Just a couple of days ago my missus showed me a pic of a couple of blokes with a pair of nice sized mulloway from there.
They both looked good size
It’s the one species I’ve always just marvelled at and haven’t started to do some work on. But now after having a couple sessions I’m really determined to nail it. And when I can use the boat again, I’ll be doing long hours down the Mosquito Channel in WP. Watching Wingas Mulloway videos gets me G’d up to try... lol
Anyway don’t be discouraged if you go a bunch of times and catch nothing. I had to go many many times to get my first one.
Felt like giving up many times along the way mate
Yeah I know a Jew takes a long time for sure, I’m use to being patient and detained now after the long sessions to get the first gummy. I’m sure it’ll be longer than that though. But when it does happen all the long nights will be worth it.

Actually have a mate who’s brother owns the Yaringa and Mornington hire boats, so could be a possibility that way tbh.. we’ll see. Just good getting out there regardless.

Bloody hell that’d be annoying as... she isn’t wrong about the stink part but... you gotta sneak out somehow.
Thanks mate.

I have had funny experiences with mulloway a in the past.
I remember a session where me and my mate went to catch fresh squid for bait. Got the squid and went to our spot.
Set up our fresh squid baits and just for something else I throw out another rod with just frozen half pillie on it. And guess what? The one with the frozen pillie buckles and starts taking line and results in a mulloway while the fresh squid didn’t get touched!!! :rofl:
