FishermanSteve Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Hi guys, I'm new to Fishraider, Sydney and Australia. I'm living in Glebe looking to meet other fishermen/ladies. I'm free at weekends and sometimes evenings. I have all the gear and no idea(well... only no idea about great spots to fish in Sydney). Land based fishing as yet to get a boat. So if you're like me wanting fishing company hit me up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishermanSteve Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Just to a jetty at the end of Glebe Point Road in the park area. Thought structure and the boats would give the fish good cover so gave it a crack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
podtrailler Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Welcome steve to fishraider. As weather is warming up there should be more fish in the harbour. Its luck and matter of repetitive spot fishing, one day you catch good feed and next day dougnuts. In late Nov and Dec go to Green point reserve at Watsons bay south side ( looking towards harbour bridge. Couple of hours before sunset there are fishmen chasing big travelly. Its great catch and release fishing if you dont like eating travellies. Use light gear its great fun. My biggest catch there was 57cm. Great numbers of travelly come into harbour maybe to spawn. Good luck. P.s use cheap coles pink prawns No sinkers and burley bread. Edited August 11, 2017 by podtrailler Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could drastically affect crustaceans in NSW as well if introduced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishermanSteve Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 Thank you for both tips. I will be sure to check out that location too. Noted about the prawns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
podtrailler Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Thanks PaddyT. The locals or fishmen uses cheap prawns there. I surely will tell them not to use it when i go there. I always use fresh Hawkesberry prawns but very pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aardvarking Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Hey mate, I'm a fisherman located in Glebe too. I also fish a lot on that jetty when I'm too lazy to plan a proper trip, there's a good amount of leatherjacket and bream there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
