Gday to one and all. :D
Weve not long moved over here to Bunbury from QLD (dont hold that against me tho :P) Our family loves fishing we're getting withdrawal symtoms atm...done a little beach/rock fishing too keep the kids amused. Caught some toad fish...seaweed oh and a stick :)
Really looking forward to doing a few charters and catching a "Dhu fish" or 2...looks like a pearl perch on steroids to me...im game.
Its great to see websites like this full of people ready to help with information and and advice im happy to be here :D
See you out on the big blue hopefully.
Attached is a pic of the sort of fish im used to catching...oh thats not me by the way but a good mate :D

Welcome aboard Sunny
How big was the stick? My pb is 43cm, they fight hard on an Alvey (hehehe)
Nah... you will love it down there and the fishing will improve as you explore and pick up a few tips from the locals.
Do a search on Bunbury and you will probably find a few helpful hints for the area.
Look forward to seeing a few more pics (that red is a cracker).
Cheers

The stick was a 15-24 kg Live
The stick was a 15-24 kg Live Fibre...with a live slimy mackeral as bait...did the trick just nicely.
We already love it here thanks Andy...theres so much for us to explore and discover...the weather is fantastic to be honest...you guys dont have the humidity that we do over on the east coast...so this is heaven :D
Love the magazine by the way...TOP SHELF.
