Hey guys...well..i went up to my spot at chiswick around 11pm which was packed out - both rock areas including the wharf.
I thought theres no way there'll be place to fish at this time at any local wharf.
So i ended up driving to brooklyn...i shoulda went to the railway bridge spot but it was already getting late, i was on my own and wasnt sure if the gates wouldve been closed of...wasnt too keen on walking the track and the last time fished there i caught so many eels and catfish that it left a scar on me.
So i ended fishing at kangaroo wharf, just off the brooklyn bridge.
I had a 1Litre milk bottle filled with squid ink for burley...first time im trying this...punched a few holes on the bottle and set it out for burley.
I set squid strip on 1 rod and live tailor on the other rod.
It wasnt till about 2.30 when i gota a small run on the squid rod...at that instant i was taking the hook off a livie tailer i had just caught..just as i took the hook off, the rod went off...by the time i got to the rod, the fish was long gone...I probably shoulda waited for another run, but being impatient as i am i reeled it in and had nothing, squid was untouched which says that it was most likely a jewie...i was pretty disappointed at myself but im suspecting that it was only a soapie, just from the way it ran.
Then at about 3.30 got another run, hooked it up, reeled it in...a sting ray...this finally gave me the courage to pack up and leave.
Left about 4am empty handed.
Wasnt expecting a big catch from the beginning of the night anyway.
I really need some new spots...
Perhaps il take jewgaffer's advise and give railway bridge another chance on the run up.
Sorry to bore everyone with a dry report.
Better luck next time.
