about us

A social group of dedicated fly fishers who are passionate about fly fishing in the tropical north of Australia and equally as passionate about the close camaraderie this sport brings. This passion and dedication led to the creation of the NT Flyfishers Social Mob blog site; an interactive and creative outlet where everyone can share our wonderful fly fishing adventures and link into the “after fishing” social events we enjoy in this incredible part of the world.

FROM THE WEST

A warm welcome to the 2300 the follower of this page. Thank you for your support and welcome to Western Australia's premium saltwater fly fishing page.

Kind regards, Jono Shales


Take a good look at this photo. What you're seeing here is the crap job that some fishing shops do when selling lines and reels to customers, in particular the inadequate knot to attach the fly line to the backing.
See the orange backing in Grant's hand, this was what popped when the queenfish jumped, luckily we were able to grab the fly line as it was being pulled across the flat and handline the fish and land it.
Have you ever lost a fly line to a fish or had the knot pull ?
