  1. Hit the rocks at north Maroubra from about 5am to 7.30am. Pretty slow, scored one nice salmon but no other touch all morning. This spot can really fire when they're on, but clearly they're not really on... Few other guys there fishing for drummer and optimistically kingfish but got nothing when I left. Also got in trouble from the missus going fishing while she was sick, hence early departure, oops!

    Hey mate,

    Where did you fish @ maroubra fish?

    Rocks close to the pool?

    I always fish the beach..

  2. got out by 6 am but there was no action until about 10 am. Had some big sambos chasing my poppers hooked one right at the rocks but it spat the hooks on the first jump. Kept at it for a while, then changed to a raider and hooked up on the 3rd cast after a series of strikes with no connection... The hooks we set well enough for me to let it exhaust its self with acrobatics and runs. My mate got down on the lower ledge and helped land it :) There were a few more hookups and frustrating chases but no more fish landed.

    Well done mate..

    Where about were you fishing?

  3. Bithry is a tidal inlet about 20 minutes north of tathra salmon all year round much bigger models in winter obviously and during summer usual suspects like flathead and bream. Wouldn't bother chasing bream or flatties till he water warms up there though at the moment at 13 degrees the salmon are loving it though

    ah right. .. thanks mate!

  4. Great work man! Nice to get a couple of good fish after a drought. I've had pretty much the exact same experience over the past couple of months, been praying for the better weather to kick in.

    Also yet to get any fish on vibes, I can get them vibrating in the water okay, but they're so expensive I'm almost afraid to use them. I saw in Ray's Outdoors they're $12.99 each, but today you could get 5 for $25. Thought about picking some up, but went for the plastics instead.

    Get the vibes from Kmart and metal lures.. They are cheap and work great!

  5. When off the beach... cut the head off and put them head down into the sand to bleed them when you're still fishing... then smoke them! Get that dark meat out OR make fish cakes out of them!

    Good fun on light gear! Just casting in the surf? North or South? I found by the rubix cube a productive spot for Salmon!

    Yeah mate,

    First salmon so didn't know :P

    Next time, i'll bleed it..

    I was fishing just in-front of the surf club..

    Never fished infront of the rubix, i might try.. couldn't sport any gutters there this morning..

  6. 100000% Aussie salmon and I believe a first for you that you have wanted to catch

    I new you would have success and must of been heaps of fun on that gear

    Well done

    Nops didn't jump but I knew it was something decent as it was pulling really hard..

    Then started going sideways.. Just couldn't stop it..

    But managed to land it ;)

    That lure is allright, cost only $3.50 from K-mart...

    got couple of undersize flatties on it as well..

    Hey mate,
