Using a freshwater prawn caught in the shallow with a net by 5 yr old. We didn't expect to pull anything out of the water as we didn't have much with us just the telescopic rod and I honestly thought the hook was too big to pull anything up.

Its not bream is it, is this what they call a grunter? The spines on his back looked a bit nasty, was reluctant to let 5 yr old take the hook out of him. We put him back because he was small, but there were quite a few schooling...also silver flashes in the water which I thought might be bream but not sure.

We were down at kent st weir. 

not sure if the photo is going to upload but will try anyway.

On Sunday I was fishing about 25km from Bunbury and caught a very strange fish.  I do not have a photo of this fish but will try to describe it so someone can tell me what it might be!

 It was about 40cm long (I jagged it through its side) orange in colour with "wings" that were blue on the edges, green in the middle and each "wing" had a big black dot on it.  It also had 4 "feelers" on both undersides of its body, which I can only describe as looking a bit like crayfish legs.

Any ideas?

Would you say this is a Small Toothed Flounder or a large Toothed Flounder ?

Hey I'm about to begin fishing in W.A waters mostly off of Quinns Rocks beaches up to Two Rocks.    My rod is awaiting me under tha xmas tree.    I have no idea about identifying different species of fish and I am looking for a user friendly W.A species book so that I can tell what is what and more importantly what I can eat.     I am going to head out boxing day morning hopefully aiming for Whiting to start with.    Any info will be much appreciated.

Catch ya on tha flip side

Peace

got tthis thing on a lure while camping at the family farm in a small creek got about 60 all on the same lure haha

Hi guys,

Anyone know what these two fish are? Any size limit / bag limit / boat limit for them?

Thanks!

Caught 3 in 3 drops whilst shallow water jigging Exmouth.

Photos aren't too good - not 100% sure what it was.

Any ideas?

Found these schooled up off the burrup today. Only couple of noahs cruising with them unfortunately.

So what are they? and more importantly what are they good bait for? 

.

this was hooked a few weeks ago at exmouth. there is still a lot of debate on what this fish is, some say shark others think it a GT, whats your thoughts?

Hey guys just wondering if anyone can help me id this fish.

I cort it off the beach at karratha last october and originally thort it was some kind of catfish but thinkin back it had no whiskers?? ne help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Brett

 Awesome colours. Caught off Onslow in 16m 

The mouth makes me think some kind of morwong? The fins are wrong for a blue morwong.

can someone please id this fish

Not very good pics i know... Any ideas though?

Thanks

.

These were caught at the Derwent in 190m. Very red flesh. Any ideas anyone?

Fishing near carnac on the weekend I caught a fish which after a bit of research (found the pics on:http://school.maths.uwa.edu.au/homepages/adrian/scuba/rotto.html) I think was a scalyfin. I chucked the fish back, although for next time, i'm wondering if you can you eat them?

Hey all,

This was caught by my girlfriends dad last weekend off a boat in Geographe Bay, Busselton.

I reckon it's a barracuda, he reckons it's a snook.

Can anyone settle this argument?

Cheers,

Daniel

wot type of shark?

.

Nephew caught this today !!! I have no idea what it is !!! But would guess SOMEONE would

.

ID please.

Fish was caught offshore Exmouth 2006 and 2007

We have been offered "football trout" but doesnt match photos we have been shown of football trout!

Going back to Exy in April so would really like to know what these are!

Unfortunately I do not have a Pic, but whilst fishing for bream from a kayak around Belmont/Ascot area I hooked up quite a few small fish ranging from 10 - 23cm, look like a trumpeter?

Distinguish markings: Two black spots on tail fin, looks like five finger marks along back, motley brown colour with faint brownie strips around nose, white belly. They love prawn but not squid strips.

The next day I saw them cruising up and down the river with the bream in the shallows. I can not find them in any ID correspondence.

Thanks Schecky and the others that replied.

Maybee some of you can help me with theese?

As you may have guesed i am new to fishing in WA and have a fair bit to learn.
