Went around my local waterway today in my tinnie as she hadnt been out for a run in a while.
Launched around 5am from Koolewong and motored in the pitch black to a nearby mooring and started to berley up.
First cast I got a 32cm Snapper (strange as I was sitting on a weed bed/sand flat), then followed by a 40cm flattie. Whilst dehooking the flattie my 2nd went for a few runs- I pulled in a 37cm Breambo.
Finally got to dehooking both and next cast I was on again- to another flattie similar size so into the esky with the others he went
Kept berley going and by 7:30am I had another Bream which went 28cm in the esky to join his mates to make 5 keepers.
Caught heaps of throwbacks and just legal breambo's and many more way undersized pinkies which all were released unharmed.
Fresh slimey strips did ALL the damage on lightly weighted 8 and 10lb string.
Very interesting day lots of action cannot wait to do it again, love getitng out solo in the tinnie it has opened up a whoile new world of fishing for me now Im based back up the coast and its can only get better.

PWOAR! - Snaps, Mowies and Pigfish YUMMO!
Insanely jealous mate could go a feed of fresh mowie right about now lol.
Nice report great catch
-
PM sent mate.
CC is a top spot for fishing IMHO-- thats why I moved back here -- there are literally a multitude of options for both LB and boat angling yet without most of the crowds and nowhere near as many w***ers as some other parts of Sydney.
Let me know via PM if you want to come along one time for a dangle
Cheers and Tight lines

Should be good for Monday I hope Nath, coz Im meant to be going on a date... and not a fishing date :074:
Might try to get out tomoz for a dangle am trying to get a new PB Taylor or sambo- given up on beach jew now... NOT!!!!!... late arvo and nights are the go but they're freezing and I REALLY like my fireplace
Yeah you and johnny need to come up- bring a tent or a swag so can do an overnighter or a weekend of it- we will chat about it soon mate and sort out something for sure.

Awesome report mate! Must have been frustrating for the first 4 hrs though. It was all worth it in the end I guess.
So do you normally catch sambos of that size at your spot?
Not quite that big have caught them in singles or a few at best most are 55-60cm with the odd 65cm model taken- but then again I dont normally fish daytimes either, Im used to going nights I think fishing nights is more productive in general but you need to be prepared for anything.
Too cold to fish nights atm besides I I work nights but would go regardless of cold 9/10 times if given the opportunity.

Thanks mate, Im still smiling lol- grin from ear to ear
Just that 70cm model went as hard on 8kg gear with 5kg drag- if not harder than my PB which is 73cm and taken on bream gear (10lb in Botany)... I was actually hoping to crack a Taylor similar size initially lol bugger I ran out of bait... else I would have stayed till 10ish to get the greenback's thats when they come out after sunset- thats when the fun begins...
Oh well going to try again tomoz arvo hopefully have similar results, but only C'n'R Sambo's this time

So with the recent spate of awesome weather one could not resist a beach session so off I trapsed down to my fav BB beach around gentlemans hours yesterday.
Armed with fresh mullet and trust ol slimeys I made my way down the track and onto the beach- perfectly timed it was completely empty.
Rigged up and cast out only 1 rod out of 3.
I berleyed then I waited, and waited... and waited... for nearly 4 hours for the first bight
Around 2pm I felt a few timid bites and thought immediately of small Dart then WHAMMO!- Im onto a good fish that went straight for the surface and attempted to barrell roll the hook from its mouth on the biggest wave available I kept tight on him all the way and I finally landed a healthy 67cm Sambo
After rebaiting out went another lobb into the blue yonder- immediately it was picked up (I must have dropped in on this fish ), cause he took it and went berko- after a few tense moments a 40cm Taylor was washed up.
3rd Cast onto another in a few minutes- but this one went hell for leather Down deep with long runs gave my a great fight the btr6500 was singing then up to the surface for acrobatics. a good 10mins before I took control of a 70cm whopper Sambo! As he put up such a good fight I let him live for another day. What an awesome feeling to watch this beast swim away amongst the foamy whitewater with a big swirl
After this it was a cast per hookup and I landed another 10 Sambo's ranging from 55-65cm till I ran out of bait all released except 2 Sambo's and the Taylor (courtesy of the fish stealing vermin seagulls that took 1/2 my Mullet and quite a few strips of my slimeys GGGGGRRRRRRRR!!!!
After getting my arns stretched constantly for 2 hours I trekked back to the car very contented with an awesome Sambo session all on bait.....
Here's a coupla piccies of the 67cm and 70cm Sambo's as I dodnt bother taking piccies of the rest of them- but it was the best beach session ive had in around 10yrs from this particular spot so am stoked

There's plenty of Sambos around ATM- I bagged 12 sambos + a Taylor in 2 hours from Broken Bay yesterday all on fresh slimey mack's- hectic session all between 55 and 70cm- lost one much bigger literally @ my feet in the wash- which was OK as I released all except 2 for the table + the Taylor.
Also just a warning on the coast- I had my car broken into yesterday while I was fishing- theives took 1 Pflueger Trion and a brand new Baitrunner 4500 I had just picked up from BCF- they smashed the glass on my passenger door and buckled the door frame whilst trying to get in, + they removed my lock completely- mongrel thing to do...
There was noone on the beach so you can NEVER be too careful- and if I catch the sod who did it- well lets say my 12' 12kg UglyStik will be going places it never been before- and its not fishing!

Its in the blood mate that what....
BUT- Inspiration takes many forms- for me its paying homage to my family roots I was taught to fish by my Dad and Grandfather they had the biggest influence in my life frm very young and I eternally greatful for them teaching me.
From the simple things like locating a spot and fishing it regularly and you learn when it fires and when it doesnt- thats most of the fun IMHO some of the best spots are self discovered and fished solo
Also get a buzz from catching my own bait and then using it to catch a feed (one of those things my grandfather taught me that I dont do often anough anymore lol).
first solo session on Berowra
