Water temp site"BlueLink"
Submitted by ROCKPOM on Sun, 2007-08-12 20:26Has any one seen this CSIRO site that shows surface temps and currents
for Perth and Exmouth its updates every day?
The ocean currents work the same way as barometric pressures in the
atmosphere with highs and lows caused by eddies.

Dampier fish saturday 11/8
Submitted by jay_burgess on Fri, 2007-08-10 17:32Been outta town for work over the past week so haven't had a chance to check the site for a while. It's amazing all the new content that gets posted in such a short amount of time!
Planning on heading out with a mate tomorrow from Dampier. Plan at this stage is the fish a group a big barges near the south side of Enderby island. The barges are a fish magnet for big GT's, Cobia, Queenies and other fish.
6.30 is the estimated time of departure, can't wait. Will post a report tomorrow.

onslow in October?
Submitted by Simon C on Fri, 2007-08-10 09:51A quick ?? for the lads from up north - apart from getting pretty hot what are the conditions around onslow generally like in early october. The old man wants to come across after he saw the photos of our trip to Thev in May and chase some GT's and sailies. I know that the wind is getting up a bit by then but is it terrible conditions or just a bit of chop with some calm bits in between the blows - any help would be good.

Leaders , flurocarbon
Submitted by Maverick on Wed, 2007-08-08 08:35OK here is a question for the brim boys and girls , if flurocarbon is clear and fish are unable to see it why do you go down to say 4 pound fluro if the fish are finicky / shy surely if fish can't see it what does it matter if you use 4 , 6 ,8 10 or 20 lb leader .
I can't see what the diff 4 pound would have over say 10 pound if flurocarbon is what they all say it is ?????
CHEERS , MAV.
