  1. I pulled a couple of big one's in from Garie Beach in the National Park on prawns a couple of years ago and apparently there are plenty of them. One mistake I did make though is when you get them home and cook them up for dinner, skin the buggers otherwise they taste quite gritty.

    Thanks for the head ups mate.

  2. I wouldn't have thought so? Caught tonnes of them at times whilst spinning for Flathead. They can be difficult to target specifically which might make them seem rare.

    Flounder really love prawns, so the best place to target them would be areas that hold numbers of prawns. Do some research into popular prawning locations, they are nearly always gun Flounder spots. If you aren't sure, look for shallow, weedy bays. There are plenty of them around Sydney, areas like Iron Cove Bay (Half Moon Bay is good), Rose Bay and Narrabeen are spots I have had success with Flounder. I had a session at Iron Cove where I got more Flounder than Flatties!

    As they love prawns nearly all the ones I catch are on 2" Berkley Gulp Shrimps or the 65mm Squidgie Pro Prawns. So for bait, I would see if you could source some fresh prawns (get some from the fish markets) and work them slowly. Although this might get frustrating as the all the pickers on the flats might drive you nuts!

    Hope that gets you started.

    Cheers

    Thanks for the advice Matt! Will let you know how I go

  3. Hi guys,

    I'm from the Sydney area and have always been interested in catching flounder. Could anyone give me some tip/advice on rigs and where I could catch some.

    Thanks

  4. Hi guys,

    I'm quite a new fisherman in terms of beach fishing. The forecast says that there is winds of 20 km NNW. I was wonder if anyone can help me if this condition is decent for fishing at wanda beach?

    Any help will do.

    Thanks

  5. Hey fellow Raiders,

    I'm planning to hire a small size boat during the easter break at forster. I'm not familiar with the area and not quite sure where to fish. Could anyone give me some tips or advice on where to go or where to fish. I wouldn't mind catching a kingy or even some whiting or flatties if that helps.

    Cheers

  6. Just a update on this mornings session. Wasn't a bad result. Just got to packed with swimmer by 730. I will defiantly be back soon. Maybe try wanda beach if the wind is in my favour. So anything other than a southerly is good to fish there?

  7. What type of rig works good for bream and whiting at the beach. I think I'll be fishing the run in tide. Is a size 4 diamond sinker too big with a double pananoscar rig. Pretty much what I use for aalmon

  8. Thanks guys, I'm planning to get their at 5am so hopefully not to many surfers then. Also is the dog walk entrance next to elouera clubhouse or wanda clubhouse?

    Also what sort of fish can I catch their? I'm guessing salmon but what else? Should I bother buying nippers for the beach ?

  9. Hi Raiders,

    I'm planning to go to wanda beach in the morning on Saturday. It's my first time going their. Could anyone give me some info on the beach and if possible where abouts on the beach is a good fish

  10. Hi guys,

    I have fish on the wall on new South head rd on numerous occasions using beach worms and nippers but I have been unsuccessful on all occasions. Could someone let me know what I'm doing wrong. Am I fishing in the wrong area of rosebay? I usually fish when the sun sets on a running sinker rig with about a 40 cm leader
