Black CC Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I just got back from an amazing trip to the Rowley Shoals, 315km West of Broome. After spending 18 hours steaming out there in the 80 foot charter boat, we had very high expectations and I am pleased to say they were met and then some. We ended up catching 12 Sailfish, about 8 Dog Tooth Tuna, 5 Wahoo, 4 Spanish Mackerel and too many Coral Trout, Long Nose Emperor and Maori Wrasse to count. Each of the 8 of us brought back a full broccoli box full of fillets and we all felt incredibly fortunate to tick off a trip that has been on our bucket list for about 20 years. The pictures below are all pretty self explanatory except the large structure, which is the weather station at Imperieuse Reef. The channel snorkeling, where you are dropped at one end of the channel and drift a for 10 minutes to the other end of the channel and see the amazing aquarium of fish and sharks, is quite incredible as well. Not a cheap trip but arguably the best fishing in Australia. 24 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Now that is fishing, sounds like an excellent time had by all. Not an area that would be fished by many fishos at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob, Every time I go to the freezer and pull out another pack of fish from the Rowley Shoals I can't wipe the smile from my face. One of the guys caught 10 new species for him personally on the trip.
