Hey all

Im trying to save and back up my waypoints to a sd card from a lowrance elite 5. Has anyone had any luck in doing this, do i have to do every waypoint or can just to a complete dump on to card.  I tried it but cant open it on my computer as i dont know what program  to open the usr file with any thoughts or help would be appreciated cheers

 Hi, thinking of taking the kids down to eshed for a bit of fun over the weekend, are they still catching scalies down there.

is it also best to fish high tide or just still into dusk?

thanks

 Had the boat for 35 years, only 2 motors, but time for it to go. Going to be a project boat i believe. It has served me well with countless trips some good fish on the deck. I have a few boats I can fish with so will be out and about. Anyone needing crew during the week just pm me.

Enjoy

 Couple of decent fish on the last day of the decade topped of by a very inquisitive and fat 5 metre pointer that surprisingly wasn't the least bit interested in the young blokes 15 kg dhu 

 First post in long while. Another year done and dusted at Walpole, Weather was nice this year however we only snuck out the inlet Christmas eve for a bottom bash in the dinghy. Picked up a nice feed for the hungry mob at camp and also managed a few whiting in the inlet over the week. Mouth was as shallow as I have seen in a while but some pretty big boats where getting through some being pushed. Got smoked by a big fish ( It felt very Dhu like) before picking up a nice medium Dhu in 28 m. Beautiful place for the kids to run free 10 days non powered camping.

 Where can I buy some XD100 today? Located on Freo.

 Just wanted to recommend "Seaforce" charters out of Coral Bay. Went out yesterday in trying conditions and found the charter exceptional, ive been on many charters before and found Adam to be a great and competent skipper knowing the area and his boat inside out. Matt the deckie was awesome and worked tirelessly all day.

it was great to see the catch was looked after and well respected so well in the ice bins.

after the trip they filleted everyone's catch.

if your ever in Coral bay and want to do a charter - I can wholly recommend them.

 Will be heading to Perth then going South, would love to arrange a boat ttip for my dad and me and my wife Happy to share expenses, doing the grey nomad adventureses, Dads 80 but loves a fish will have our own gear. 

 Gonna grab some oysters for NYE. I've never schucked them so just want to get some schucked on the day. Any suggestions where to go north of the river?

Cheers

 Hi all,

Can someone point me in the right direction, of what the legal requirements are for making your own octopus shelter pots?

As the fisheries website doesn't seem to state what they are.

Cheers in advance for any info.

 With today looking like the last chance to get offshore for the rest of the christmas break I decided to head out for a bottom fish in what I thought would be pretty sloppy conditions, Surprisingly it was pretty comfortable and the fish were on the chew. Also picked up a nice haul of bluefin on boxing day

hey guys. what do you reckon about tomorrows forecast out from hillarys? got the old man over and was keen to take him out prob within the 3 mils, a bit south, but not if its too sloppy.

seeabreeze and willyweather are telling mee two different stories. if seabreeze is correct,  looks sweet. in a 5.4 ally, and the old feela has a bit of a bad back, so dont wanna take him out if its gonna bang too much.

any opinions?

 Running low on beach baits got out round

9am conditions rather sloppy?? Seabreeze 

had 10knts at lowest ? No way ! Anyway 

with the shelter of the first reef wasn't bad

target was pike ! Just 1 short of our bag 

and with only one large one too our name !

sessions out of them .. divers doin the 

damage today .. cheers pirate ..

 Nothings more fun than catching Trevally in shallow water on 6lb line

 Hey guys got a trip to the block coming up in late jan was just wondering what the phone reception is like with telstra there trying to work out if its that patchy is it worth taking a sat phone or some sort or other emergency beacon if any situation heads south whilst where there

Cheers in advance craig

 Hi there

has anyone been getting crabs in the Blackwood river in Augusta. 
 

haven't seen much activity. 
 

Enjoy Happy New Year

 Was heading out with 2 mates yesterday heading south out the back of garden island when the skipper says f... my tanks been milked. Luckily  he had 10 litres in a container. We turned around and fished a few spots without luck. Need a locking cap or similar nowadays. Very frustrating day.

Hey guys.

where is the best place in Mandurah to set up camp for me and my son to get him a nice whiting. Went today and he got his first kg and hasn't stopped asking to catch more fish :) wanna have a crack at some whiting in the poppers while I'm there and maybe even get the wife more into it. 

 headed out of mindarie today surely the swell had be more than the Willie weather predicttion of 1.8 metres? I think sea breeze even had it at 1.4 metres

 Hi guys just wondering if anyone has any experience with these Garmin echomap Sounders?? Can't find much about them so I'm wondering if it actually works as good as it looks! Fitting on a WaveRunner im setting up for placcy bashs and I like the idea of the overlay to create your own detailed maps of ground you've been over. Cheers in advance for any help or feedback

Windy showing a potential cyclone in the new year.

 Merry Christmas to all . May your day be filled with fun , frivolity and merriment! . On that note I'm off to work ... :(

This year. Heaps of small ones around and big ones. Very early. Left heaps for another day

 Just a thanks to site sponsor Southside boating and tackle.  While in the shop today getting some line on the kids fishing reels, a ( Plastic) spool cracked, now these a super cheep and not made to Last, It didn't surprise me so I grabbed another reel , no probs. After paying the shop owner gave me a nice little kids combo with a small tackle box, I said not it wasn't necessary but he insisted. Now you don't get that service on line. Cheers to the boys and thanks again. Buy local.

 Does the tail clipping of crays and there subsequent bleed out reduce the flavor?

Can't recall the crays being so bland.
