 Anyone no if thecrabs are worth giving a go in the river yet 

Does any body have an idea of when two rocks jetty is getting maintenance done.

Had a first the other night when a mates 11 year old son (Ryan)caught one of the tagged pink snapper just outside cockburn sound.basically the fish had grown roughly 65mm in the 3 years since it was initially tagged, giving it an overall length of around 790mm.it was initially tagged inside the sound by a fisheries tagger. But who knows where it has been in between those times.

The snapper was dispatched and upon filleting a circle hook was found inside its gut cavity which i found interesting.Ryan also got a pb of 850mm that night before the sharks moved in.

The carcass is now in the hands of fisheries for their research..

 whats everyone thoughts on the new halco lures skimsticks watched a few you tube clips and they look pretty good, just wonderin if any ones herd much about them  

hey all took my grandson and his mates fishing to a land based snapper spot i know (no matter what time of year of condtions we always get a heap but i try not to overfish it) as they were sick of catching sharks. Sorry about the pictures the boys were too busy to be able to give me the individual shots to post up ! i will get individual pictures off their phones later when they come home from getting bait at woodies.

We took 18 snapper altogether (fair few boys came)  but these are just pictures of mine,my son and my wifes and lost 14 snapper to sharks as well and also got a gummy, some skippy and some tailor. This is metro if anyone is interested but i wont give out a specific location as it has taken me years to find a spot with no people and a reliable catch ! it was not north mole haha. The boys ran out of bait and were not happy with what we had at the time snapper wise so we filleted a snapper for bait (yes it contributed towards our bag limit) and it worked better than any bait ive ever seen before.  Ill try an find the rest of the pictures but for now i hope you all enjoy!

I have been wanting to get out for a fish and would like some spots that are producing fish i having been out so i would like some help

I prefer if there are any spots that are producig some bigger fish like  morth mole, rous head producing any pink snapper any jettys or groynes.

and any spots that are producing some fish not any secret spots just general area

Really appreciate any help

Guys,

Just preparing myself for a GT popping expedition, being a complete noob in this area i have a question to ask.

when jigging and fishing in perth i use the Daiwa fishing belt http://daiwafishing.com.au/fighting-belt/

i like it because it i can keep it on all day and it doesnt bother me.

would this suffice for GT popping? or would those plate fighting belt similar to the JM ones be better off? I have asked a few ppl with mixed responses.

i just dont want to be caught out wishing i had one.

been watching alot of youtube videos and i notice alot of guys have the back support as well...out of 10 would you recommend getting one?

Enjoy

has any one ever used one of these reels im looking at buying one second hand and what abit of feed back thanks for any help

Hello all.  I was wondering if anyone could help me out.  I am moving to dampier for work and will be living there.  I am towing my 7m noble boat with me and the road trip starts this saturday the 12th of October.  My father is taking two weeks off work to help me tow my boat over and to spend some time with me in dampier and I was hoping that there would be someone who would like to share a couple of off shore fishing spots at all.  My dad is a keen fisherman and it would make his holiday if he could catch something to brag about when he flies back home to QLD.  I know I am only new to this website but if anyone could help me out and point me in the right direction that would be awesome as I would love to see my father get that fish of a lifetime while over in dampier. Thanks everyone and I look forward to hearing from you.

 I just got an email from recfishwest, and they have successfully lobbied for the rec cray season to start a month early, which means it starts next week!!!

nice work recfishwest!!

Has anybody got experience in making a brine to keep per-rigged Gardies and Mullet fresh while trolling all day? What is the best way to do this? I have read about using blueing liquid to make the bait look better. Anybody tried this and does it work?

 hey boys planing my first trip up to exmouth over the xmas break, I no its stinking hot and windy 

Is there any charters that run during that time of year and if there is any recommendations we will be up there for 8 days or would it be easier to take my 5 meter ali center consol up any help or info would be muchly appreciated :)

Heading to Jurien tonight to fish with Whitey tomorrow, just wondering how the land-based fishing is at the moment? Are there still squid to be found off the jetty? Are the beaches clean, or filled with weed?

Heh guys,

Anyone planning to head out on weekend before the ban?

Winds look good for Sunday but pretty big swell as well.....

 After fishing all these years, I have never used teasers before...

simple question.... How far back behind boat should they be set at?

i usually have a lure just at back of whitewash, and another further back, but no idea where I really should set a teaser!

 Anyone know of any good charters that will actually catch something worth keeping or anyone who willing to run a private fishing trip willing to pay $$$ for a trip worth going on 

Cheers

got a couple of pics from a mate who "flies" the ROV's in the deeeeeep water. depths can generally be seen in photos and are in metres. he sees some seriously funky stuff down there, the below are just a couple that i have ripped off his facebook page. i have no idea what some of them are, although the purple chicken is my favourite. he has some pretty cool videos as well...

i am taken the misses and kids camping for week down south at the end of the month but with the weather like it is thinking north mite be a better option so does anyone have any ideas? basic facilitys dunny / cold showers either on the beach or very close to it wanting to do alot of fishing campfire and dog friendly i know i am asking alot but can anyone help idealy sharks tailor mullaway of a nite.

I promised my neighbours kids that I'll take them fishing. They decided to fish the river for bream and maybe catch some blowies (hopefully its not the latter). 

I've tried Bayswater and Salter Point a few weeks back and got nothing.

Anyone had any luck recently? If you don't mind sharing where abouts as where to start it would be great.

 hi, i might be getting the new shimano saragosa sw 20000 or 25000. Would it be good for sharks over 2 meters and live baiting, 80kg to 100kg tuna and samson fish jigging. thanks

The newly formed Assassin Landbased Fishin Club held their inaugural fishing competition at Hill River on Saturday 5/10/2013. Fishing conditions were tough with lots of weed and smaller fish around, standout fish for the night was a Sandbar Shark of 65.88 kg for Shaun Visser and overall winner of the night. The 2nd and 3rd spots were taken by Alan Davies and Sherbert with Tailor and Flathead weighed in.
Thanks to everybody who fished on the night, tight lines and see you at the next competition

G'day guys,

Are the cranka crabs available in stores yet? I have not yet seen them around. Any info would be good as I am really keen to get one in front of a bream or two.

Getting pumped for an upcoming trip to wagoe over the christmas break, being pretty amatuer at beach fishing i was wondering what type and size sinkers people use up there? Have heard that I can expect to lose a lot of tackle, have seen on gumtree a few different people do bulk sinkers for cheap, thinking this might be a good option; anyone done this before or know of better options?

cheers for any info
