In this episode we’re joined by Robbie Riches

Robbie is best known for being the former Owner/Operator of “Perth Fishing Safaris”, who were the only land based fishing guides operating out of the southern half of WA at the time. 

Robbie & his team successfully guided hundreds of clients onto trophy fish such as Spanish Mackerel off the rocks at Quobba Station, Monster Mulloway from the Midwest beaches, as well as being early adopters of the drone fishing craze which saw clients travel from all over the country to come fishing with PFS for a high chance at catching Snapper while still having the sand between their toes.

In this Episode Lecca & Rothy talk to Robbie about

  • Early fishing memories growing up in NSW
  • Moving from the east coast to the west coast of Australia
  • Is WEST really BEST???
  • Working at Hal Harvey’s Blue Water Tackle in Scarborough
  • The inception of Perth Fishing Safaris
  • The best time of year to target Mulloway from the beach
  • Fishing with Starlo
  • Early adoption of drone fishing
  • Perth inshore Snapper
  • Robbies new venture - “Up Your Catch” fishing courses
  • And HEAPS more!
