Only good for hairtail and that's my target this weekend
Incorrect.
The river right now is fishing very well for black fish, whiting, school jew, pan size snapper in Pittwater, gar fish, leather jacket, salmon and tailor.
In fact I get more species in winter in the hawkesbury them summer.

Good on you mate. Would have been very cold with or without waders
-
Thanks all for your feed back
-
Honestly buy FURUNO.
Benefits with a Furuno fishing harbour and inshore reefs?
-
Hi folks,
In the market at the moment to purchase a new sounder and wanted some feed back on the Raymarine A78.
Keen to hear the Pros and Cons .
Thanks in advance,

Who you work for?
-
Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb, March, during 'the dark' of the monthly moon cycle, waining crescent to waxing crescent..
Spot on.
This rain at the moment will really boost the quality of prawns for the season.
-
Very nice. What camera are you using?
-
Well done coast line looks like my snapper grounds between hacking and Wollongong?

Dude bridges are generally placed in the most narrow parts of the river to shorten spans and cut costs on development.
Now these narrow spots will generate more turbulence in the water as the rushing water creates a bottle neck effect. Fishing these spots in large tides can be very slow and you only have a short window of opportunity to catch a fish.
Next time I suggest going between the moons on those smaller tides.

cheers mate but there is an uncealed road (still ok with 2wd) sort of South West of Marra apparently according to the national park website. From end of the road, it said its an easy 3.5km walk down to the campsite so was planning to come down that way
The gates at the end of canoelands rd are permanently shut. Even if you gained access into the track it is quite a drive and definitely 4x4 territory.
Why not get a water taxi or barge to take you barges start at $110 an hour save you slot of hassles.

Why? Read the original post as that's how it was secured
How about you read my post at what point did I say it was ok to cable tie a chain to your vehicle.
-
And so it's ok to fasten the one chain with a cable tie?
No why?

Walk isnt that far at all apparently. Just few kms from the spot you leave your car.
Basin- Im very familiar because my fishing buddy had his boat moored in Pittwater. The fact that place has everything you need sorta put me off. Ah that video, watched it many times actually but I dont think there was tips for upper reaches and more importantly during winter.
Any raiders out there whos playground is in Berowra and knows the place inside out?
Would you be able to get those winter bluenose up that far??
Mate let me tell you from experience. I no the river and especially that part like the back of my hand. Twin beaches which is at the mouth of Murra Murra is a at least 10 km on a boat from Berowra ramp. You walk the shore along each bay and it now becomes a huge walk that would not be very enjoyable.
-
Where would you start walking from?
It would be a mammoth walk border lining impossible.
-
I think it's been pretty quiet of late going by what's coming in at the boat ramps. I went out last weekend and got a bream up near Spencer, - my first catch on the ol' parmesan chicken!But that was the only bite all day. We fish around the Parramatta wreck, Bar Point and the channel at Triangle Island. Though I'm just learning here so don't let my failures guide you. Keen to hear of anyone else's recent success in the Hawkesbury. Where are those big winter breams in the Hawkesbury??
New moon mate lucky to get anything that far up river in such large tides.

Ken is still Ken and looking after his mum after his Dads passing a few years ago.
He hasn't wet a line for a very long time and is hoping to get back into asap.
He says he still drops by every now and then which is great.
Regards Stewy
That's good to hear.
Thank you.
-
A 1 hr walk will take you down to Waratah Bay from Berowra station might be a better option as Coal and Candle is not fishing so well currently.
-
Anybody know how Ken is these days?
-
We have only seen a spec of what is out there. The marine biologist say not even 5%. The biggest issue is how accessible the fish will be to trailer boats or even the bigger boats as they maybe 200 km plus out to sea
-
Slow to very very slow
-
Only need one chain.
The braking lever doesn't have to be up when driving I drive my trailers with no trailer brakes as I believe it's not necessary under my application.
Standard car tyres always look flat when driving under load on a trailer not the safest thing but legal
-
Jewfish are predominantly a summer fish mate
Wrong more people fish in summer hence the misconception. My records suggest otherwise and you only have to look at recent data released by fisheries showing Autumn, Spring, Winter, Summer in that order.

Hawkesbury after recent rain

Mate plan your trip and target species accordingly.
I travel from the mouth all the way up river.
