Esca Light " HOW DOES IT WORK" Check out the Youtube Link below:



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNTk8dpF84E&NR=1&feature=endscreen


The Esca have been proven around the world and we have been asked for them before also but now after using them both with bait/patternoster rig setup and jigs we're impressed. They have a soft fade light and soft blink light so not intrusive and very stream line so perfect for bait rigs or jigs!!!!

We've used the Esca fading blue and the Esca blinking blue in the Super Deep and couldnt see a difference between the two but they work. We know a few commercial fisherman doing the Super Deep stuff with Esca and they have been using them periodically on different drop lines to test the results and they said to us they got more bigger fish and more blue-eye with the Esca attached " interesting ".

FW price $


Esca used on the Super Deep 1kg Pink Jig




Esca used on the Oceanside Custom made Super Deep rig with a double header.






We also stock the green light both soft fade light and soft blink light which is better for shallow water and dirty water.

We also have the prawn and squid soft body so you can convert the Esca into a lure or jigs etc for pinkys/mulloway/dhufish etc

If your jigging the Super-Deep ie 300-500m these 750 & 1kg are it. Made in Japan and they have a great finish
thats attracts fish and lasts for ages.

Fast drift speed & currents make jigging the Super-Deep very hard but these " rear weight " 750 & 1kg solve that problem. We have
just received another order of Super Deep jigs but we went heavier on the 1kg as they're more popular.
 

Ideal for;

Bass Groper
Hapuku
Greyband
Blue-eye Trevalla
Ruby Snapper

These Jigging Master Fallings jigs have been very popular for demersals and sizes start from 40g/65g/100g/135g. The lighter sizes have been popular for the yak & tinny fishers and the 100g/135g sweet for the offshore fisho's targetting demersals. They are very well priced and the darting action of these jigs on they way up and flutter on the drop entices bites/gets results.

Jigging Master Drag Washer Upgrade for Daiwa Electric reels.
 

Theres no doubt Super Deep fishing is becoming very popular and so is the use of electric reels. Daiwa is a popular brand and one we use ourselves out there but standard drag smoothness and longevity isnt very good. Since Ryan ugraded his Daiwa electric reel with the JM electric drag washers we wont recommend anything else. We have been upgrading our customers reels with great feedback also.
 

These washers are ultra smooth, last a longtime, work well when the washers are hot or if water is on the drag washers so basically no more sticky drag. JM Electric Drag washers suits 750 & 1000 models including Megatwins.

Life jackets

Heh guys,

Off to buy PFD at Whitworths tomorrow for when out on boat, but not sure to go manual or automatic type or which brand.

Automatic seem to make sense, except for my concern of the boat capsizing and I am trapped underneath and unable to swim out due to the automatic inflating.

Any advice ?

Cheers,

Joycey.

Where to get a TM260 & running dual transducers

After finding the short comings of my Furuno GP7000F chartplotter I'm considering investing in a HDS 7 or 9 touch with an airmar TM260 1kw transducer.

Whitworths is my normal shop of choice for everything, but they dont seem to stock the TM260 anymore. So question wise I ask;

1) Wheres the best place to get one in perth (with the lowrance plug) - I'm open to postage as a second option but would want it all installed and on water before our labour day weekend trip to Jurien

2) I'd be keen to keep the Furuno unit with the P66 transducer - Is this likely to cause any issues running at the same time as the TM260? I'd be keen to not leave extra screw holes in the hull and mount the TM260 on the port side leaving P66 on the starboard side.

3) Anyone know if out of the box the HDS 7 touch comes with the structure scan transducer?


Filleting knives

Anyone chaseing some good quality but cheaply priced filleting knives should go check out the range at MBL on Bannister road in Canning Vale they have Swibo,Dexter Russel,Fox and a range of others at half the price you would find at other stores and if you have a account with them you get a further discount.I saw a 8' Swibo advertised at another store last week for $78 and at MBL the same knife was $26 I have since bought a few extra knives for bait knives and a couple more to go in the new knife roll.

You might even come out with a soft serve machine I know my daughter was keen on me buying one but I dont know how I would explain that one to the wife


anyone looking to troll the 3 mile this weekend

went out this morning, no trolling frigging weed everywhere,24.4 temp a few birds,baitfish and tuna around, put the pick down and ended up with 6 skippy, 2 nice harliquinn fish, 2 bonito on floaters and 3 sharks all released, the crewie contributed 1 skippy, back out after the weekend I hope

Mandurah help

 I'm heading down to mandurah for the weekend and I've never been there before. I'm taking the crab nets, surf and flick rods. I have access to a tinny for crabbing/fishing the river/estuary, but looking to soak a bait on the beach at night as well. Just wondering if anyone could help me out where would be the best bet to drop the nets and what beaches are worth fishing. Any help would be great. 


Friday Funnys

Enjoy


What its all about

 

There is no better feeling than when you take out people dearest to you and they catch fish. Especially when you stumble on memorable fish. Worth all the extra lead up time and effort that at the time drives you crazy because your used to doing things quickly and efficiently with the lads but somehow way more enjoyable even though you may not have wet a line.


Saturday fishing

Hi alall what does everyone thing about fishing on Saturday night think it will be good or crap with this hot weather we are going to have??


Who cares about Australia??

Well, the Federal Liberal Party float an idea where we stop giving $800 million taxpayers money to overseas countries, and spend this money in Australia.  They reckon we could have better hospitals, education and infrastructure in the Northern cities, ie. Darwin, Cairns, Karratha!!!

Good old failure party  (Labor / Greens) dont like the idea.  Give all our money away.  Fuck the poor bastards in Qld who got flooded, we will just have another "one off" flood levy, on the Aussie workers and end up blowing it on admin costs and incompetence.

Really, who are the idiots who support this incompetent bunch of fraudulent failures???

Cant wait until September!!!  Ditch the Witch!!

Daiwa Saltist 6500h

Hi All,


Just bought a Daiwa Saltist 6500h and looking to match it up with a 8-9ft spin rod for metal slices etc from anywhere between 60g - 150gms

can anybody recommend anything? (will be used in quobba/exmouth/local metro)


Price range isnt too much of an issue, just nothing too pricey ($800 etc)


Thoughts appreciated.


Cheers

Anyone have an old fishing rod?

I just snapped my good fishing rod :( I am heading out deep sea fishing and am in need of a boat road about 7"0 that can handle 15kg's on the end of it. I will be putting a Flueger Salt reel on it.

 

Please private message me if you have anything, top dollar cannot be paid as I am broke but I can fork out a little.

 

Cheers

Murray River SA Help

Hi All,

Just after some help and info in regards to fishing the Murray between Mannum and Swan Reach (possibly further up river a little) on what gear to take/use there? What sort of fish I'm likely to encounter? And also lures/sp to use?

First time to SA hence all the questions, and will be on the river for a week solid of wakeboading/skiing but very keen to have a fish while I'm there. Currently have a pfluger trion 7ft 2-4kg rod matched to a 2500 Ci4 stradic (4lb bite motion braid) if that will suffice?

Any help or info will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers Sam.


"Simpler rules for better fishing"

Got ahold of the new fishing rules pamphlet and have a query that someone hopefully can answer.

Reading from the book:

Dhufish 1 per licensed angler max 2 per boat in West Coast Bioregion.  No probs there.

Pink Snapper 2 per licensed angler in West Coast Bioregion. No probs there.

Breaksea Cod 2 per licensed angler in West Coast Bioregion. No probs there.

Now if I take 3 licensed anglers out and we have a killer day, I take it we can take 2 dhufish and say 4 pink snapper or 4 breaksea.  All in all nobody exceeds the 2 mixed species daily bag limit. 

However what if you can take 5 people out fishing.  Does that mean 2 dhuies and 8 pinkies or 8 breaksea?  Again nobody exceeds their daily mixed species limit. I cant see any other boat limit on the amount of demersal fish you can take. Is this correct?

 


Night fishing 6 mile reef off Dunsy/ Bunkers
