Steep Point is the most western part of the Australian main land and for land based anglers its considered to be one of the best rock fishing spots there is. When it comes to catching pelagic's off the cliffs few places can offer what Steep can.
I was lucky enough to have a few free days and a booking was available in prime time. Josh, his son Jett and myself raced up to try out luck at catching some Mackerel and managed to sneak a few in past the sharks which are ever present.

Hi really appreciate the fishing fellers but I gotta say I'm concerned about the amount of really strong braided line now being pulled around by who knows what getting caught around killing other marine animals etc, I understand it's bloody hard when they run so far but it's the consequences that the environment suffers for our sport, we need to make fishing line that eventually dissolves after being continually wet for a day or so hmmm not a bad idea. Also just to let u know my mate has a 45ft catamaran that ran over fishing braid and it tore out both shaft seals on his transmission and he was left in a really shit situation having to be towed before smashing on rocks in Western Aussie he also had a young family on board. Thanks for ur vlogs ur awesome fishos. 🎏🎣

For a 4 day trip like this from Perth it still costs me $7-800 for fuel, food, camping fees ect providing I have my car set up for it and all the camping and cooking gear needed. For fishing gear helium, bait, balloons for doing that style of fishing I still have $35 hanging off the end of each line when I put it out. For lure spinning it adds up quick also especially when $300 worth of line is lost quickly like this.

Now living in Denmark got the passion for light gear fishing.Thinking of a short trip to gnaraloo to try catch some moi\blue tredfin and oio/bone fish. These are prize fish back home but no where near to the size you caught. Mahalo brah...hanapa'a.

@DixonsFishing 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the feedback, always happy to receive criticism when it’s constructive. Certainly wasn’t my intention to loose any line at all and that would be the worst trip I’ve had for loosing line. Normally every now and then I’ll hook something to big and have a reel emptied but this was just unlucky and them breaking at the reel instead of the far end like normally happens.
