Hi Guys!!
Long time reader, first time poster! :)
I have been fishing nearly all my life, and it is something I am quite passionate about and get to do usually two or three times a week.
As of late, I have been really cracking down on chasing my first land based Jew. I have been landing on a boat, and its not much of an issue, however land based I am really struggling to find them! What am I doing wrong?
I collect bait either the night before, and during my session, usually squid and yakkas. I throw them out live until they die, then fillet/strip bait when dead.
I do a lot of fishing in botany bay, and have tried fishing for them at cooks bridge too, but cant seem to find them land based. Got absolutely smoked at cooks bridge in late June, busted 30 pound braid on my twin power after a few good runs.
Anyway, I digress! just looking for any sort of tips regarding bait/rigs, but more so around some spot land based. Not asking for any top secret spots (Unless you would like to PM me, can definitely keep a secret!). Looking for spots around harbour, botany bay, some parts of george's (not too far west), and around Pittwater/spit bridge.
Definitely appreciate any sort of information that can help me tackle my first jew!! feel free to share knowledge for king/bonito spots during the day too. Nothing too dangerous, but happy to explore options and see where they lead!
tight lines fellas thanks a million!
