I am not the gun but squid fishing is like that in sydney. 4 in five casts or 1 in hours. If you can get to the spit bridge you can fish all the way to balmoral conditions do not change that much. Give the area around mosman rowing club ago.

Great report! Ludwicks on the drift is new to me but will have a go next time out.

I will have to try this!!!! I love the proactiveness of plastic fishing but its plastic? one of my bugbears .

Out last Tuesday before the rain chasing kings because I've had no luck on the snapper. So what happens I catch a snapper! Caught on my version of a poor mans down rigger, running barrel sinker to swivel 90cm trace. Just off a reef straight out from manly 35mtrs deep using live yellow tail water temp 21 degrees. Did get some rats at Long Reef also. Not in Scratchies league but made me smile.

Not my ara but good luck crew can be hard to find

Nice haul the wrasse eat well.

Well done lovely report makes me want to go fishing.

Nice report, Most of Sydneys catchment drains through there ( Hawksbury) still draining I reckon. However Im going fishing tomorrow Thursday out of port jackson water looked good today

Wow guess there is some warm water pushing down the coast good effort and yet another good haul of reds.

Thats fishing at least you got out I was expecting three days of rain so made other plans

Yes I can call them by the right name now but they still eat well lol

I have a dry boat but guests can bring what ever they want.

I havent been there but a guy I work with also works the shark nets and said bait fish at all beaches from herring to mackerel and all getting smashed.

Im no expert but you are on the right track. Cant catch them from your lounge room. There is a lot of information here on that spot just do a search.

Thanks Bob I have a few good recipes that these fish are perfect for.

Thanks mate now I know

The black and white boat in the rose bay pick is mine I did not see a burgundy canvas.

Thanks for the ID how do you tell the difference?

Thursday left Roseville about six and set off for the heads a mate told me of good hook ups of bonito trolling towards Bondi. I love bonnies but didnt want to waste the chance at Mahi Mahi so decided to head to the Sydney fad. At 40mtrs saw bait fish jumping/ fleeing so put out two plugs. Got a hook up but lost it so trolled the rest of the way. About 1 km short of the FAD rod goes off plenty of weight after a short fight boated a nice Mac tuna. 50 mts from the fad hooked an even better specimen which took some time to land and went 60+ cm and thick as. Didnt sound or see any dollies, about three boats in the area one spot locked the others drifting so headed in. Got 2 nice calamari at obelisk to round off the day. Out of quriosity I checked out rosebay ramp and found 15min parking with a cafe/sandwich shop.

Nice work was good out there on Thursday

Sounds like a great day out I love fishing but I also love being in the boat. Would be great if there were more places to pull up and get a coffee or use the dunny. Any suggestions for Sydeny Harbour ?

Excellent report the scorpion fish actually are good eating. It looks like you know your stuff so I guess you did not get stung they are notorious for painful stings. The best is to see a a a pair out who both enjoy the fishing.

Brother things happen next time user x wants to use your rod remember this episode forgiven not forgotten

Not hard to believe but I didnt have any bread lol
