know any good places to fish?
gotta take the other half fishing tonight and need a nice easy to get to place where she wont get dirty or anything lol
somewhere close to the water also so not like stokes hill, atm the only places i can think of are the cullen bay jetty and fishermans wharf

Nightcliff Fish and Chips - save the work just buy the finished product - no getting dirty then

Either of the channel island bridges, nice and peaceful.

EDIT: Whats the point in going fishing if you dont wanna get dirty??? Whinging bloody women

Dirt is bad Joe - sheesh I have told you that loads of times - was never converted either

i caught a mackeral off nightcliff jetty. i was using bait and getting dirty, then spat the dummy and put a rubber lure on. second cast i got it.

Just don't go down the stairs that's how come I now sport a couple of inch long scar

i don't think it was just the stairs fault. seen plenny people go up and down them.

i only had to go halfway down. there were two blokes down there fishing and they grabbed it for me. even gutted it for me!!!.

I catch lots of puffer fish at the 2nd bridge, good for a drunken game of footy when nothings biting

i caught a 15cm cod lol
smallest cod i have ever caught, impressed the mrs tho

Where'd you go??

haha second that

fishermans wharf

im looking to get into fishing more often and going on trips with people and their boats, some land fishing and everything really.
i want my own rod/reel that will do most of these things. im thinking a bait caster.
something i can troll with, flick, fish in the sea or a creek. obviously you cant get a rod that will do absolutely everything but i wanna do as much as i can.

so keen fisherman let me know what will best do my needs. what size line to use, size rod, type of reel etc. kmart has some sweet fishing gear for occasional fishers and nice cheap prices so ill get something from there more then likely.

I wouldnt eat anything caught from fishermans.

I got my bait caster from "top end fishing supplies" now" top end tackle world", paid $160 i believe. The blokes there are very helpful with line and tackle selection, because they "do it all the time".

Also, if your looking for rods, surprizingly enough Cash converters have a fairly decent range of quality rods and reels, i would buy there before getting Kmart crap.

For blue water and harbour fishing on boats etc, i'd just stick with the handlines, sounders find the fish for you.

For a decent rod reel package, line and small tackle selection shouldnt cost you any more than a couple hundred bucks.

Or Iron ore wharf.

Next time your down there look at the hut at the end of the jetty. There is a pipe that comes from there. That pipe comes directly from the huts toilet.

I alsways see people fishing from the rocks under it

I use a Bantum 'Curado' reel with a Abu Garcia 'Morrum' rod. Best baitcaster combo out, hardy and will never shit itself. My uncle is a fishing guide and uses these, clients will drop them before the break! Avail from K-mart I believe, don't be discouraged by the seemingly generic selection.

As far as fishing spots are concerned, take a walk around Lee point or andwhere else with a few structures present. Or for a good afternoon trip go for a drive down Arhnem Hwy and throw some soft plastics into creek crossings.. you'd be surprised what you might find!

Hell yes this is a great way to find all sorts of things...

Watch out for the swap dogs tho

i caught a 30cm barra in one of those creek crossings a few years back

^^^ Which, of course being a good boy, you released?

sure did. wiggled the hook till it came out, then prodded it off the bridge with my shoe. no way was i touching a fish. shoulda thought about that before i cast.

nothing wrong with your fingers smelling like fish....

there is if your trying to pick your nose!!!

got some sweet fishing gear, 130 bucks worth for 85

Nice. Where you go.

I love BCF could spend hours in there.

check your prices first though. dolphin torch $19 there. $9 at mitre 10.

yeah not the cheapest place but I'm like a fat kid in a candy store there

Yeah pretty pricey down there. K-mart FTW
