This one was 41cm and went nuts. Top fun ??.

Z man grub I think the tide and time of day was the key though . Put up a good fight on light gear too ?

Pulled another 40cm model out of the Georges late yesterday afternoon.

Caught on a 3B Fat Dog this afternoon. It went 40cm.

Awesome Where is the river?

Beleive it or not Regan he caught it on a plastic he found. A rather long paddle tail, probably 150mm with a huge hook out of the top of it. The boys went down to the river to catch bream and eps, but Clay lost the only leader and jig heads/sps he took soon after landing a couple of fish. On the way home he tied the paddle tail direct to the 6lb braid. Big cast into the center of the river, one hop and bang. It spooled half his reel and then went with and aginst the tide for approximately 20min before he landed it. A couple of pics later and back into the river to live another day. Papa, just for the record, the whiting was mine 100%. The jew however, that's one I can't claim. He was down there again this afternoon, flicking until the sun went down. It definiteley won't be the last. Tight lines eveyone and thanks for the comments. Its memories like yesterday that'll be why my kids and I will keep fishing and they're kids and so on....

My young bloke pulled this beautiful specimen out of the Georges this afternoon on 6lb braid. It went 84cm. Congratulations Clay!

The person holding the fish, isn't the guy who caught it. That's my son. I caught the fish late in the day. Poor guy, doesn't catch many, so I let him hold my catch while I take the photo. He then posts it on facebook and the like and tells everyone it his. Oh well, I guess that's what fathers are for. I feel sorry for him, he's not a natural like his old man.

Not too bad in winter. I always try and say gday to them anyway. Let them know about the fin I saw only a couple of minutes ago, just where they came from.

Thanks guys. Weve been lucky with some decent sized bream and EPs as well.

Thanks guy

Been fushing the Georges River throughout winter. Have had sucess flicking sps with bream and EPs. Caught this whiting last Sunday. 42.5 cm. Would upload other photos if I could figure out how. Still afyer that elusive Jew though?

Looking foward to tge detailed report Blairy. I've convinced the missus it's our next must do. Cheers, Nathan.

All at low tide?

That's the island in the middle ?

Planningto go out this weekend and try for a jew late Saturday. Will be fishing Chipping Norton Lakes. Any info re productive spots would be appreciated. Cheers, Nathan.

Looks like a thumper flathead - how long did it go?

What a day! Looking forward to the next report .

Hey Krispy, where abouts in the Harbour are you fishing?

Hi Derek, I'm coming in from the south west, Bankstown. Where ever is the easiest place to launch the boat from and close proximity to the fishing is what I'm after. In saying that though, I don't really mind how far I have to go.

Hi all, need some advice. Kids want to go out in the Harbour this Sunday. 4.6mtr tinny, 50hp tiller steer. They want to chase squid and kings. I'm happy to flick lures for bream. I have no idea where to launch the boat from, nor where to go. All/any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Eli, I did this approximately 4 months ago on a 460 Dory. I fish in strong current 3 - 5 people in the boat. I originally bought a 55lb motorguide and after using it one day, I was lucky enough to be able to return it. I now have a 60" 80lb motorguide with remote. I spent just shy of $1000 on two 12 volt 105 amp hour batteries . A wise old bloke on this site told me what I'm going to tell you. You can't do this a cheap way. Be prepared to spend $4500 - $5500 and then some. You'll need a C tek charger also to look after the batteries. Does it work and is it worth it. You bet. I wouldn't go out in my boat with out it. Save your pennies though and do it properly the first time. I wired mine myself and saved some money. the rest of it is expensive though, but I won't ever own a boat without one. Cheers, Nathan.

Hi stevefish, I fish with my son's out of a 4.6 mtr tinny. We normally flick SPs in estuaries but I've always wanted to try the harbour. I have no experience in the harbour, and don't really know where to go. Where is middle harbour, how to I get there and where do I launch from? What type of fish would you target around the bait balls, and what type of rod and reel set up? Is it something that I shouldn't be trying with my tinny?
