hey everyone

heading up to quins tonight

just wondering if anyone knew what the weed was like up there

cheers Alex

hey all going away next month up north

and was wondering have many people ever sent the gear to say the destination, charter bloke like a week or days before you actual fly there.

i remember when i went to Exmouth Last year leaving from South Aus via Qantas that i had heaps of gear to take ie lures hooks etc,

and i could only chose either to bring my standard luggage or to chose the rod tube and  nominate that as my main luggage and just bring on carry on luggage.

if i chose to bring my main luggage and rod tube it would cost me a extra $30 each flight all upp $120 for a rod tube load of crap.

so i decided to fit as much stuff as i could in my very wide rod tube with 3 rods and nominate the tube as my main luggage.

but it was hard to fit it all as it is illegal to bring on your carry hand luggae hooks lures etc any sharp objects even braid on the reel was not aloud which is fair enough no dramas .

so i was thinking about just sending my lures hooks etc in my lure bag and sending them to exmouth broome etc say a week before direct to the charter bloke

which leaves me with alot more room to come over with. But is good idea or is it safe ?

whats peoples thoughts on this dilemma has any one done it before

Cheers

anyone else going for a snapper bash tonight? im gunna try citybeach groyne

Out on the river today I saw about 50 boats doing like a huge lap from like the city to applecross to point walter or something and they are all travelling reasonably quick. Is there some sort of race or convoy happening? Where I was standing there was a large boat sitting around one of the corners as if a referee to check that no one is cutting corners which leads me to believe there is a race. Most of the boats were large fibreglass cruisers (30ft+)

Has anyone got any idea how this last storm will affect the squid in cockburn sound,planing to go out monday

thanks to all who comment

 hey lads,,,just wondering if anyone has fished club cap over the last couple of days?? was gunna head up tonight,,,last time i made the trip it was unfishable n wasnt worth the drive,,

cheers guys..ben

Like most of us, I watch the weather all week to see if there is a slim chance that the wind gods will give us fishos a break on the weekend so we can participate in our passion; FISHING. Now seabreeze is probably one of the most used sites to determine if we head down to the tackle shop after work on the Friday to stock up on bait and gear and then dissapoint our partners by telling them we'll be heading out yet again for a fish instead of sitting home and spending it with them. So there is a lot riding on what seabreeze is telling us but most of all, our safety is at stake!

So how many times have you gotten all your gear ready, got your mates all up at the crack of dawn and headed out when seabreeze has looked like this and driven into gale force conditions thinking to yourself, here we go again - F#%k you seabreeze? 

The following two images are from BOM and Willyweather. All three images are for this weekend. So who has gotten it wrong? 

Now for me, I only have a very small tinny (not plate), and I will go out way past the FADS if the weather reports show it's going to be nice, so I'm putting a lot of faith in what I see on sites like seabreeze.

I think it's about time seabreeze fronts up and explains itself. They're not only messing with our safety, but they're messing with our free time which lets face it, we don't get much of these days.

BOM doesn't usually get it wrong but have been messing up a bit lately. I got smashed last Friday when their reports said it was all roses, I hope they haven't caught whatever bug seabreeze has.

Anyway thanks for putting up with my little winge, I hope everyone has a great day out fishing this weekend and let us know if the weather today was as per seabreezes predictions or as BOM and Willyweather predicted it. I think I'll try Sunday instead.

Hi guys,
 

Has anyone launched their boat at grey lately??

Can be impossible to beach lauch up there sometimes with heaps of weed on the beach. Just dont want to drive all that way only to no be able to launch.

not sure if this weeks storms may have pushed the weed up on the beach.

Cheers

I was out in Cockburn Sound last Saturday morning, with two kayak fishing mates before the sun rose. All three of us had 360 deg lights etc, and head torches as required by law.

A lot of boats were headed out from the Woodman Point boat ramp, but they all steered clear of us at a respectful distance.

One boat appeared from behind though, from the direction of Carnac Island, and proceeded to head straight towards me in the pre dawn gloom. I thought he was going to hit me, so pedalled like crazy, flashed my headlamp at them and prepared to dive overboard. Way too close he veered offcourse and the boat passed, 10 metres away, with all on board jeering and hollering. It was quite obvious that they saw me from some distance away and just decided to scare me. No different to a driver driving up onto a footpath, aiming at a pedestrian then swerving at the last moment for a joke.  It scared the crap out of me and I thought I was going to die.  If the skipper happens to be reading this, please stop acting like this, it is not funny to the guy who thinks he is about to die, and next time we will remember to write down the rego of your boat and report you to the police.

Thank you for letting me post this on fishwrecked.  I know the vast majority of boaties are respectful people and would be disgusted at this sort of behaviour.

Hey People,

Just saying hi. I've been lurking on this site for a while but never posted before.

I usually fish the local beaches NOR but make trips down to Cockburn and into the swan for something different every now and then. There is a chance I've probably meet a few of you and if I haven't already I drive a red double cab hilux, so feel free to say hi.

Cheers, Brad

PS Must make mention of the Guys down at Oceanside. Great guys and have been encouraging me to actually create an account here for a while.

Hey everyone just wondering if anyone has been to Port Smith Lagoon recently and could tell me how things are there I lived there for 2 and a half years and am thinking of planning a trip there ( a part of me missis it ).

Cheers

OI slurp, get keen for a fish this saturday morning out at C&#T point

 Hey guys just looking to replace my certate 3500 and want to get a Stella but not to sure on what size to go, want to spool it with 20lb and will be using it for beach fishing and demersal jigging, there is nothing wrong with the certate and I want to keep to a reel around the same size jus want to try something new and unsure what way to go about it.

Hey guys just chasing some advice on a new 8ft spin combo, I want it for my second rod when beach fishing for tailor, I have a heap of 6ft spin combos, just chasing something a little bit longer matched up with about a 4000 size spinning reel,targeting tarwhine, skippy,whiting etc. not to concerned about the price range, any advice would be appreciated cheers.

No matter how hard I try I have been unable to get to the beach to check the weed situation before dark.  I'm going to go for a fish tonight and was wondering has anybody had a look after the storms and knows what the sea weed situation is like there?

Thanks for any help

Hey everyone just a quick question in regards to Mangrove Jack and Red Bass I have a feeling i know the answer but would like it confirmed are they the same with just different names or are they two different species?

Cheers

Ash

anyone know where i can get one, have seen on one site, but not to sure about it

thanks.

i have a couple of daiwa saltist 40H reels that i want to put power knobs on both of them.

does anyone know where i can get these knobs from that are suited to the saltist reels and how do i go about fitting them, as it looks to have a weird looking screw in there with no top on it to screw it out..

thanks

Jess

Thought someone else might get a laugh out of this

We have some good storm surf and have had for a week.  What's that going to do to the beaches such as Boranup and Hamelin and Deepdene?   Do I need to wait for it to settle out?
