Hi all
I was hoping to get some help from you guys.
Just wondering if I am doing something wrong as the title implies in regards to beach fishing.
Yesterday afternoon (12/1/17) I went to narrabeen beach planning to fish the high tide at 9.30pm. 2hrs either side of the tide.
I picked my spot which had a nice gutter about 20mtrs from shore.
I set my gear up which is a 15 foot nitro Frankenstein rod with 20lbs braid and 20lbs leader on a shimano Sedona fe 4000
Bait of choice was chicken marinated in garlic and soy sauce (coles) and I had tuna pellets as berley.
Fished from 7.30pm-10.30pm with out a bite.
There were a few other guys fishing there too, but didn't look like they were catching either.
Just want to know if i am doing something wrong?
Fufu
Used to some nice bream/tailor and mullet just to the left of kymeeagh boat ramp. Haven't been there recently so I don't know how good it is.
Futher up river is pretty good too. Right next to st George stadium near the bridge.
Sand side of the break wall looks ok too. Try live nippers there.
Try the beaches along the eastern suburbs. Primarily maroubra beach. Preferably on a run in tide.
I know you said night fishing but just be cautious of surfers
Surely this form of fishing would greatly increase your chances of landing a fish.
Locate good gutters, holes etc drop the bait and wait
You'd have better chances in the estuaries too. Around moored boats, structures etc (land based)
