  3. Thanks for the tip on the crust, will give that a go! thanks! Will get on the floats! A great afternoon by the river! Good idea with the prawn, will give that go too! that's a great idea, will have to try that! Thank you! Keeping things simple means more time fishing! I've not targetted gars either, will have to give that a go!
  4. Inspired by @FishingFables I went down to the Georges River in search for mullet. Armed with bread and tiny hooks, I could see the visible ripples already in the water. I had my fishing buddy (my son) with me and we were keen to catch some fish. I've caught many tiny bream in this area but never had any luck with the mullet. My rig was simple, a 6lb mono straight through to 2 hooks (no sinker). I lobbed my first bits of bread out and the line tightens up within a minute. Fish on! I hand the rod to the little man and in comes a bream, about 20cm. Not bad, not the target species, but a welcome fish all the same! Over the next 30 minutes, we catch 6 bream, all undersized but no mullet. I can see the school of mullet around but no hook-ups. On reflection, the bread is squeezed onto the hook and acts like a sinker and the bread goes down to the bottom where the bream are hanging out. Question for the mullet whisperers, what can I do differently to catch these mullet?
  5. a great feed there, well done!
  6. The taxman strikes again! I remember being on charter and we hooked a really good wahoo (captain said it would have been in excess of 35kg) and then the tax man came. Only got a quarter of the fish back. Still plenty of fillets to go around for everyone on the boat though! Well done on getting out there, looked like great weather!
