First Post, from Western Australia, My Fishing Spot.

G'day from WA. (Western Australia)
We don't get Strippers here but we do get a lot of other stuff.
Heres a couple of pictures of where we fish.

We do fish off the top of here!!

And John is really fishing!

He's tied to the SVU.

This is a Narrowbanded Spanish Mackeral caught from the rocks, its only about 6 metres up from here.

This is a favourite spot for fish to get you to sit as they try and make there way out to sea.

This is a Samson fish, so called because of its fighting prowess.


I'll post some more if the replies request such!

I think I get it. Once you get the fish close, do you run that thing down the fishing line that is hooked on the spanish mack's head and pull it up with the heavy duty rope? Thats pretty cool...

Hey Stax welcome aboard. If you keep posting pics like that mate all the fishermen in New England that have a passport will be booking vacations and coming to visit. Of course there are only three people on this list that have passports, so it might not be to many after all.

Nice pictures, Mr. Marsupial. Feel free to contribute more any time. Quite a landscape you have there.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

Jesus, just don't lean to far over the edge. I think I'd save the beers for when we cook the fish!

Great stuff, keep it comming!
