Thanks guys. I’ll try to get on more often. It’s just that I’d seem to be putting up the same posts and I run out of things to say. 😀

Do you think for whiting this time at year best will be around the caravan park or near the mouth of the channel?
I don’t know. It’s very shallow. But I’d say at night would be your best chance and either live nippers or worms.

hi stapo are you scoopin from boat or shore..i was thinkin bout throwin vsea in at gorokan bridge and comin down to try in the main channel or northern channel...rick
Scooping with waders on. If in boat the North channel would be best. Near the bridge. They come out of the weeds. But saying that I have not got any other reports from that area. Maybe next dark. It’s still only early days.
Cheers

Good one Steve. Great to see you back in to what you do best. Cheers mate, bn
Thanks Neil. For those who don’t know I’ve upgraded from 5 stents to 7. All good. Fully retired now. Yes papa. I was on my own when I caught those ones on Monday.
Last night I took a friend perfect conditions calm and clear. Not a lot of prawns. We worked hard for 1 kilo.
Lots of small whiting swimming around and one monster at my feet all night. Well over 40cm. Harder to catch on a line than you think. I watched him and he didn’t chase the prawns. I have caught them in my net before but he was too quick.
All good fun.

Good to see they are there i have never tried prawning
do you ever chuck one back out as a bait?
Oh yeah. There’s some nice whiting out there at night.

So far the prawning has been a bit slow. But the good news is they are a lot better size than last year. These schoolies were hard to catch but we’re very tasty.
As the water warms the prawning will get better. I wouldn’t get too excited as yet.
But you never know.
Cheers Steve.

Thanks mate. I got lucky, it was in a bargain bin of old stock. But the owner didn't realise the line was so old, they'd removed it from their system and didn't actually have a price for it!
I've had mine on for about 5 years now. It's the gold colour line. Still floats ok but I'm nearly down to the backing. Lol.
Prawning in the wind?

Yes agree. It’s a visual thing. A slight southerly is good for the Entrance channel.
Tides are the most important thing prawning the channel. Tide running out the best.
Cheers.
