I bought the $10 specials for my 3 son's when they were young. They always caught the biggest fish? ?? Maybe something in that..... even lost a couple rods that went south while untangling other lines. There are some cranking fish there those bream and that tailor seriously rock. Cheers R&B

Awesome work fella. Very jealous i have not had a decent session in ages. Good on you for releasing. Cheers R&B

Great report there. Yep your mum sure looks line she enjoyed it. R&B

Great report with some good details about the process. Love it when people share like that. The photos of the feed also looks very tasty. Cheers R&B

Some good looking fish there and well done on going light. Cheers R&B

At least you had the opportunity to learn something and get some fresh air Rick. I am back in the office again spent half the afternoon reading fishing reports and getting pissed off Cheers R&B

Great fishing there Dave. A good feed for sure. Good size whiting. Cheers R&B

Great catch off the sand mate. Have you lost that smile yet. Cheers R&B

Well done mate always makes the getting up at 3.30am worth it. Cheers R&B Just saw the photo they ate some serious bonnies you hooked into there. They would have been some good fun. Yipeee

Great feed there. They are such a gun bait nippers anything well eat them. R&B

Great thanks. Yeah that is how i fish for bream off the rocks. Have a great New Years. R&B

Nothing wrong with poor man's drifting especially when you get a bagful like that. Do you just run the sinker down to the hook, have a swivel and short leader or just play around to see what is about. Hmmmm flathead. .. Cheers R&B

Hi Fishraider family hope that you have all had a great Xmas and had a few moments to relax and wet a line. After spending a few days around the house i was going a little stir crazy so decided to get the family and one of my son's mates and head over to Palm Beach for a fish . The tides were looking good at 7pm so arrived around 4.30 to see everyone dissappear for the day. The wind was slightly out of the NW. Had some pillies squid and some yakkas that i bought at the fish shop. The yakkas were pretty fresh considering. Baited up the paternoster with a ganged pillie and a small amount of yakka and placed just at the back of the breakers. Was in no more than two minutes and was getting bites. The kids pulled it in and it was a small flattie. Spent the next hour trying to keep the bait up to the rods that were in the water and get more rods in. Just one bite after the other between flatties dart and small rays. Nothing worth keeping but everyone including the wife caught fish so a good day out. Just as the SSE started up the line that had the whole yakkas on it took a hit. The young fella grabbed the rod and wound it in to see a good sized flounder. At least we caught one keeper. The SSE also made it a little chilly for the kids so stayed until just on 8 and then went home. Would have liked to stick around to cast and troll some unwaited pillies into the breakers as it looked good for tailor. Somedays you just need to know when to go home. ... Have a great 2018 everyone and keep the reports coming. Cheers R&B

Hmmm my favourite.

They taste so good. Means the warm waters are here. Used to bag out on them when i lived in WA. Great fun.

Nice catch mate. I always keep saying to myself that it only takes one good bite to turn a crap day into a good one.

Are they not drummer? We pulled the claws off and the back shell and a back leg. Put the hook through where the back leg was and into the middle of the shell with all the juicy bits

We were down Ulladulla way for a "maint" weekend at another mates holiday house. So we decided to go out for a bit of a fish on Sunday morning. The tide was rising and the water looked great with plenty of wash back off the rocks. There was a nice big gutter running along the rocks so we were fishing simple with a small sinker down onto the hook and using a mixture of old yakkas and pillies as bait. Just casting in and letting it drift. Chopped up a couple hand fulls of pillies and added this into the drift to start the process and then started casting. Well the casting was all we did for the next 1.5 hours. Apart from a couple small bites we had doghnuts. Decided to change tack and cast out my bigger rod with half a small tailor on it. Cast it out set the drag and wait. It was drifting a little and then i noticed that it was moving against the flow. So i picked it up and set the hook hoping that it may have been a jewie but no it had that tell tale sign of either a ray or similar. Spent the next 10 minutes running it back and forth until i finally saw that it was the biggest Wobbegong that i have ever seen. Took another 10 minutes to wash it up onto the rock shelf and then luckily it finally broke the line and swam away. The head was huge i judged it was around 5ft. Mate and i then started to use crabs we gathered and that is when we started to get the pigs every cast was being nailed. Was a very exciting hour or so. Mate said it was the best fishing he ever had. Big smiles all around. Back to the house for lunch and a few well earned beers and watch the V8 at Goldie. Cheers R&B

Good work mate. Glad to see thru are back around. Cheers R &B

Yes mate he loved it.

Took my mate out for a fish this morning and he caught his first fish all be it a throw back shark. He backed it up with another one ten minutes later. Gojo

Great work mate. That is a nice fish. Cheers R&B

Nice bag of bream there. That should keep the family quiet for a little while. Cheers R &B

That is a fantastic lizard.

That's some great pigs there mate. I reckon i have fished there myself. Not this time of year though. Cheers R&B
