Exmouth Catches
Pictured: A Dolphin fish getting measured, caught in GAMEX. Tissue samples were taken for future research.
Brett Wolf, of True Blue Bonefish, put his client, Dean Rutherford, onto an impressive cobia, which needed to be landed on the gulf flats on Wednesday. Golden trevally around the 6kg mark and queenfish have also been caught in the gulf waters. Along the eastern gulf, barramundi are occasionally being caught. More queenfish and small trevally have been caught by shore-based fishers along the west coast. The boats trolling along the back of the west coast reef continue to pick up Spanish and shark mackerel. Small black marlin and sailfish are being encountered off the west side.
Fishing in GAMEX has been slower than the last tournament, however still above average with 164 hooked and 73 billfish tagged in the first four days. Plenty of dolphin fish, narrow-barred spanish mackerel, golden trevally and queenfish are being weighed in, being encountered by crews fishing inside Exmouth Gulf and around the Muiron Islands.
Recfishwest is attending the tournament along with world leading gamefish researcher Dr. Julian Pepperell, conducting important research on sport fish. For more information on this project click here.
