The way the foreigners have over fished all of our local fishing spots and catch well over legal limits theres pretty much no good local fishing haunts left unless you go off-shore.

Best bet is THE little river fishing farm. Like shooting fish in a barrel :happy:.

I really hate greedy FU*kers....... that spoil t it for others. When my son is old enough I would like to take him fishing as well.

But with the on onslaught of people from the east and foreigners over fishing theres going to be buckleys of that happening.

END Rant......

The reason for me saying foreigners and easties is because a friend of mine is a fisheries officer and deals with these people constantly at the coal face.

As said above, Perth is really over fished, so its not that great anywhere :whistling:

If you really want to travel, there is a little town north of perth called Dongara. They have some pretty good beach fishing... dawn and dusk are the best times, but during the day is ok too.

Around perth, maybe go to south beach in freo. There are often a school of whiting around or even better a few herring. Have also caught a few flat head there too :P

are you serious the highway goes straight over the cut

k then you go take the highway thru the forum lights heading south go over the "new" bridge thru falcon then take the last left before the dawesville bridge follow that to the end and there you are

apparently the best bait is prawns and berley doesnt seem to matter to much what time of day can get crowded tho and your fishing off rocks the jetties are always full

dont blame me if you dont catch anything tho im not really a fishin person mind you a nice sundy arvo with a rod a beer and a mates always fun

Depends on a lot of things. If you have good balance, good foot ware, the rocks aren't wet and slimy and there is no swell to knock you off. Rocks are pretty safe. If too many of the mentioned factors come into play, it becomes less safe. Generally ts fine as long as you use your head and don't stand in stupid positions waiting to get washed off :yes:

Well you could try rottnest island. Thou i'm just a occasional fisherman. I caught about 14 herrings in 2 hours. Well it could the same ones biting cause i thew a few back in, but i can't remember which period that was in. I think somewhere just before winter.

When i went to kalbarri, i caught a few fishes, but i don't know wtf are they and if they're nice to eat, so i threw all of them back, more or less like sport fishing. Thou i did have some yummy crabs.

... mandurah? rottnest? broome?

he's not going for 2 foot taylor... he's going fishing with his son. mandurah is good but if u dont wanna drive an hour (if u live north of the river) theres a long groyn in (i think its called) quinns rocks - just turn left on the roundabout at the intersection before bunnings and follow that road around for about a km or 2 then turn left after the round bends and follow that for about another 2km till the end, u cant miss the groyn, its massive. you can catch plenty of herring/skippy and i caught a couple of good taylor. i always go to the end of the groyn but if u cant be bothered walking, anywhere is good

that would be Mindarie you talking about, not quinns :D and yeh tis alright for finishing, right at the end in the middle is pretty good no matter what time of day, although ATM its pretty fu**ed cos they are doing developing the area and theres fences and construction site buildings up at the entrance :)

when i go finishing i usually get bored if i havnt had a bite in about 4-5 mins and crack the sh*ts, that when i realised fishing isnt for me :P

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
