    good result honsu
    that bit of headland in the background of the second photo..... if you go over that (beyond the lighthouse) there is another couple of good platforms there to fish off. I know of a few guys getting stuck into sambos from there..... next time you visit my backyard we'll have to go for a fish together

    oooh.....sambos from the rocks......that would be a first for me......I brought my GT gear as well......would have put that to good use.
    Maybe next time I'll check it out again......love that area tho......U can fish the beach and the rocks all a within 1km stretch.


    PS... Albany is 4.5hrs drive from Perth, wait til U go north to Exmouth, now thats fishing heaven....only 14hrs drive away

    very true. I wish I could get there more often.... infact I've only been there once and didnt even get to wet a line

    If luck swings my way I may even be working off the coast of exmouth on the oil rig by June AU$100,000 a year, 3 weeks on 3weeks off. Thats what I call a good job!

    actually another opportunity has just swung my way. Its not on the oil rigs but on land (kind of) earning the same money. It's a trade assistant job working on berthed cargo ships and barges. This could be happening in 4 weeks time and still working between Exmouth and Port Hedland coasts.
