Trial project welcomed by recreational fishersWestern Australia’s peak recreational fishing body Recfishwest has welcomed the State Government’s unveiling today of the first artificial reef project in the south-west region. Recfishwest Chief Executive Officer Dr Andrew Rowland said the $2.38 million initiative to establish the State’s first artificial reef trial on the south-west coast would increase habitat for key fish species. "The Royalties for Regions program funding and $520,000 from recreational licencing revenue has enabled the artificial reefs initiative to come to fruition," Dr Rowland said. "This is a fantastic tangible benefit for recreational fishers who purchase a fishing licence. With the first artificial reefs being located near Bunbury and Quindalup boat ramps, they will be a great resource for small boats to access. "Recfishwest undertook a significant consultation process with local fishers to select the best locations." Dr Rowland said the locations selected for artificial reefs are based on a strict set of environmental parameters such as water currents, depth and bottom type. "Local fishers will be engaged in monitoring programs to determine the effectiveness of the structures and assess the benefits to the community. "If these structures meet their potential, they will benefit the environment and local communities; complement Western Australia’s robust and adaptive fisheries’ management approach; and help ensure fish stocks remain sustainable."Map with artificial reef location here http://www.fish.wa.gov.au/PublishingImages/Media%20Releases/Photos/Artificial_Reef_Site_Assessment_%20Proposed_Sites%20-.pdf Would love to see a few of these dotted along our coast line Cheers 4THA

G"day Sykes ,its just not a matter of getting handed out spots,there are Mulloway right on Adelaides doorstep in the Port river/Outer harbour area ,the onk and southern metro beaches.The key is putting in a bit of time,keeping your ear to the ground and working out tide times , time of day ect for the spots.And in regards to kingies,big jump from Tommies ,Whiting ect...top quality gear, hooks swivels,line, rods reels, a strong attitude to put in time, travel, ect is needed to catch these.Not trying to put you off at all, but put a big line out anywhere is a starting point,then after a bit of time, trial and trying different spots the results will come and once they do,you will work more and more out as you go.Cheers

Nerves are so terrible mate. Champagne doesnt come out until that little child and mum are safe and sound. We had some moments, but its all worth it.

First grand child jags. I'm treating him like a live squid at a kingfish party lol.I'm brain washing him too. Power !! Power !! Power !!

great vid jack. the little fella looked like he was having a ball.

hey all thought id just share my latest video, this was from sunday trolling up some snook and tommies on fly.. oh and.. cough.. a spin rod :)filmed on the sony action cam and my gopro.enjoy

As much as looks like the law was broken.The shark was already in the water and in the area.The "danger" was already there, he just exposed it.

great stuff guys. bugga about the mully. cant wait to hit the port for some mullies myself.

Was on the Port river yesterday morning chasing the elusive Mulloway . Got to the boat ramp to meet a good mate Jack at 4:30am . Headed out to his spot and arrived to realise my rod was not set up properly , spew . So while the fellas cast out there lines i sat there re rigging my line . Was a bit frustrating but i have learnt in the past that this usually works in my favour . Got my line in and was waiting a bit before Jack pulled his line in to check and in doing so pulled it across my line so when i went to reel in my rig was snagged on the bottom ? Busted my line trying to reel in so had to re-rig again . Jack had two lines in and said if the one goes while i was re-rigging my line then to grab it as if it was mine . Just tied the last knot and whammo the drag leaps into screaming life and i jum u and set the hooks . Unfortunately this rod and reel only had 20lb braid on it and this was definitely a decent Mulloway and after 2 min of it peeling line and toying with my it found structure and busted me off , spew ? Baited up my lineand cast out again and about 8min later my line was getting decent nibbles so i struck and with that an eagle ray leapt over 6ft into the air before taking off like a shower of shit peeling my line from my reel a a high rate of knots . Another leap or two and i started gaining line , when i got it boat side and it took of again and then we managed to get it into an undersized net . Awesome fun and thank you heaps again Jack .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLRht9GIIDw
