X'MAS COMES EARLY!
The Indian Ocean's Christmas Island has always been an intriguing sportfishing destination, with its sheer cliffs translating into massive dropoffs right off the shoreline. Known for its abundance of pelagic species, open season sees anglers from all over converge to test themselves and their tackle to the limit.

LIGHT TACKLE DOWNUNDER
Had a chance to wet a line in Western Australia with some fellow fishos not too long ago. This time we left the heavy stuff at home and concentrated on having fun with lighter gear. Its amazing the variety of species on tap and we wasted no time in getting into it...
Scored a Dorado that went straight into the esky...
Targeted the seasonal Aussie Salmon next...
They were pretty obliging once you found a school...
As usual Jackson Pintails in 27g configuration worked best...
Some were pretty hefty...
Full of acrobatics, they were stump pullers too...
the shallow reefs offshore. We tried very hard NOT
to catch the hard fighting Samson, but they found us...
They were tough on light tackle and got in the way of better fish...
But were fun nonetheless...
Shout Lighten has created quite a following in WA...
Putting a Majorcraft Alexander through its paces...
Was very hard not to hook one, or five...
IMA Ro was a star performer on the day...
