Hi everyone, just wondering if people catch bream on lures around guilford way? Im thinking of kayaking from there towards the city direction on the holidays while breaming on the way but not sure whether to use bait or lures...

Thanks,

Lachie

 Plan was too go for a troll out too 30m and 

buzzing into too closer depths !! Then it 

changed !! So on with squid jigs and out onto 

The weed banks came across the first pod and 

smacked a couple !! Had a decent shark Mack 

busting up some gars !! Had a quick troll in close 

then plonked the anchor for some whiting !!!! 

All in all good day and Finnished off with some 

wild turkey at base camp !! So yeah just off

 Hi all

I bought a second wilson MT8144 rod but this time its the alvey version.

The reel is loose when fully clamped inside the reel mount.

I tried putting electircal tape around the reel "feet" but its still wobbles around.

Anyone know a more permanent way to fix this?

Thanks

This is a picture of a mate who went on a charter out of Fremantle on New Years Eve morning and within an hour he caught this pinky. 950mm and 12kg. It's his first snapper and first decent fish other than some chopper tailer. stoked for him and the charter who put him on his fish of a lifetime.

I cant seem to be able to load the picture?? anyway its on Jazz Charters Facebook page..

 Mate of mine, Bluey, wanted to show his son, Jeff, the ropes on how to get some abbs. Not knowing any decent spots NOR i took him down to a little secret spot i used to dive 35 years ago, yesterday for some reconinance. Weather was great and the abbs were there in abundance just off the reef.

Headed down there this morning just before 7am and BLOODY HELL.  It is no secret spot. There were hundreds of people there.

Most of the families there were of the non-swimming kind and very few of them even had masks on. I have to ask the question of how do you see if the abbs are size before plucking if you cant even see them. Most of the people were just feeling around, without a guage in hand, and plucking them off.

If you look real close you can see the people in the hundreds right up to the next headland.

While looking around the beautiful model Lily found this number plate bent in half and tossed in the ocean. Looks like there is a stolen car out there now with new plates on it. If you know anybody in the northern area with a car stolen recently then it might be worth mentioning to them. The authorities have been informed.

Managed to get a few of these Octopus traps over christmas but have had no luck in my normal huants around the weed beeds of warnbro sound.

anyone got any ideas? do i leave them out along the reef for a few nights or go back to using the tryed and tested terracotta pipe.

if anyone has had any luck with these it would be good to get a bit more info.

I have a Stradic FJ 6000 spooled with sufix 40 lb braid and was looking for any ideas for a rod to finish the combo. I was thinking maby a 15-20kg rod. Its main uses would include Plastics, jigging and bottom bouncing.thanks

 Heading out from mindarie thismorning with a mate whose towed his 8.8m outlaw cat down from Broome hopefully to catch my first ever Dhuie bit of luck needed as we have no spots between us going to head north and west see what we find . 

 nice run out mid morning today 

greeted with clean water and lots of feelers!       

my mate was happy to see the KG under the boat

highlight was looping the last one in5-6 m freediving to finish our bag

Just wanna give a thumbs up to these guys.

Was in there yesterday to buy a new reel.

Got great service.

Got talking about sounder and tranny set up and were very knowledgable and helpful, not once making me feel like I should nick off and let them get over new years haha

Will be back next week to pick up a rod

 Hi guys was just wondering any advice on removing my p66 transducer. Recently purchased a boat with one on it and sits far to high in the water can barley sound at 5 knots. The destructions say to open the lock tab then put two screw drivers either sides of a bevel. Had a quick try but not wanting to break it so I thought I'd consult the experts

Cheers Rosco. 

 Hey guys, i am after a recommendation for a rod for a Shimano Saragosa 10000. It is mainly used for bottom bouncing and is really going to be a spare / occasional use.

I have other  jigging master rods as i like the short rod and they are quite thin, but probably dont want the expense, unless i can get one reasonably priced second hand. Does anyone want to throw up some suggestions?

Cheers

The link below is to a weather site I hadn't seen before.  It contains features some of the others do not and some may find it interesting.  I have no idea of its accuracy or the sources of the information provided.  Enjoy.

 Hi Guys,

I have heard stories of small sambos being caught in the swan and I was wondering where you catch them and what technique to use (eg. Soft Plastics, baits ect,)

Cheers

 Fisheries regs use to state that fish could not be jagged from the 1st January to the 30th December. Bit of trivia.

hi everyone, in May next year I am probably heading to peppermint grove beach for a few days. I was thinking that it would be about the right time of the year for salmon as well. I was just wondering, do the schools come close enough to the beach to cast lures around there and is it a good location for salmon fishing?

thanks,

lachie 

Hi All,

Need help purchasing replacement key for my late model Johnson outbaord (electric start) - snapped the only key I had.

I have worked out that I need series 77 and key # 67, but the only person I can find online that sells replacement keys is in the US (via Ebay) and they do not deliver to Australia.

If I can't get a replacement key, I guess I will need to buy a new ignition/key set and have it installed (more expensive option).

Any suggestions???

Cheers

Shane
