Quick report fellas

Day 1: The new deckie managed to raise a sail for his first fish than a 12kg Cobia pretty good for beginner's luck lol.

Day 2: A good bag of Reds and Rankins my best for the day around 8kegs and nice Coronation trout.

Day 3 : A little slower as the weather is too bloody nice lol but still managed good Reds and Rankins and the first Robbo, can't believe how pearly white the flesh is that will go well in the pan I reckon. We've been muscled by a few sharks, a bloody pain in the arse they've wrecked my shoulders but I now know my knot tying is good ;) 

Have met another FW member up here with his mate, bloody nice blokes. They are fishing land based and have nailing some big GT's and Tailor form the shore and are rapt with the place. 

Anyway off we go for another day, hard life eh :P 

 Caught this little fella on a jig in 290m on a ruby mark off exmouth. Cut its neck and a s$&t load of blood came out. When it was filleted the meat was still really red almost like tuna. 

Pretty ballsy having a crack at a 650g jig. Thought it was sumthing good but was just dragged up sideways. 

The boys called it a rusty trumpet fish..

Anyone know what spools fit on my 2010 saltiga 4000, I have been told it will take the 3500 and 4500 spool but would like to find out for sure before getting one.

cheers.

Fw crew,

Just wondering if anyone has a link to a site where you can view marine charts online?

I'm not talking about an app like navionics for a ph.

I want to search online on my laptop at home.

I picked up my boat yesterday which has two combo units but unfortunately all of the waypoints are between Wickham and Fortescue River and the other one has some spots around Denham. If anyone is interested in trading some spots I have for some Perth metro spots hit me up via pm. Happy to show proof that I only purchased the two units yesterday and didn't just make up some spots 

Fishing buddy "Garbo" and myself haven't hit the water in a while due to work commitments but Saturday was looking just too inviting!

The aim was for Snapper and the figuring was, New Moon, sunrise at 7.00am with a high tide at 9.30am along with all the solar Lunar charts saying " GET THE F#*K OUT THERE AND FISH!!!

With the new moon and being dark, we decided the snapper would be in close so we started at the 18 mtr mark at a known haunt for them, We fished until sun up, ... but, alas no sucess!

We then moved south to some ground south of Bunbury in 15 metres and from 8.30am to 9.am we bagged 3 x 90cm Snapper and released 2 huge Sambos.

We hung out for another half hour to get the last snapper to make the magic 4, but it wasn't to be.

Back home at the ramp at 10.am.

Plenty of time to fillet the fish in time to watch my belovered All Blacks kick arse!! That was never going to be in doubt!

This genius makes a habit of parking behind Hillary's Boat Shop (opposite the boat lifters entrance) in order to save a few $ parking/launching fees but stuffs it up for 6 other law abiding citizens!

 Did a very tough day on the water yesterday. I know better than work but none the less still tough. What are peoples thoughts on moon phases? It was a new moon  but a good bite time between noon & 2pm which did pull us 8 dhu's but all u/size bar a couple just over & a monster by yours truly which spat hooks half way up! A few choice words & that was pretty much it for the whole day. Went out to direction bank & in the 30's but just couldn't get them on the chew. Got both snells cut by the beloved NW blowies which was the final whistle. Very stange day with not much on the sounder. 

Would be interested on anyone else who was out.

 Just bought a boat today and parked it and trimmed the motor down in the drive but now the trim is dead. I can hear a click when I press the trim on the outboard but nothing.

Anyone know what may be wrong?

 a big THANKYOU go out to Callum24 and his mate today for laying my carpet.

great job boys, the misus is happy as pig in shit(browny points for me)

just goes to show, put it up there on fishwrecked and somebody is able to help out a fellow fisher.

well done boys!!!

cheers

Hi all,
Does anyone know a reasonably priced Marine trimmer in the Myaree, O'Connor region. All my front bow rider seats and rests need to be redone.

Thanks

took a couple of old guys[my age] out for a close in fish, got a couple of nice squid close to hillarys, went down abit inside the reef, crewie threw the anchor over, bugger I lent it to BJ so he could retrieve his s/s anchor, didn't tie it on again
, had a spare, only made out of pipe and rio bar, marine and harbours turn up but alls good, the skips came on we got out bag and left. as you get older you really slow down and are not so flexible, gee it was really on show today, still good fun and we got of the couch for awhile

Any idea

Hi guys,

Anyone done this trip before, as it looks like a great weekend out - I was thinking of doing it this year with the family, but have a Glastron 5.35m (17,5ft) runabout - what is you opinion on this boats capability for that trip?

I believe the weather can change quicly over there, and coming back in the arvo, if the wind is up, can be an issue?

I was thinking that if anytime was a good time to do it, a convoy would be best, for Safety reasons, of course?

No offence will be taken as to your opinions of the boat, as we genrally have it for social fishing in Rocko and Warnboro Sound, and fishing FFB on good days, but I have not had it out in bad weather yet.

Any idea on how much fuel this would use to Rotto and back, with a 90HP 2 stroke Mercury engine?

Boat is in good condition and engine is fine, and well maintained, so more interested in the seaworthiness of these type of boats.

Here is the link to the details, and we would leave from Rocko..

Does anyone know where I can buy a tool to punch the races out of my hubs and then knock new ones back in again? So far I’ve tried Repco, BCF, Supercheap and Martin’s Trailer Parts with no luck.

Enjoy

 Just see if the prawns have run this year or did I miss then thanks

 had to brave the terrible conditions tnite for a quick fish 

kg and the foxy fairly early and a change of spots paid off with the bronzie

who decided to tangle all all but one of the lines around the motor

 Hi Guys

after not a bad day out yesterday(bagged out but nothing special) the 3 of us decided to move more north and try again, 

thankgod we did becuause we got onto some great fish!!

all the fish on the esky are over 60cm with the dhuy at the back going 80+ and was got by yours truly, along with most of the others....lol

it was one of those days for myself(bout time)were i could do no wrong....didnt start that way with the biggest pinky going to my brother in law and myself dropping a heavy, quality fish...my knot broke at the dropper loop...i was pissed to say the least.

but it all came good for me in the end and good fish were coming over the side consistantly...happy chappy.

even time for a couple of action shots because we were doing so well and i was a little chuffed with myself.

great day on the water with some good mates, tunes,coldys and some good fishing....what more can you want???

 alright so perfect out on the water today so few of us decided on a little squid comp . myself and pat on trusty old joeleen vs a couple mates on brianna who only recently hot the water for the first time in 2 years

so it started of with a little drag race from ocean reef to burns rocks and brianna just won due to her brand spanking 130 evinrude but the win was short lived

we both started a drift infront of burns rpcks and atraight away pat lands a nice squid... then went quiet for half hour or so then bam myaelf and pat are on with one each leaving the score at joeleen 3 brianna 0

next minute we hear the boys on brianna yelling and they landed an absolute horse (25-30cm tube) which we gave em twp points fpr

pat then decided we would throw some twistys for some herring to give the guys a chance and was stunned by the resilts... our lures barely had 2 seconds in the water before being smashed, all up got 10 in 10 minutes and decided that was enough to snack on later .

then we all decided to hit pinnaroo point and there were another 2 squid for joeleen and one more for brianna on the forst drift but pnce again died of so we called it quits

all up and awesome arvo on the water!!

 Hey Guys,
Working up at Karratha and after having very little luck shore fishing on our RDOs we are going to hire a boat this sunday and head out and hope for the best. Any tips/direction on where we should be heading? We've only got small 15lb spin outfits so nothing crazy, thinking trevally, queenies and maybe tuna? 
Certainly not after GPS coords but any advice on general area would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
 

 As the subject saids?

Dont know many sites for finding these kind of parts i require...

though i have found an AUS site selling the FCV-295 for $3590 AUD..... which is i think is pretty good

Anyone know of sites for transducers as well? and would love help pointing me in the right direction for trannies too, was thinking either a 2KW or 3KW 38hz and a 2KW 200hz if i choose the 295...

brett

 hi guys, i was just wondering if there are any dams, lakes, streams ect that hold redfin or silver perch ect in perth metro. i know that most of them are over an hour drive south but are there any here in perth, park lakes? thanks

 He guys just wondering where i can catch some scalies atm

 Hi everyone, I'm a new fisherman and after chasing bream for awhile I want to go after some bigger fish like Snapper or Mulloway but I don't have a clue as to what sort of setup I need, So I was wondering what weight rating and size rod I would need and what sort of reels I should look at for this. Cheers

 Went for a fish today on some usual ground in geo bay, plenty biting didnt take long to bag out on demersals, thought we would try some ground that fished pretty good around chrissy time and produced mulloway. Got these two beautys on jig, first couple of drifts an another 2 bout 15-18lb on bait. 2 big ones were 32 and 35lb, very happy to get them both on artificials

Hey guys weather is looking good on Friday looking to head out for a plastics fish. All my usual mates/deckies are working.

If anyone is keen to come out for a run let me know. Fishing west side chasing coral trout and Rankin. Can troll up a Mackie if you want one. Will not have bait on the boat. Fishing out of the Galeforce.

Pm me if interested.

Cheers
