JUST WONDERING IF ANYBODY HAS BEEN FISHIN THE GEORGES RIVER FOR BLACKFISH LATELY. ANY FISH BETWEEN GOOD OLD CHIPPO AND LAGURNO. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

mate what type of hooks are you using if they are being straightened. i myself use mustard 92554 2/0 suicides and to my knowledge i have only heard of 2 being straightened and this was by fish in excess of 3kg.

THE TIDE I FISHED WAS FROM LOW TIDE INTO THE RUN IN TIDE BUT YOU NEED A BIT OF WASH AT THIS SPOT BECAUSE IF THE SEA IS FLAT THE FISH WONT BE THERE AS IT IS ONLY APPROX 10 FEET DEEP. THE RIG I USED WAS TO HAVE THE SMALLEST SINKER AS POSSIBLE STRAIGHT ON TOP OF THE HOOK OR NO SINKER AT ALL AND FISH MID WATER AS IT IS A VERY ROUGH BOTTOM BUT YOU NEED TO BE THERE AND GET THE BERLEY GOING ABOUT 1 HOUR TO 30 MINS BEFORE DAWN.

I WAS FISHING OFF THE ROCKS ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE COAL LOADER ON THE NORTH EASTERN CORNER OF THE PLATFORM. NOTE: A BERLEY TRAIL OF BREAD WAS NEEDED TO KEEP THE FISH IN THE AREA

yes mate you still can but you have to park at the top near the coal loader and follow the tracks leading south fron there.

FISHED FROM 6am SAT 24TH TO ABOUT 11am BAGGED OUT ON BLURTERS UP TO 1kg IN AN HOUR THEN MANAGED TO GET 7 BREAM TO 0.8kg ALSO BAGGED OUT ON SALMON TO 3kg AND 4 TAILOR TO 1.4 kg ALL OF THESE FISH WERE TAKEN ON PILLIES & PEELED PRAWNS. GEAR USED WAS A 650 A5 ALVEY WITH 9 POUND LINE AND A 4 WRAP SNIDER 4144 CUSTOM BUILT 12 FOOT ROD. LOCATION FISHED WAS THE COAL LOADER OR SOUTHERN END OF CATHERINE HILL BAY.

mate locate gwandalan bowling club then look down the lake from there it would be about a 5 minute run directly down the middle and fish on the south eastern corner

FISHED AROUND PULBAH ISLAND FOR 17 BREAM UP TO 1KG, 3 FLATHEAD TO 2KG ALSO MANAGED TO GET 73 BLUE SWIMMER CRABS BOTH IN WITCHES HATS AND HANDLINES NOTE ALL THESE WERE MALE ONLY MANAGED 4 FEMALES WHICH WERE RETURNED TO THE WATER ALSO A LOT OF CHOPPER TAILOR AROUND WHICH BECAME A PEST WITH BITE OFFS ON LIVE PODDYS.

I HAPPENED TO BE THERE ON SUNDAY WHEN THIS GUY WENT IN AND THE SEA WOULD HAVE BEEN PUSHING 3 METRES AT LEAST ON SOME OF THE BIGGER ONES THAT CAME THROUGH. THERE IS NO WAY THIS GUY SHOULD HAVE BEEN WHERE HE WAS. HE WAS TOLD A FEW TIMES NOT TO GO DOWN TO THE LOWER LEDGES BUT AS HE DID NOT UNDERSTAND ENGLISH WELL YOU SEE THE END RESULT. I SPOKE TO THE RANGERS ABOUT THE ANGEL RINGS AND IT TURNS OUT THIS GUY WAS VERY LUCKY AS THEY ONLY REPLACED THE RING ON SATURDAY AFTER SOMEONE HAD STOLEN THE OTHER ONE. ( THESE PEOPLE WHO STEAL OR DAMAGE THESE THINGS NEED TO BE STOPPED)
