IF that doesn't look tasty.........i dunno what can!!!!!!!!!!!

If i was bottom bashing Browns i would not care if some boat stopped and dropped within 5m of me to fish the bottom although any sense in them would soon realise 5m is too close as the line gets a bow in it and could cause problems, however i would have a problem if someone did that to me while we are cubing, Lukes original question was about bottom bashing, i think you strayed a bit and got into shark fishing and cubing, two different types of fishing, i agree with you whole heartedly about the cubing but in this case where he is asking about bottom bashing, i dont think people would care as much as one thinks so.
I would like you agree to raise the issue of people driving thru peoples cube trails and sharks trails and start their own trail within metres of them, i think thats wrong, but on a few occasions i have let people sit in my trail, but only the people that i knew.

Anthony cubing and bottom bashing is different! I understand i would get the poo poo's if someone sat in my cube trail or drove thru it, sometimes it may have taken hours to start it and finally get the fish in it, but bottom bashing ettiquette is a bit different champ. It a big plateau on Browns and there is room for everyone.
Sadly with more and more boats fishing these days, and not everyone is on the net to find out proper manners out there or they just have not been told, im sure it will only get worse in the future.

Probably not the best way to make friends...
Find your own ground mate, theres a lot of mountain to share.
As if!
I didn't say to sit right on top of a charter boat or anyone else, but geez in the immediate vicinity you can't go wrong, like YOU said it is a lot of space!!!!!!!!!!!!! If people are dropping within a 1km2 area then im sure you can fit in there somewhere, no one owns the water!!!!!!!!!!!Im not there to make friends im there to catch fish!
-
Luke, on a good day there are many boats out there fishing the bottom, im sure you can see where people are dropping, well in the immediate vicinity anyway so you can just squeeze in between them and try it out. I would suggest looking for a charter operator and dropping very close to him. Ive fished the bottom right on the marks given on the net for the place and have done ok. My sounder cant read over 60m! Hope this helps.

Great catch and like said nice Whiting too!

A month ago, my mate got two game rods by the mob in question, the reel seat would do 360deg turns around the blank, he took them both back and got Daiwa rods. They felt crappy, just my opinion.

Splendid work lads.
-
Thats a good haul if ive ever seen one! Top feed or bait!

East Reef can produce some nice Snapper at times.

I'll ring you soon!

Dave, Jeffrey st wharf under the harbour bridge on Kirribilli side holds heaps of squid, sometimes they are finnicky though.
-
Broadbill for sure!
I second that!
-
Any info on fight time?
Thats tremendous for a lady!!! Well done to her.
-
Its gonna come Chris, i may be fishing that sexy wharf on Saturday night if you are keen, ring me. I'll be there with my GF, not hoping for anything but we'll give it a go.

If the Kings and other fish are there they will take anything. Some guys off Sydney have been using $2 Spanners with hooks tied on just to save money from bite offs from Jackets. They will take anything if in a frenzy.
Here is a shot of a Samson taken off W.A on a Spanner. Which is a common practise.
-
You can keep them, that lady was just being a busy body!!!!
They are ok to eat if cooked right.
-
Try fishing to any moored boats around the corner.
-
Wicked read champ, great report.
Should have maybe weighed the fish at the tackle shop?
-
top fin there well done
,what was the water temp where you caught it?
I did not catch it, my friend did on his boat. Temp was 19deg
-
Awesome Fin! Well done to you
-
That sucks about the lack of fish, oh well all we can do is try.
-
I fished Saturday and water temp was 15deg all the way out and got to 16.6deg, 55km out from the heads, water turned Blue about 50km out but we did not stay til the arvo and got nothing. Maybe the arvo and sunset would have produced?
-
Try the 12Mile and the Peak, look for structure out of Sydney on the bottom, i know a few guys that jig in 30m of water and well, straight out the heads somewhere.
