Yeah its getting really frustrating
... Been trying kurnell near the caltex wharf, and nearly every single one of the groins there without success, lilli pillie, gymea baths and numerous locations around the hacking where I can get to landbased... I need to get something soon because my confidence on plastics is getting worse and worse!no fish around at this moment mate, my advice is to get on a boat.

Hi just wonder if I can catch yabbie or worms at silver beach kurnell? if not where I can catch some nearby?

thanks in advance!

Shimano Baitrunners are around the 200 mark you'll never look back
absolutely agree

After dropped my brand new gear into the sea, broke a fancy shimano jigging rod fighting with a big fish, and couple of other good rods accidentally, now I am fishing with cheap ones from ******. Anything could happen about fishing, good or bad.
Hope this make you feel better and good luck for the new year!

I have to say i've never hooked a blackfish by myself but my wife got a lot. the funny thing is we always fish side by side and i made all rigs for her. to us i think the difference is patience. when you find out the tricks from other gurus just give it more patience and berly up. time and tide are also very important too.
good luck and tight lines!

Every fisherman has his day but when is mine??

Hi raiders, I’m looking for a travelling rod which can cover as more fishing situations as possible, most of the time from rocks ,beach or beam corners, and more fishing species such as bream, drummer and salmon or rat kingies. Thinking about telescopic rod but worrying about the quality from previous bad experience. Shimano T curve travel 904 looks good but a little bit short and heavy.
Could any one give some advice on that? Would like to spend a little bit more for the right one. Most important criteria, must be easy to carry into the cabin.
Thanks and tight lines!

Hi mate, be careful when you go fishing 'cause some areas are marine reserves,check the sign before you fish. I fished at the tallow beach north corner, with peeled prawn. big parking, good for surfing and camping, and fishing too because no small fish there. If I took 30lb line and 10kg rod i can show more fish here
you may take your catch to AJ chinese restaurant at club byron 18 - 20 Marvell Street, the boss is nice
they have buffet every saturday night.enjoy your time there and tight line
Hi BlueAchilles,
Looks very tasty!
I am heading up to Byron Bay for a week of camping in November and hope to do a bit of fishing.
Could you please let me know where you fished, and what bait you used.
I have never fished up that way!
Thanks,
Ben

Went to Gold Coast for a holiday, stopped at Byron Bay for 2 nights but got only couple of hours for fishing.
20lb lines only land one big drummer 46mm and a bream 38mm, busted twice. Saw other people caught giant tailors with metal lure.
Found a chinese restaurant to cook the pig, very nice

my advice is shimano t curve gt special

Safest place to get Cunji at Kurnell is at the end of the Groynes, at low tide.
Grandad

it is not too late to consider an Alvey
damage control!

Thank you very much boattart, it’s at my front door
Thanks for the advice Kingpig, the thing made me upset is I did exactly what you mentioned. 20lb mono, 00 ball sinker, the old master was less than 1 metre by my side. The only difference I can notice is I was using banana prawn and he was using bloody fresh cunji, we didn’t berly but he put on a lot of bait. I’ve been fishing the same spot for a while and got some pigs and gropers. Like BCF staff said when prawn and cunji both in the water fish will go for cunji. I saw many red crabs at bundeena but not on kurnell side, they all black. I will try with different bait again and hopefully can report something later.

Hi Mate-
I have not seen to much cunjevoi on the southern side of botany but there is plenty avaiable on the rocks off Bare Island and also on the edges of the male nudist beach next to Bare Island.
If you have access to a boat there are tons of the stuff hanging off all the markers and drums in Botany.
Hope this helps.

Thank you very much mate! can't afford a boat now, hopefully can get a kayak soon. will go to bare island to have a look!

I went rock fishing last weekend but completely beaten by the old man beside me. 2 pigs and 1 big groper in 1 hour!
he was using cunji and I was using prawn. Just wonder where I can find cunji near kurnell or somewhere else? Can anyone give me a clue please?
Thanks and tight line!

thanks very much guys! will try these spots out although it's hard to get up in a winter morning

Good catch! fishing with 4lb line is brave! i loaded one reel with it but never had guts to try it. got busted off many times with much heavier lines when LB fishing

Wish I can have the 12ft Ugly Stik surf/rock rod, as a newbie, no boat, no fancy gear but full of passion
. Spend most of my time on beach and rocks around Cronulla.
