Cracking days fellas, make it look too easy

Definitely been tough fishing for beakies off Sydney, frustrating when you see all the reports of down south absolutely firing too. Still some good water pushing down, may be a short but good run of inshore blacks soon.

Bonito when treated with respect and prepared better makes better sashimi then Kingfish IMO

Pick me pick me? If I wasn’t working a sneaky solitary island mission would be prime...

A day on the water beats any day at work though!!!

Beats any day at work that’s for sure, can’t believe how good those conditions were out there. Haha should have stayed in Sydney the good bite was all down this way, think you have me hooked on the reds for good now though

Yep both Terrigal and Broken Bay fads has had constant water of 20-22 degrees, green and lifeless. I saw a few micro dollies taken from Terrigal during the week so will only be a matter of time. Another southerly blow tomorrow might mean it turns on Sunday hopefully

Good stuff mate, great part of the world

Cracker day gents!!! Only a matter of time before the game fish turn on I reckon!!!

Fish the eddies off to the sides mate out of the flowing water would be my best advice, the Jewys will ambush the fish in here as the bait is flushed past with the current. Least you had a crack, the lizards have definitely slowed I have found recently

After a few tentative inboxes the day arrived when I made the trip up to chase Reds with Jeff (Scratchie) in his home turf. Forecast had been a bit iffy all week with rain and wind thrown in the mix but was confident early it would be manageable. First drift we came up to a rock wall holding bait and as soon as Jeff called it he hooked a small red on the plastic. I think I managed a rock cod and that was it for a few more drifts, bait was every where but couldn’t tempt any more. Moved spots, and the first drift I came up tight on the plastic in the top half of the water column to a better sized red. Managed to get it in the boat and it went 55, so straight in the well. I think Jeff landed another pannie on the same drift. Whilst this was happening Jeff had a live slimey drifting out the back, that got smoked. Cleared the rods, and by the time we could do anything it had bricked him in the reef, had all the tell tale signs of a hoodlum. Jeff showed me another spot where we both pulled a few more pannies, I think we ended the day with seven in the well. Although I didn’t crack a big one it was a great day on the water, if you ever get the opportunity to fish with Jeff he is a guru, his knowledge he passed on to me today will no doubt be put to good use. Sou east blew up and it made it a slow bumpy trip back in across the bay, but regardless it was definately worh the trip up. All fish were caught on a variety of zman plastics fished on 1/4 jigheads.

Keep with it mate, persistence and perseverance and you will crack the code soon enough. If your catching fresh bait your fishing the right areas.

That’s a cracking doggie on 30lb well done

Spoilt for choice up your way mate hah. Love my sessions chasing the humble Dusky 😉 🤔

Flattys are definately on, we managed 17 to 70cms yesterday afternoon and a hour and a half session
