  1. Bream, blackfish, tailor, flathead, whiting and even jewfish at high tide!

    Blackfish and breams at the camping park. Flatheads near the channel in front of the park but virtually anywhere, jewfish play your luck.

    There is an article that has a map of all the good spots on the Lakes. Google for it

  2. I read a lot about storm fishing and what I can get of this is the best time for fishing is when the barometer is going down. Not when it is low but really when it is decreasing. And usually it is before the storm arrives and up until it ends. The articles then say that when te barometer goes up, which is when the sky is clearing up after the bad weather the fish usually will be quiet.

    Also, after a long period of high pressure, there will be periods of decrease of pressure usually around mid day which is also OK to fish.

    Does that apply to all species? Not sure...

  4. Lol. I can imagine the face of the people passing by "what is that guy doing with that bazooka stuff!" But the challenge of catching a worm with it is appealing :-) but I wonder if a beach worm would actually put its head far in trap though.

  5. But the water will be rather cold at night, no?

    If someone goes there for prawning, I'd love to join. Got the gear but missed the opportunity this year...

  6. @krause, our beach worms can get 3 meters long. And I don't think even the average 1.5m ones will fully enter the box. They usually tend to try and pull the bait.

    Maybe with a trap you can leave it there and if the worm get trapped he will get locked until tired and you just pull him out. But as Squidmarks noted, they have tendency to snap their body and you might end up with only the head in the trap.

  7. For me it all really depends how well I know the spot. If new to me then I might stay for up to three hours but moving around within area. This because each spot might be productive at different stage of the tide or time of the day.

    If I know the spot well and have arrived at targeted time with the bait for the expected fish and some good burley, then I won't stay more than 45mins. I once moved spot every 20 mins and started to catch something after few changes.

    Depending on the current or weather the fish might prefer to gather in different types of spots. Need to find where they are, but still sometimes they just won't bite...

  8. From the lake near the car park there are plenty of yabbies!!! Get a pump out

    I've always been using 10lb braided lines for beach fishing. This allows me further casting. Got few issues of tangles but never been big deal. You can always bring another spool or reel with mono if too much weeds. But usually when it happens I just go fish the lake instead of reeling in the weeds...

  9. Hey guys

    I just got myself the 201DV. A common chain store (will not name but PM) has a clearance on them, you can get them for $145.

    The 201 at $130 and the 151DV for $125. If the shops don't have stock (like mine in Gosford) you can try to get them online.

    I'm now looking for a deal for the battery and charger :-D
