Nathan moving around is a must in all this murky water , otherwise you will go crazy waiting for a bite. Was doing alot of moving till i found fish to hook up . You appreciate fishfinders more when the going gets tough , worth there weight in gold. Chris.

Great fishing guys , double hook up . crossed lines and still able to land both fish , good efforts and congratulations on your first jew mate. Chris.

Hi Raiders, Hooked the boat up for its first trip of the year and headed out to Cronulla. Headed straight to the heads to gather a few live baits which we found easily. We then headed to the in-close reefs in search of some fish for the families. We managed a couple of Morwong and a huge Sergent Baker from the live bait which went back to fight another day. We used burley to see if that would bring any fish to the trail, bringing only one large shark to the boat. We pulled anchor and tried for some flatheads on the drift but only kept getting millions of undersized fish. We then went to Plan B and headed into the Hacking to have a fish in South West Arm. We anchored up and started a burley trail and we couldn't even get a bite off a yellow tail, it was dead...I have never seen South West Arm so dead in all my life but then strangely enough cruising around in our burley stream came another shark of good size....two citings in one day so there are definately alot of sharks around Cronulla at the moment. Left South West Arm for zero's and headed over to Yowie Bay. We put about an hour of fishing in there for more zero's in which we would have normally picked a few fish up in here. We then headed up to our last spot, North West Arm which saved the day and gave us both a nice catch to take home. My mates bream was the catch of the day measuring 36cm taking a piece of Pilchard off the surface in which he was trying to catch Tailor with. That hungry bream came all the way from 50ft deep to the surface, how hungry he must have been Was a great day out and nice to be out in the boat again. Chris

Quality feed , great catch cronulla beach is definately firing Chris.

Hi yowie Was down lilli pilli last night and soaked a few large mullet with berley in the main channel through the high tide change for no hook ups.Will be down there for another attempt soon. Would like the challenge if it comes my way Chris.

Top stuff All the moving to different spots found you a tasty feed Chris.

Nothing worse than sea sickness , especially after using the kwells. But atleast you nailed a shovel nose out there before coming in. Great work on catching a good sized snapper from in the hacking Great post Chris.

Hi snake Plenty nippers can be pumped from sand flats at cc bridge on san souci side. Chris.

Hi stan The x-rap 30 will hook up marlin , have a neighbour who hooked a marlin just off botany heads on a pilchard colour . He went out trolling it around to see what he could catch and was welcomed with a marlin , so definately worth having in the spread. Chris.

Great efforts guys really nice to hear there are plenty of beakies in close. Look forward to some pics from your next trip . Chris.

Great start rob for 2012 , enjoy those beauties on the bbq. Chris.

Nice catch , top feed mate. Still remember the drummer you put me on last year Chris.

Nice bag of bream , Always nice catching fish in new areas on holidays , Great work. Great work in helping out Hodgey . Chris.

Top mixed bag Nothing tastes better than cooking up a fresh feed of seafood caught the same day . Bet its great to be back out and about , Good work guys Chris.

Well earned catch mate , bringing it aboard with tangles galore. Nice work hooking up on a lucanus jig before the leather jackets got to it first.

Great read tony , Sounds like you put in some entertaining hours to bring home a great feed. Look forward to seeing the eagle rock moves Great catch as always be back on the water soon Chris.

As pred -ater said the jew love this weather. Well worth the effort mate Chris.

Great effort on your first marlin attempt. They are memories for life I bet your keen as to land one now I heard of one being landed last sunday also as they were heading to browns mountain. Lets hope the marlin and dolphin fish keep us on our toes this season TOP STUFF chris.

When its fishing how many of us are so keen and always beating our mates too the ramp Nice work on bagging a mixed catch well done Chris.

Top catch , those ugly gloomy rainy nights fishing sure are worth the efforts :smoke:especially going for big jew. How many times you can put a bait out bad cast , wrong spot etc only to be nailed by jew when there on.Great read Chris.
