anyone going to the easter show?
my brother said there was a demonstration on how to use lures in a huge fish tank. he said you can just see the fish follow the lure.
just wondering if anyone is going would be nice to post a video of it? pretty please...
Saw it a couple of years ago and paid $5 for some soft plastics.Work a treat,especially the white ones.I caught 3 tailor and a 37cm Flattie in 4 casts and believe I had a monster Bream before being busted off on the 5th cast.Bait was failing.

A mate and I went out for a quiet session with a couple of drinks on hand and I had decided we would hit a few different spots in the Hawkesbury but all fruitless.We moved to the old fav of mine X spot and waited for the sun to come up.I had explained to my mate once the sun gets high enough and removes the shadow on the water the fish will come on.Sure enough just as I finished the next 15 minutes were mayhem.Baits being smashed everywhere for about 20 minutes.On the menu was 3 over 40 cm flatties,a 46cm Jewie and a large number of undersized fish of flathead,bream,snapper and tailor.
A question I would like to raise though is if anyone has ever caught a John Dory up the Hawkesbury?I had a fish chase my bait to the edge of the boat that looked similar to a leather jacket but brown in colour and the ugliest fish I have ever seen.I personally have never caught one before and believe this is what I saw but never heard of them up there.In all a great day out with top weather.
Sorry no photos this trip.

If the motor all ready has the hosingattachments needed, not sure but probally pick one up at one of the 2 big boating suppliers otherwise just get a cheap $2 hose multi function sprayer with a piece screwing in at the bottom of the hadle and you will find these fit as I used this when I could not find the original at first.

Seen rumours on the site before that there are no fish in the Hawkesbury.I took my Dad and little bloke out on the water for thier first time in my new boat.The night beforre was a massive storm and thought of cancelling the trip but I am glad we didn't as it was a gorgous day with plenty of fish.The smallest fish my little bloke caught which was a snapper about 2 inches long,I think the hook was almost bigger than it.Flathead, tailor, snapper and Bream in thier droves.Threw alot back being under size but came home with a good feed.

Although the storm had hit the night before,two of my mates were still keen to go and so was I for a hit down the Harbour chasing the kings that everyone is writing about.We tried to get live squid but to no avail as it rained the entire time which was suppose to be occasional showers.
We had managed to raise a few squid on bait but not lures and failed to land them though.
The peckers were out in force landing a few small snapper when we watched my mates rod bend over for the first time in the outing.Line peeling offand his first hook up to a king his blood was pumping all excited.this poor felow does not fish to often and when we told him you got to throw him back his to small he was gutted,and he did.It was only about 50-55cm but he was stoked.We moved closer to the shore for some shelter as it was a little rough where we were.My other mate was floating some squid and bang off goes the line zzzzzzzz another king,measuring on 65cm.We tried some trawling but the seas were still very rough.We moved just inside Bradleys Head and managed a few small fish.
Considering the weather we were out in a good day out even though it was not to productive.Beat working.
Pic is my mate with his first king.

Went to Bawley Point for a few days and decided not to take the boat as it usually rains whenever I head south,so packed the beach rod and thought I would try my luck at something I do rarely.Fished for just a couple of hours each arvo and could only land a banjo shark each time. Well it beat cathing nothing at all but next time the dam boat GO'S.By the way it was perfect sunny days everyday,of coarse.
It was a great trip away otherwise with plenty of wildlife around.

Awsome, Evacool esky still didn't fit it,just awsome.

i would take a a 4.3metre quinie offshore,firstly the motor would have to be in good nick and reliable ,all the necesary saftey equipment ,plenty of fuel for the trip and some for reserve make sure you log on to the vmr or coastgaurd up that way ,and make sure you check the weather report,comonsense should prevale if you think its to messy or rough head for home ,heres some proof that small boats can fish offshore
Thats sick,well done.

People need to stop fishing all the traditional highly spoken locations and try some new spots,they are there,just got to find them.

NIIIIIIIIIIICE!!Wish I had one.

Question is it only me and my imagination, but does anybody else find it that when you rest your rod after holding it for an hour to reach for a snack or drink or to do anything else besides hold the rod the fish smack your rod like no tommorrow? Can they feel our pulse through the line?

Nice, caught my first 1st today followed by anohter 3 but only schoolies around 40cm mark.

great news mate. I used to fish a spot regularly called wondabyne.. its up mullet creek way. I fished there when I was a kid over 30 years ago. Anyways, nostalga getting the better part of me, me and a mate went up that way a month ago.. did an overnighter there and I landed the biggest bream ive ever seen. no photo sorry. I scored heaps of school jew, one nice flathead and something that looked like a swordfish or shark type fish. Theres a pontoon there and we fished off that. Might be worth a look in a boat.. ive heard it is a good spot for jewies from sopme of the older locals there.
Cheers,will check it out one day.

Went straight to my favourite spot for flathead head but there would be little of that as today was a day for catching a new species for me,JEWFISH.Not one,two,three but 4 and unfortunitally all around 40-42cm so they all went back.The spot was firing on all cylinders.Catching Bream,Snapper,Jewfish,Tailor and a late Flattie.We ran out of prawns and turned to the squid hooking up 5 Blue swimmeres on the rods but only landing 3.Did not move from the spot in 4 hours as the bites were constant.
Awsome day out and good to see the Hawkesbury on fire.

If only I had caught a fish that size at seven,I do not think I would have ever started working at 16.Would have been to busy chasing fish.

I also saw this a little back and the other boat in Flint and Steel Bay, I too thought they must be overlaps as the boats are not on thier sides which I woould expect them to be.Will have to see if the fishfinder picks up anything next outing.
