Hen & Chicken Bay last weekend

Recommended Posts

Hey Raiders,

 

Got up stupid early both days last weekend to fish the sunrise at Hen & Chicken Bay in Sydney. Didn't catch anything amazing but had lots of fun. Plenty of flathead out to play. No measurements but would guess flatheads were high 30s - low 50s.

 

I've started filming short clips of my catches & releases rather than just taking a photo to be able to share with friends & family etc. 

 

 

 

Gear used:

Daiwa TD Zero rod 7'3 2-5kg

Shimano Stradic ci4+ 2500 series

8lb braid / 8lb FC leader

 

Daiwa double clutch 95mm in brown suji shrimp

Jackall squirrel 79mm silent in albino chartreuse pirarucu

 

 

Thanks for reading, tight lines.

Until next time

 

Chris

Nice video, Its a good productive bay and despite smaller stuff, yes, theres a good fish catch to be made. I sometimes fish from shore over on Friend Ave as its easy parking and you dont have to toss a line too far out.

ive picked up a good share of solid high 30s bream, low 40s flathead and the odd 50cm tailor.

all on bait

Also down on Wymston Ave , along the shore line or off the sand are great spots. 
as you may know, best fished 2 hours before and up to high tide and two hours on down tide from top.
