Tue, 2010-11-02 19:50

LOL exactly steve. Off the top of my head guys its like 330 dollars a day but not full sure. All meals water cool drinks etc supllied all fishing gear but if you want to bring plastics lures etc do so. Tv xbox etc snorkeling surfing if ya want. Lots more too it but arrive there on the thursday the 21st have dinner on boat sleep the night leave on the 22nd fish for 4 days on the fourth day you fish your way back to geraldton and go home on the 25th in the arvo. Just basic facts there but should be one happy easter.

opinion Steve, I eat quite a few each season. And it cost me about $5 to do so.

Must admit I wish i could afford to do long charters.

Rod Holder, just make sure you stay out of casting range mateyWink

Matt, I am very fortunate

Tue, 2010-11-02 20:16

Matt, I am very fortunate that I own a decent sized boat and we are fairly adept at locating good species. 
Salmon time for me as a result is a catch and release affair, but I would not miss it for the world!! Nailed a 7.??? this season to secure the new Marmion Angling Club Record, off the beach, way out of my comfort zone!!! Love Hamelin!!

Marko pretty spot on. It's 8

Tue, 2010-11-02 20:52

Marko pretty spot on. It's 8 guys total and price is $1500 per person for the 4 days. Pretty rare we don't get 10kg of cryovacked fish to take home. Although I'm a big fan of catch and release. Soft plastics go OFF and I mainly fish close in from 5mtrs to 40m for everything. Trolling, Stickbaits,Floaters,softies,Jigging, you name it and it can be done. Just a great fishing trip on a nice boat .

Difference is that you are not towing your own boat and someone else is doing all the back ground work.  Craig is a good skipper.

Wed, 2010-11-10 17:44

just saying if anyone wants to do exmouth......I have done an Abrolhos charter before, everyone should do it....but when you have your own boat its hard to go on charters. I would rather catch 1 fish on my boat than 10 on a charter...but thats just me...
