Exmouth WA

Recommended Posts

Had the pleasure of spending my birthday over in WA fishing Exmouth.

TArgets were GT's and sails but also caught goldens, mackerel, snappers, queenies, little trout and rankin cod, missed out on the blue marlin but kept entertained with sizable dollies out near the riggs in 500m of water.

Switch baiting for sails was a highlight with a new PB for me.

Good sized mackerel loved a sticky casted in the same areas.

We also had an opportunity to go see the turtles coming on the beaches doing the egg laying thing. Poor pic but didnt want to disturb them...

Driving is dangerous!

Got T boned by a kangaroo! this is the smudge mark where he kissed the side window were I was sitting. Lucky the window wasn't down!

You also have to watch out for the emu's walking down the streets!

Awsome Greg :thumbup:

Got to love catching sails Used to chase them off 1770 and Cape Capricorn

One time we were heading out to Masthead island stopped to empty some water out of the fuel filter and a school of baitfish came up under the boat with a sail circling around us all litup something I wont forget :yahoo:

Hope you were using light gear for the sails

Greg you should go back to work and concentrate on other things :074:

I think I will stop your posting rights as you are killing me with all those great fishing shots.

Nice PB Sail as well.

P.S did you bring a new boat back with you or what !!

Cheers Stewy

Hehe :biggrin2:

My bestest year fishing...... So far :thumbup: and a great way to end it.

Even got a few jews this morning out on the parra to 80 odd cm but nothing worthy of posting here....

Iceman them sails lit up were awesome, chasing the birds and reading their body language was something I learnt more about this trip. Cool watching the bait balls get smashed by hungry fish. The charter had great gear using Millerods game spins with Saltiga 6500 loaded with 40lb braid. On a double hook up at one stage I had over half a spool out, some 350+m with the sail going nuts across the surface, very cool sh1t! I wish I had my snapper Jew rod/Branzino tho.....

Steve the sails were in 18-20m of water and only a 20min run from the ramp, plenty of 4.5m tinnies out there getting into them on the nice days.

Stewy that Contender is the charter boat we had, the rest of the guys fishing are all contenders owners to, little owners club trip away. Felt like fishing at home but somewhere else. Weird but very cool. Still nothing done on a new boat front as yet..... My never ending story continues:mad3: but just gives me more time to save up for the next one!

Here are the gun lures over that way.

ASWB lures, hand made n painted in WA.

Outfished my Nomads, carpenters, fishermans and orians, all over double to quadruple the price of an ASWB!

They were that good I searched them down the day I got back, here is my first shipment.

Best stick swim bait I have found so far, so easy to work!
