About us

vincenzo amico KARRATHA
I said why not!

Karratha and the Pilbara are home of some of the best fishing and anglers in Australia. Kids grow up surronded by fishing gear but time to teach them is not always there. A few years ago, I have created myFishingTrip.net to help anglers fishing in places they have never been before and access local knowledge. This time I felt I could use my passion and knowledge to help the little local legends of the Pilbara. I said why not!

Great experience for kids, especially if parents aren't into fishing themselves. Our kids are now more confident about having a go at fishing outside the lessons.
