How to avoid blowies when you go fishing along Swan River, Perth WA?

Posted on 20th October 2008 by admin in places to fish

It is frustrating when blowies take your bait first before Bream or other targeted fish bite it.
Is hard body lures the only choice to use as a bait to avoid blowies?
Thank you

If i knew the answer to that i would be a very happy fisherman,i have been fishing there for years belmont/ascot/ perth,baits gone,soft plastics tails gone,hard bodies hooked up blowies,small metal lures hooked up blowies,all you can and try to do is move or just pack up and go home,i scuba dive in the swan river and the blowies bury them selves in to the sediment at night time
I can be so frustrating some days i feel like screaming!!!!!!!
They need to invent blowie repellent lol

I want to go bay fishing in Port Aransas, Texas?

Posted on 12th October 2008 by admin in fishing

Two years ago I went and paid about $35 to fish off a converted ferry boat. I think it sailed out of either Fisherman’s Wharf or Deep Sea Headquarters but now I can’t find any information about it online. Doe anyone know if it is still in operation and where I can find it?

I hope this will help http://www.portaransas-texas.com/sitepages/pid106.php?OVRAW=Port%20Aransas%20charter%20fishing&OVKEY=port%20aransas%20charter%20fishing&OVMTC=standard&OVADID=5701371021&OVKWID=60075883521 http://www.fishingportaransas.com/ There's a few to choose from. 40yr exp

Which fish finder is recommended for bay fishing?

It depends on what your Budget is….or if you even have one.

If all you want is something to tell you depth and water temperature that something like a Hummingbird PiranhaMAX 210 would be fine. MSRP is in the 80.00 range. Anything from Hummingbird is decent. They have reasonable prices.

Personally I have the Lowrance X515C DF Sonar Fishfinder. It does the trick. Not too expensive. It has a max Sonar Depth of 2500 ft.

If you want the Creme de la Creme of fish finders IMO I would go with Raymarine C80 Chartplotter, Fishfinder, and Radar. It will give you a clear picture of the bottom at speeds of up to 40 mph. And has a mx depth range of 5000 ft.
