Went for a couple of trolls last week here in Western Australia. Thought I would post the results. I am comming from 110 degree days in Oz (hone) and will be landing in Denver in a few days. Quite a change.

what I wouldn't give to be in a short sleeve shirt, snowing to beat the band right now. Nice boat and fish.

Here is a video of us trying to catch Cray fish. We had caught 8 or so, but a wobby had got in the pot this time.

You would have to send in a SAR after me, if I road those trails. What's a Wobby, the Sea Robin of Western Australia?

I might be out there later this year. Perth to be precise. Any hints on fishing on a day off?

I generally dont go fishing around the city. To many people. Less people and larger better fish out of town.

I don't expect I'll have more than a day or two to fish when (if?) I am there and I probably won't have a car either. Can you recommend anything near or in the city?

You get mulloway in the river that flows throught the city. Tailor and other surf fish on the coast. all spots can be got to by car.

Mulloway grow to 50 odd Lbs.
