Hi all, was wanting to try hairtail fishing around Akuna Bay is there any issues with the ramp there? I have a small 4m tinny and I’ll be launching solo, would like to try there close to the marina as I understand at night its very dark and fog can be an issue.

Is it only the shaded area on the map? If so looks like you can still target squid around Manly,little Manly and Fairlight

Possibly a surgeonfish they are around there and go straight for structure I've hooked a lot fishing for luderick usually doesn't end well

All good mate,I'd definitely give it a go you never know at the very least use it for burly

That's what's so interesting about catching luderick you just never know,you could brain them one day on the cabbage go the next and they will prefer the weed on the left doesn't hurt having both but i would also concentrate on using the cabbage

I know someone who catches them as far up as silverwater in good numbers, wisemans is a lot further though,I do remember my grandfather talking many years ago that they caught big numbers at Spencer, I have noticed a bit of weed on the rocks around wisemans near the ferry I'm sure they would be there, just not sure of where and tides etc, I'm guessing tide changes when there is less run would be necessary

Hi all, does anybody know if luderick can be caught landbased at wisemans ferry or between there and Spencer?

Thanks for that, if there is no herring would there be any other baitfish there like yakkas,mullet or even squid?

Nice would love to throw one of them out for a decent jew

Just another bait option I have some frozen arrows, herring in the hawkesbury are a gun bait was just interested in trying them in the harbour I've caught some good jew and flatties on them before

Does anyone know if you can get Herring in the Parramatta River? I was told by someone that you can get them at Kissing Point wharf I've never fished that far up the river before

Yes it's an old photo from last year he caught it all on his own I just need to tell him when to strike he usually strikes too early, he got smoked by a few big fish that day also

Cheers mate young bloke loves fishing good to get him off those video games, you nailed the gear on all counts,nice balanced outright that serves me well

All on weed mate didn't get a touch on the cabbage,they're pretty thick in the harbour atm almost guaranteed to bag out will be back out again this weekend with my 10yo son who loves catching and eating them aswell.
