Fantastic to see
Fillet Fish Australia is full of top info.
Great effort by those who participated. But shame on those so-called fishermen who left all the rubbish in the first place.
That's awesome. Please post more videos od longer lengths cheers
What are the co ordinates for king reef
all on there bud
I'll put that in my proposal, cheers, I'll follow the link in your description.... oh it's not there.. I assume it's this www.dbca.wa.gov.au/management/plans/proposed-south-coast-marine-park I'll be voting for more marine sustainability for my children, so they can fish in the future.
The last comment is dead right .. the government doesnt care about our future or our kids future. Bringing up kids to teach them to fish is flaming expensive at the moment. So many unrealistic rules to comply by , the amount of fishing rods you can have to the amount of hooks your allowed. Leave alone the licences you need. What is wrong with a great day fishing from the beach or boat and not worrying about how much its going cost.
Doesn’t make any difference at all the only way to make this government listen to the experts and people , is by voting them out .
"Santos proudly supporting Australian communities", then why don't they pay taxes?
So Santos is funding the artificial reefs as their way of giving back after they destroy the real reef? What a joke.
A tonne of good practical advice in one short and to the point video. Thank you very much. Looking forward to more.
Great tips - thanks!!
Been fishing those islands my whole life, all my family the same for 5 generations basically grew up there gonna be heartbroken when it goes because there really seems like nothing we can do
BHP and Santos have done more to ruin fishing (and the environment) and yet they are your official sponsors.
We spent a whole week along the Esperance coast from Town to Duke. In the 7 days we were there we saw 1 other fisherman fishing along the whole coast due to weather conditions. The only places possible were protected by land as the easterly blew all week. On TV the other week the minister of fisheries was questioned about a species of fish in a picture, She was unable to name the let alone give reasons why it was being banned and did not even know it came in three different colours. It was noted at the hearing the minister of fisheries was banning fish she could not even name. As the over fishing of beaches in the Esperance region it is some what a mystery as 3 out of the 6 days there was not a person fishing of the beach
Its crazy to think that people that have no idea about our coastline, or how any ACTUAL days a year we can get out to fish, are making decisions like this
ALP-GRNs vote garnering for March 2025 election, NOTHING else!
The state government seem to be pushing to stop fishing in the state as a mitigation strategy for building a big new port south of Perth, and the proposed wind farms all over Geographe Bay.
These left wingers of Western Australia are rapidly becoming a dictorial state. We, the voters, have no say. Those who were elected to govern this state are not governing for the people. The minister for fisheries is actually a fish out of water himself. Bloody disgraceful mate.
Loved the video mate. As an angler who is new to WA and looking at going to target salmon I thank you a lot. High informing video
We should have stopped this development earlier. It didn't get enough traction in the media. This is an environmental disaster.
That question could be offensive to a stranger.
What is the size of the hook?
You are genius ❤
This Government hasn't consulted with anybody Forestry, Fishing, Charter Boats, Firearms and 4WD etc. They sit in offices in Perth with shiny bums never bothering to talk to anybody and make these decisions. How many livelihoods have they ruined. They won't even talk to the peak bodies who are comprised of experts in their fields like Recfishwest and WAFCA. With Firearms Papalia has said get another hobby. How out of touch are these people - yes they control the Parliament but they are still answerable to the public. It has been well proven the health benefits of fishing. I dont know about you guys even if I wasn't catching anything the body experience calming down with rod in hand (maybe a tinnie) was so soothing and refreshing. Nature at its best.
Those who make these decisions don't appear to differentiate between the types of recreational fishing. Beach fishing is often a complete release for built up stress and other potential mental health issues. Beach fishing generally has low catch volumes and would have minimal impact on the general fish population. Appropriate targeted management is good for all.
IMO has more to do with banning all access to places where you can gain a feed as a time is coming one will have a forced to gain for a feed if you comply. rangers will patrol from SA to NT if you are not a part of them people "access denied"
Sorry Mitchell, but that's exactly how this Government drafts policy by sitting in their office and making critical decisions without consultation with concerned parties.
Looks like a good idea Let the sharks catch their own I’ve got a shark shield for spear fishing same principal I’ve had a speared fish near my shark shield The interested shark didn’t like it veering away when close
Well said, the impact of recreational fishing on stocks is pretty minimal given typical south coast conditions
Then you ask why sharks attack people, because of all the fish being taken out of their mouths.
A Sea-Creature called a 'Cockburn Sound Anemone' (A.K.A. "Striped Sound Anemone") was found on the beach up in 'Broome'...apparently this Sea-Creature is rare around WA...so...was this creature named after this Perth area?
So we get 2 week's back? Doesn't seem like much considering what reco's have had to give up
great work team
Don't wash it 😮😅
good idea but i hope its free for the disabled
Is it still legal to have 4 hooks on a gang?
Check your state. In WA you’re only allowed 3 and can’t use a treble to trail.
@@Sachiel- cheers
Oh how I miss those 6m tides…….
Looks like they’re dead before going in the pot
Excellent tips thank you
Interesting to hear how British pronounce it "Fill it", French say "Feel It", while Americans say "Fillay"
You are a Legend Katlyn.
And you trust the government?
Thanks for all the great work you do for the rec fishing community Sam.
Denmark needs a refurbished poddy shot jetty
