Hey Raiders, i plan to have a charter with a mate some time this year. They offer specific charters like kingfish charters, jewfish charters, mixed bag or sport fishing. I plan to have a crack at landing my first big jew on the jew option that fishes the Hawkesbury with live bait and fresh bait. I have been out with this charter before for the mixed bag and we caught snapper, tailor, blackfish, bream, flathead and slimies. It was a bit simple but i know that this jew option is very successful! have seen them pull in a 20kg jew next to me at the vines! he knows his stuff. Ideally i will book for the start of September before I leave for the US for a month. Can anyone point out the best times of the year for jewie fishing in the estuary?
