Hi guys Looking at spending 2 days in Terrigal next week. Got a heavy spin setup, light spin setup, and 9 weight fly setup with me. Keen on casting some lures (not bait as don't have the gear with me) land based. Have a car so will be mobile. Does anyone have any suggestions on places to try, what with and times of day/tides? Thanks in advance. Kieran

Thanks Jdanger. Are there any fishing shops that you know of in the Bondi area which would be able to advise on where to give things a go?

Sounds good - I'm in Sydney next week for a few days and plan to give some of the ledges a go... Fingers crossed!

Do these Kingies not take lures often? Is live bait far superior?

Hi guys I've got a few days in Sydney next week and have got my 9 weight fly gear with me. Would love to have a go at some flathead or anything else that can be tempted by fly. Am not from the country so not sure what to expect so any advice on patterns to use, where to have a go and what tide state/time of day would be really appreciated. I will be based in Bondi. Cheers Kieran

Thanks HenryR - very useful!

Thanks Royce - will send you a pm.

If they are there then wouldn't be too hard at all I reckon... What are the numbers of fish on these points like? In mid November...?

That would be a very nasty surprise....! Thanks!

Saboo thanks for the suggestion... I have been looking at Jervis bay with interest but I concluded that I will there too early on in the season... Or am I wrong? Not anticipating catching a Marlin so if there's other big pelagics around then I'd defo be keen to give Jervis bay a go... Let me know what you think. Is there somewhere I could camp/stay down that way? Cheers Kieran

Thanks Mauricio. Sounds like a good option. Who/where would be best to get the local information on the ledges there?

Thanks for this - will be prepared.

Cheers - have sent you a PM.

Hi Nick Thanks for that - currently in China so YouTube is blocked... Frustrating! Have caught flatheads on fly before so will give them a go... Once I'm out of China I will check the video out. Kieran

Hi guys I'm going to be passing the blue mountains area mid-November and may have a day or so to play with. Have got my 5wt nymphing gear with me and would love to have a go at some trout. Not from Australia and have never been before so any advice anyone had on which river and where to fish would be great. Cheers Kieran

Hi all I am going to be in Sydney for a week in mid-November and would love to have a go at fishing some of the ledges which are accessible from land. I'm not local so am starting from scratch in terms of knowledge of the area. I will have a 50lb spin/popping set up with me as well as a 9wt fly set up too. I will be staying in the Bondi area and may rent a car for a few days so I could be mobile if needed. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could have a go at throwing some lures/poppers for some pelagics/game fish? Also the best time of day/tide to fish them and what works best? I would also be keen to try throwing a few flies around in the harbours/flats/beaches so if anyone has any advice there that would be great too. I'm based in Kenya so am used to walking in to inaccessible areas and roughing it so have no worries if there are any off the beaten track options. Thanks in advance! Kieran
