I heard a rumour Rockpom
Someone told me the other day that the Dhuies were schooling up in 32m of water north west of Mindarie over flat featureless sandy bottom apparently chasing the sand eels at this time of the year. Just have to look for the schools on the sounder and spend at least 5 hours soaking a bait until they fire up. Might be something you can target during the NOR comp. Just need 1/0 whiting hooks or bait chaser rigs to do the damage (wink wink nudge nudge) (tee hee hee).
Hey NOR boys, that'll keep em busy while we try and get a few fish on the usual spots.
What's that?
Damn I didn't think they would scroll down this far. My deception has been revealed, doh, doh and double doh.

Happy to play decoy guys.
Gully has a great chance to take out top honours with a good haul in the North section, though Ryan & Rob will have a say in it I'm sure. That man Ryan has more spots than a 15 year old computer nerd.
GPS spots that is! (hehehe) He's the one you want to chase out wide not me.

me!
Dont chase me out either, you'll be travelling more than fishing in that case hehe!
With Andy (local Mindarie bottom fisho that always produces), Gully ( dark horse) and Deepwater (pro crayfisherman) hell, I'll have plenty of excuses why they won.....make me feel better atleast but a good day for sure!
Ps Rob doesn't fish North ie Mindarie/Tworocks so can I trade hehehe just joking mate :)
