Aardvarking Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Has anyone ever fished the flats at parsley bay? I've heard the jetty isn't a bad spot, but I'm wondering if it's worth wading the beach at high tide with lures for flathead, whiting, bream etc. I've been there before for a school picnic day and spent the whole time thinking how good the fishing must be, but I figure it's worth making sure it's actually a decent spot before I waste the last day of the school holidays.

EnOz43 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) If you mean the enclosed swimming area, I've never seen anyone fishing there. You may try your luck in the morning when there are no swimmers. The jetty is a good spot but it's packed during the day but if you go early you can find a spot. Rocks on the north side of the jetty are worth trying and usually there's a spot or two. I fished Parsley Bay quite a lot couple years ago and I caught 61cm Trevally there. I also caught tailor, flathead, luderick, bream, squid, yakka, red morwong. Best times are at dawn and dusk. Use burley.

Smasher Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Around the moorings is a good spot for squid. Other than that I've only ever caught rubbish like bream & undersized snapper. Edited April 29, 2018 by Smasher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
