Planning to be out around high tide. Anyone have a recommendation either way?

Cheers.

 What does everybody do on those hard days when it seems like nothing is working to try and get Snapper to bite?

In this video I was struggling to buy a bite from a Snapper!

 Was that your dad I have just seen on ABC news restoring the catalina fly boat Adam? Must have been, he had a Fishwrecked shirt on! Well done to him I say, would love for you to put pics up Adam?

Hey Gents,

Up in Jurien bay for a few days with the kids and boat.. wondering if anyone can point me in the  direction of some squid in the bay for the kids? do they get a few? Will be mostly heading out wide.. but the kids love a squid.

Thanks in advance

I just saw this in the Supercheap Auto catalogue. Has anyone used a wheel lock on boat trailer?

 Gents,

8 months new to Perth and fairly new to the forum - so my thanks in advance.

Planning on heading to the Abrolhos this weekend for a two night, three day, family trip (wife and two kids). I've done a bit of research but still have some gaps - Can the experts help me with some queries?

1) Boat ramp in Geraldton to launch from - my research says the Batavia marina looks ok - is it safe to leave a car and trailer there for this time?? If not, what have others done??

2) Motel in Geraldton (boat friendly) - any suggestions for a Boat Friendly motel in Geraldtion to keep the boss happy before we sail the high seas? About 9 m long on the trailer and 10 ft high.

3) Weather forecasting - i've been watching Seabreeze, Windy and Meteye - which one best portrays the weather on the islands?

3b) Thinking of heading over Thursday afternoon with the ESE 12-14 knot winds. From what i can see it still says 2.3m seas. Will this be an easy following sea or does it stand up with a S'ly or SW'ly swell?

4) Any suggestions for a family trip? A bloke from work said he was swimming with the seals at Morley anchorage a couple of weeks ago. Any other 'family friendly' suggestions?

If anybody else is going to be over there this weekend - i'll be sitting on VHF 16 - "Lady Bird" - Dark Blue hull - Formula 233, twin Suzi's.

 Has anyone been getting any Mackerel over the school holidays or Easter?

All right . Took the tub out for a fang today and picked up some mighty fine Shark Bay Blue swimmers. Downside was my radio ( GME , I know , I know.... ) had plenty of power to it yet no sound coming out of it at all . Climbing up and checking the cable for the aerial I noticed the plastic coating has disintegrated from the cable itself. What’s the best way to check if the cable or the unit is munted ? . Thanks in advance  

Got knocked off early by the boss !! Apparently

Holy Thursday !! Benefits of working at catholic

primary school .. took my offsider for a go for

some Good Friday calamari.. not in numbers yet

 Still a lot of swell around, managed  a few skips, 1 undersize pinky and a good sized  flounder which was a suprise.

Enjoy

So a 10 day break looms for most of W.A. I thought it’d be a good thread if folks could put up where they are, general catches, water temps, vis reports, yadda yadda.

I’m personally heading to Kalbarri, so it’d be good to see whether to chuck in the spear gear, or just troll for mackies when and where I can. 

Hopefully after fridays shit weather front, it gets warm enough the beach fishos get an eyeful of bikini splitarse, or dunsborough milfs  

happy easter muthafwers!

Hello All,

I have been going to Shark Bay, WA for a while now and have never managed to catch a coral trout. Could anyone please Give me info to lead me into the right direction. I dont mind either Denham side or even monkey mia. My boat is big enough to get to most locations so some details would be very appreciated:) 

Had a mate pull out so have a deckie spot for Exmouth between 27/4 - 4/5. Come out for a day or for a few. 

wetaher dependent but prob fish the Westside with trips out to the island etc. bonus if you don’t mind a spear either.. 

6.5m boat 

hit me up if you keen to head out on the boat. 

Usual fuel, ice, bait chip in. 

 Hi crew, 

I was thinking of taking the kids down to the beach or rock wall for some herring to cook on Good Friday. Anyone know where is reliable at the moment?

Havent been in ages and would love a nice feed of hezzas!

Thanks in advance!

 Good day gents

Anyone had any luck with BFT and if so where ? size? had a few caught last week but all small and together with a lot of scabbies.

Thanks all

 I've been to Tamala and surrounds before and i know crew get squid in and around Denham but i've never considered or seen anyone target squid down the bottom area of Tamala Station. 

Anyone know if it's worth taking the jigs?

Cheers Team.

Any FW'ers heading up the Denham in the next couple of weeks ?

We are arriving Denham on Anzac day for a 3 week stint.

Red 6.7 metre Coraline centre cabin, come say hello if you us around.

 Any good kingie spots inside stragglers 

Hey Guys, I'll be in Exy on the 14th May for 4 weeks. Not my normal fishing trip as we are taking our 4 month old girl. Was wondering if anyone else is up there around the same time. I'm taking the boat so might have spots for deckies or will be looking to get out with other people if possible.

Anyway let me kmow if your up there, I'm staying at the caravan park on the right when driving into town.
