Jigging Master combo specials!

Hi Guys we are offering awesome special pricing on some top end gear. These prices are a once off and only on instore stock until it runs  out or until the end of the sale. There are limited colours available for the reels so first in best dressed. This Sale will run from the 6th of March until the 17th of March and no extensions will be given. If you need Braid for these outfits we can look after you on that too.

 

 

 

First up we have:

Jigging Master Powerspell PE3 matched with the JM Evolution Titanium 150 OH (Gold) A light overhead combo suited to light bottom bouncing and an awesome Demersal jigging outfit for the overhead lovers. This combo we are doing for $

Next is the Jigging Master Powerspell PE3 matched with the JM Evolution 200 OH (Red). This outfit is perfect for general bottom bouncing and as a medium demersal or light Samsonfish jigging outfit. We have sold plenty of these particular outfits over the past couple of years because it is so universal! This outfit we are doing for $

The Jigging Master Powerspell PE3 can also be matched with the Jigging Master Three Kings Special UL OH. Similiar to the Evolution Titanium's but feature a slightly quicker taper and Black cosmetics with a gold trim. This rod paired with the JM Powerspell PE3 reel is now $

 

Now something for the Samson fish jigging enthusiasts or the heavy bottom bouncer. The following outfits are more than capable of tussling the local shallow water and deep water sambo's or if you want to jig for small to medium Dogtooth tuna. Big Dhuies and the likes will be no match for this gear too.

 

The Powerspell PE5N or the PE6 paired up with the Jigging Master Evolution Titanium 300 OH is now $

The Powerspell PE6 paired up with the Jigging Master Evolution Titanium 350 OH is now $

Or for something really nice then the PE6 matched with the Jigging Master Three Kings Special Light OH it is now $

 

For the fellas and ladies that want something that is nothing short of a stump puller yet wont hurt you (too much) than the following outfits will pull BIG Bass Grouper, Harpuku, Blue Eye Trevalla and Greyband Cod in the deep water or XOS Dogtooth Tuna from overseas.

The Jigging Master Powerspell PE8 boasts 80lb of drag pressure at MAX and when paired to either the JM Evolution Titanium 400 OH or the Three Kings Special medium you have a weapon on your hands. These outfits we can do for $

Then you have the Powerspell PE10. This reel is large and has a crazy drag capacity of 100lb's at max. This reel has plenty of spool capacity for those that want a manual outfit for the Super deep. Pair them with the JM Evolution Titanium 400 OH or the Three Kings Special medium and your set to go. We will do these combo's at $

jindalee

does anyone know any good fishing spots in jindalee in the northern suburs of perth


Deep Drop/Trolling Deckie available

 Hi All,

Keen to get out this weekend for deep stuff or trolling for...  anything really! Water temp is very promising at the moment. 

Got all my gear for any sort of fishing, and do all the usual, skipper, clean, fillet ... etc. Prefer NoR, but also don't mind SoR. 

Let me know if you got a spot available.


Light Baitcaster custom build

I'm pretty happy with this one. I tried an underbind below the pattern and it came up pretty good for a first attempt. Fuji Alconites with some Mudhole bling. I particularly like the grips and Texalium split grip.


eachfishing help

 hey guys. heading up to seabird on the weekend and am planning to soak a couple of big baits after dark. just wondering if anyone has any advice on the area and what we may catch? and what the best baits might be? hopefully the weather holds out. 


fish id

 hey guys caught this at steep point while fishing for snapper any ideas?

Decent Overhead Combo?

Hey guys

Looking at getting a trolling/bottom bouncing combo. Something decent at both as I don't go out often enough to get one for each.

I like the look of the Tyrnos and the price seems reasonable. Combo around $400 is where I would put my budget at.

Not sure in which size too, I guess the smaller the better because of the weight but wouldn't have a clue. 

Would be used metro to try for macks, tuna, Dhus etc

If not the Tyrnos any other recommendations would be great.

 

Cheers

My first ever mackie!!!

 Got my first Mack this weekend up near leeman on spear. Never been so excited to pull a trigger on a fish or just to see one cruising by as I was sitting 10m down looking around. Didn't fight that hard as I got a good head shot on it and had it to the surface and in my hands in a few minutes.

Exmouth and full moon

Hi all,

I am planning a trip to Exmouth during the 2 weeks of April school holidays.  As I have only 1 week to spare, I can go on week 1 or 2.  The full moon coincides with the latter half of the first week and I would like some feedback from fishos as to your exploits around the full moon.  Will be doing the normal Exmouth stuff of trolling for pelagics, bottom fishing in the 100's and evening fishing in the shallows.

Any feedback would be awesome.

Thanks in advance

Chris


Filleting at sea

I'm thinking less work , mess and time when we get home . So I suppose the go would be to put the fish on ice to firm it up for a while ,  min 30cm length fillet with skin and scales intact . Then give it a wash in the sea water and put into a largish ziplock bag and expel all air ... Put it on top of ice bag ready to go straight into fridge / freezer when you get home.. Any of you blokes fillet on the boat ? ... The regulations seem clear enough , but could I get confirmation that I'm reading it right and that it includes filleting dhu and snapper etc ... Cheers in advance


18kg Samson south side rotto, 60m

This is my mates 18kg Samson fish from Sunday, he caught in 60m of water south of rottonest, took half an hour to get it boatside. Was released succesfully.


dunsborough help

Hi guys

I live in Busso and feel like a bit of a fishing location change.

Thinking of launching at Quindalup but have no idea where to go.Only launched there a couple of times but stayed in close just for squid and whiting.

Just wondering on a general direction to head and would I start looking in similar depths as Busso for Dhuies and kgs?

Have had a quick search and the 30m mark sounds like the go.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers Choc.


just caught this at woodmans point - what is it?

 thought it was a garfish but now not so sure??

anyone know what it is? is it edible?

cheers

whats the best age to get kids into fishing??

hey guys,

 fairly new to the site and just had a few quieries about when we should get our kids into fishing.

im fresh into parenthood and was absolutely stoked when we found out we had a little boy on the way.

we went away for a long weekend fishing/surfing trip and decided to take the little fella who at the time was 6months old. gave him a rod and reel and first hook up a a meesly trumpeter but the little man found it hillarious..

3 months down the track he cant keep his hands off my fishing gear. decided to spool my salina 2 16000 while mums at home and im at work just for shits and giggles, but evry time i move them and hide my gear he finds it all and just cant keep his hands off.

cut a long story short is 6 months to early?

he is absoluetly mesmorised by fishing rods and reels and will drop his toys anyday to get hold of the gear i leave lying around.

 


Fishing tips please

Heh guys,

Need some tips of possible.

Had a boat for over 6 months and fished the 30-40m mark out from Cockburn Sound several times, but as yet not managed to catch anything of note !

Fishing paternoster with occie and also tried jigging, but no joy.

Sounded around but not found much to get excited about

Struggling a bit so would value any advice

Also when I jigged the line was at an angle due to the affect of the drift, making it difficult, is there anyway to avoid this problem.

Cheers!


kids' fishing tips wanted

Hi All,

Am taking the kids fishing in the morning, with a mate from Mosman Park...  likely options are:

i) Mosman park Jetty (down past bowling club way)

ii) Near stirling highway bridge (their in laws live there so thought may be nice but tbh I have no idea if any fish).

iii) E-Shed

iv) any other suggestions for some river based fun?

Cheers all!

Matt

first mulloway

 hey guys

well after nearly 3 years of trying I finally landed my first mulla even though for once i was wasnt targeting one

It was caught in the middle of the day on a small piece of squid and measured 62 cms

was caught on a size 2 hook meant for whiting and skippy so the hook bent a fair bit but lucky we could pull it in, in time

the fish swam off strongly which was good to see

hopefully the next one isnt such a long wait 

cheers alex
