taloyoak Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Have any of you been to Ningaloo Reef, which is near Exmouth in Western Australia. If so, please tell what it is like?. I want to go there ( Maybe even live in Exmouth for a few months - i could work in the hospital!). Came across this website- almost became incontinent from the size of 'dem Bones!. I would appreciate some feedback. Cheers, Nan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locodave Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 There is something about those photos that don't look real for some reason, then again its probably just jealousy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moro Mou Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) Hello Nonook, There was a good write up in one of the monthly fishing mags a few months back. I can't remember if it was ***** Fishing or Fishing ***** however it may be worth seeing if you can track down a past issue. Cheers Moro Mou I have edited the above post.

taloyoak Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 There is something about those photos that don't look real for some reason, then again its probably just jealousy Dave, They are not my photos- I took them from a website that guides that area, called True Blue Bones. It IS hard to believe the size of those Bones, because they are so massive. Oh god I would give anything to hook up one of those on fly! I am seriously thinking of moving there for a few months maybe 6 months to Exmouth. Just have to convince my wife, which will mean "no". Anyway, I will continue to dream of Ningaloo every nite.

locodave Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Is that a picture of you in your avatar? Thats a nice GT!! You should take a trip there first before you make the move to live there for 6 months, just incase you don't like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest linton Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hey Nanook, Ningaloo is one of the best places in Oz. I travelled there for 3 months and lived on the beach. Not only is the fishing spectacular, but the diving, and exploring is brilliant as well. Check out the brag board and look at the GT, Red emperor, shark, tuna and the coronation trout. These were all caught at Ningaloo. If i had the chance, i would definitley go back for longer. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says the fishing is fantastic but when he last sms he said water temp only 18 degrees so sailfish run hadnt started yet...had to stick to massive reef fish the poor bastard! "Anything under a metre goes back" he lies! Top spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best fishing spots in Oz.. I am a West Ozzie and one of my school buddies works for fisheries in Exmouth - lets just say he gets into a few fish .... Can PM you with more info if you like?
