Good Charter Outfit Dunsborough, Margaret River Areas

  Hi All

I am new to fishwrecked site and travelling down to Dunsborough for the Xmas holidays and would appreciate some feedback on

 a good charter operator for off shore one day fishing charter.

Also a good scuba dive outfit and some suggested dive sites.

  Thanks Ripples

Have you dived the swan? Either cape dive or the dive shed.

Sorry - no tips on the fishing charters.

 Give Naturaliste charters a ring. They are mainly doing whale watching charters at the moment but I'm sure they will do a few fishing charters over the xmas holidays.

There is another guy that does charters but he is a rip off and a tosser.

Target Species

Hi Lamby

I am heading over from the east coast of Qld near Burleigh Heads, I live ten minutes in from the Burleigh heads at a place called Mudgeeraba.

The NSW border is only 15 min away.

The fishing down the NSW coast and up north around the barrier reef is good but the catches I see on this forum in WA look like the place has no were near the fishing pressure we have on the east coast.

The dhuies you mention look like a pearl perch we have over here only yours are on steriods.

 Blue marlin are around at this time of the year and the small blacks should not be far away.

The spottie mackeral have started on our local reefs in the last few weeks and the spanish won"t be far away.

Thanks for the reply

By The Lord baby Jeesus you are a touchy little sod Doakes,

 

Bloke steams over to say hello, and accidentally puts a green lip over your bow whilst screaming obscenities,

 

And you act all precious.

 

You've changed man.
