Armpits Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) For those that are in the area Liverpool and close by suburbs. I want to catch some bait for my fishing trip which is on Saturday. I have never tried catching bait at Chipping Norton which is the George’s River. -Can anyone who has had some experience let me know what kind of bait fish can be caught there? -What is the best method, rig setup and bait to use to catch them? -Can they be caught any time of the day and night? -Are they easy to catch and a lot of bait fish there? I have caught bait fish in the past at a different location @ wharfs at night time but that was the only time. So would be appreciated if anyone had experience at the above area to give me some info. Thanks. Edited December 14, 2017 by Armpits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishermanSteve Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Small mullet are plentyful at Chipping Norton mate. A Paternoster with a couple of small hooks and bread always does the trick. I've not had a problem there any time of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishermanSteve Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Mix some bread crumbs fish oil and water to throw out near where you are casting to get them in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armpits Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) Cheers. Are mullets swim in schools? Are they usually out during the day? I noticed that Yakkas are never able to be found in the day time for some reason. Also where do mullets like hanging around? Shallow water near a structure or something? Also what fish love to eat mullet beside Flathead? Edited December 14, 2017 by Armpits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishermanSteve Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I've caught snapper, trevally, flathead and even bream with strips of mullet. I've caught them all times of the day. Chipping Norton seems to have an abundance of mullet and I've caught even areas without structure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
