Pilbara Light fishing

Thought would post a few pictures from Dampier. All close in due to lack of 406 but have one now. Thank God and at least now should be able to get further from Dampier so Gillian does not wake the whole town when she gets a big fish. I might also like to know anyone on here that might help with my left ear hearing problem, but is it not wonderfull to hear the screams of joy, pain and frustration that makes this hobby/sport so wonderfull.

 

Nice Chinaman but the better half stoked this one

Almost pulled her in and the power of these fish is awesome for a southern fisho

 

The bigger one. Gillian would not hold it. Chicken!

 Earlier one whilst still light trolled around a little and was amazed to find my Triho favourite, wrapped in seaweed absolutely smashed by a Mackie. Gone lure, weed and fish! S*#t. But you have to love the Trihos in shallow.  

This acrobat Queenie jumped straight over the boat after a battle with a reefy. Queenie won, reefy had (and I hope still has) a nasty headache from collision with a Trailcraft hull. Had to take it picture off the little athlete and then he swam away. Plenty on the day with jigs and twisties (Gold).

 

Fun 46cm Jack on bream gear. 4kg Sic stic, Penn Affinity and 4kg Fireline and 15lb Flouro leader. Trying to catch live bait and this was about the most fun I have had in years. And did it taste good! Another picture to follow.


Now Gillian with the biggest Longus Thomas I have ever seen. Makes great bait for crabs and muddies so kept.

 

All in all some fun time and now at least we can head for deeper water.
