Hey guys, from just looking at my avatar you can tell i love nothing more than chillin out and wetting a line. Into all kinds of shore based angling bar fly fishing..
Was a member of a fishing club for a long time which involved going to some great places and fishing a wide variety of different ground.
Even though its not huge this is my PB shark at 24kg, its a whaler but i cant remember what type...smooth something
Will post some more pics up a bit later....

Here's the whole days catch...

It's all about the fun and relaxing time away from the city rush life

We have had some great weekends just getting away even if we didn't catch anything

cause you've forgotten the bait! DOH... sorry Mike

Fantastic great to see you guys are into it, might have to organise something in the nearish future..
Have been an obsessed angler most me life, actually its getting worse the older i get but i need me 4wd.. 90% of the places i go out of perth u need a 4wd drive to get to... AND i have some great places i go to....
Been going to tern island every sunday for the past month as the pilch are in and its the best time to fill the freezer with half decent baits and good burley..
Wetting a line this friday for some black bream, will post up some photo's of the ones we get..

Pilch, never heard them called that before. WA is part of Australia isn't it?

Nice ray by the way.
