WA fishing rec. licens

Bought today a tinny for my WA fishing trip! A 3 meter alminium tinny with a 8 horsepower!

Me and my mate heading next month From Cairns down to Perth on a crazy road trip! It is gonna be 2 months off hardcore fishing!  We're driving a piece of the savanah highway to Normanton and down to Mount Isa and Katherine, Darwin 2 the West coast. 

So the boat is registerd and i'm gonna do a skipper/boat licens but what else do I need to organise to make the trip sweet  as possible?!?????!

I heard you need a rec fishing licens on the west coast; How and where can I get this one?

What kind of safetey gear do I need to take on the boat?

For cast netting I need a licens I can get from the Post office , correct?

Anything else what could be inportant?

And ofcourse where are the hotspots to stop from Cairns all the way up to Darwin; from barra fishing to game fishing preferd out of a tinny 

 

So any tip to make our trip SWEET as possible, is Welcome!

 

cheers!

Maybe you didn't work it out?

Click "I agree" center bottom, then "New License" from the RHS and then you see all the prices ... or you can even buy it online.
