Bobj Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 i love fishing ! have fished for about 20yrs im 24 now . i fish for carp barbel and pike here in the uk but hopeing to sample some australian fishing in april :em0100: G'day mate, good to see you adding to the thread. Crap are reviled by the vast majority of Australian fishos. Thankfully, they are only in the SE of the country... introduced noxious fish - Google Search I'm pretty sure that there is the odd barbel in SE Australia, but definitely no pike. There are a few tench, but squillions of redfin perch. Try and fish for the yellowbelly, the saratoga, murray cod, and the mighty barramundi when you come here and I'm sure you will be pleasantly surprised at the freshwater fish that Australia has to offer.

Guest ouseun Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I hoping to get out to emerald or dysart soon in the new year as i see Rockhampton is the closest area to the coast what the fish like out there and do you need a skippers ticket to go out to sea there cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobj Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 How remiss of me to forget the pelagics!! Mackerel and queenies, long-tail tuna and golden trevally...Mind blowing action in season!

Bobj Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 After 1 month of constant rain, finally got a session fishing off the rocks... Nice and warm to start off...5 AM and 26 C. Managed a photo of the dawn for BritChickx. Talk about spider's webs!!! musta walked through 50 of 'em...Well, it is a National Park that I fish from. Got out there and the sea is still quite dirty (rivers and creeks still flowing muddy water...and the odd dead tree!) Being the 'no moon' period, I hadn't got my hopes up...but managed 4 of these ock-ocks, grunters, or javelin-fish. Not big, but better than nuffin'.:wink: Cheers, Bobj.

Bobj Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Had another session off the rocks yesterday; only 2 bites for this, a fingermark, aka golden snapper: and one of these, a spotty mackerel Cheers, Bobj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bobby Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Do you catch enough fish to eat well off them Bobj? I love fish but it is so expensive to buy In Brizze, have to get my rods out again and try a bit harder next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love fish but it is so expensive to buy In Brizze, have to get my rods out again and try a bit harder next time. G'day mate, most of the fish I catch are released, but occasionally, as yesterday, I take some. If the macks are biting, I might take 3, 1 for Jo and me, and 2 to give to some oldies in town. Those 2 in the last post fed 4 of us and 1 fillet still to eat. BTW, the fingermark and the mack attack are in the top 5 (in my book) for fighting and eating qualities. Cheers, Bobj.
