Title: Exmouth Report
Post by: Luke Ryan on March 28, 2012, 01:39:52 PM

Hey all

I was up in Exmouth for the past couple of weeks fishing some game comps and we had a few days prior and after the comps to have a bit of a play around. Managed to secure some nice GT and also managed to get smoked on a number of good size fish. We did a bit of soft plastic work in the gulf for two days and hooked into some good sized brassy trevally and goldens, there was also a good amount of big trout around that were more then willing to eat the lures. We had a few hours spare on the last day and did some light jigging in 15-30mts of water and got smashed by trout and rankin which put up a good fight in the shallows. I noticed the GT to take stickbait better on this trip then poppers although I did get one fish on a D Cup. Anyway here is a few pics

Nice work Luke, some really nice fish. Water looks pretty green, didn't have any effect on the fishing by the looks of things.

A very nice selection of fish there. Some big Brassy and Golden's in amongst it. How big was that Queenie? Looks like it went close to 10 kilos?
