    67 is a great flathead especially on a lure well done!

    Cheers mate i am only 15, so i was extremely excited when i saw it and nearly fell of the shark net!!!🤣🤦‍♂️😲

    Put up a mint fight!

    Had to try to not fall off while skull dragging it to the sand, while it was head shaking!

    It couldn't have been hooked any better, as i only had light leader and its teeth were nowhere near the leader thanks to the weedless hook straight in the corner of the mouth

  2. I know there is lots of posts about this topic, but just wondering about topwater bream lures

    Four from a shop, (looking at walk the dog lures),(i have a free a shop 10 dollar voucher and wanting to spend it on topwater)

    Bassday Sugapen 

    Lucky Craft Sammy

    Megabass Dog X

    Savage Top Prey

     

    Should i get the top prey (kind of minded to) or just go for the good quality/more expensive ones

    (what colors are favourites)

    And when does topwater really turn on for bream and whiting

    Glad of any help

    Cheers

    If you search for just "mort" you will find 2 pages of fishing reports and the like ;) 

    Thank you very much!!

    Just what i was looking for👍👍👍

    The search bar is a bit touchy, sometimes you just can't find what you want :) 

    Cheers

    Darling harbour has some massive bream but they say its private property and you can't fish there but it's not true. Use Hots chips as bait and you'll get into some monsters 40cm plus if you are lucky which there are many! Just go in the early morning at 4am and fish till the security guards get there. You can also catch kingfish and whatever is there on pier 9 in Darling Harbour good luck!

    Mate i went there early one morning and fished just outside the maritime museum and a security guard came and said that i can fish over the other side of darling harbour and up around the sydney wharf apartments(i hooked up to a solid 35 cm+ bream but i lost it right beside the boardwalk, on a zman grub), i would say just straight away go outside the maritime museum next to the submarine (big bream hang around and they are fat because everyone feeds them),until you get kicked out and just be polite and move along to the board walk up around the sydney wharf apartments, look on the inside edge of the boardwalk, fairly shallow and if you see one cast away from it and try not to spook it (there are usually some just sitting under the boardwalk) hope this helps

    If I think you mean the bay with Balmain wharf area, where the ferries park on one side and the tugboat wharf on the other side, go to the end of Cooper st , Balmain. Walk your kayak down along a gravel path to the wall area you mentioned. In the right is a small beach area. (At low tide you can crouch walk under it to other side of tugboat wharf. )

    Launch the kayak from that sand area. I've seen kayaks get put in there no problem.

    As for fish, it's a good area and can take some work. From shore, good for decent bream, mid size flathead. I've also seen squid , mullet, swimming by as well.

    I've seen water busting so kingies or salmon would be about. 

    Are there any other spots like this that are near and would be better fishing?

    I went there but didn't have a rod and just thought it could be a good spot

    you could try launching from simmons point as it would cut down the distance and you can see the ferrys coming.

    On google maps it looks like a bit of a sandstone wall around the point so dunno if i could launch it there

    (end of Lookes ave you can see the wall)

    Might be able to launch it at the end of Nicholson st

    Or that could be a private jetty 

    Dunno

    summer holidays are coming up, so lots of fishing and i am looking for some new spots to go to

  8. Hey guys just wondering about hitting mort bay/balmain wharf and the surrounding structure by kayak

    That suspended concrete slab looked perfect structure for a big bream (unfortunately i didn't have a rod)

    Couldn't find any topics on fishraider of  this place 

    Glad of some advice

    Might just hit it in the next couple of days and put up a report of it

    Cheers

    this might be a bit far away but, the north east point of Goat island often has Kingies.

    Was thinking of going to balmain wharf and hitting the underneath of that suspended slab, maze of pylons underneath it, would have to be a few bream under there 

    If i didn't get anything it's probably a 1 km paddle from there,(bit scared of crossing the channel though, with all the ferries around)

  10. I don't want to be taking over anyone's secret spots but just wondering about good kingfish spots off the kayak

    I've only ever caught one kingie (55 cm) and that put up a sick fight (on a dead snapper's tail🤔🤔🤔, undersize snapper were all i had been catching, I was trying to get yakkas!!)

    I want to get a legal one off the kayak! :) 

    Cheers

  11. Hi All,

    I am 15 years old, i live in Carlingford and have recently purchased a "kayaks 2 fish nextgen 10", sick kayak BTW 

    I have taken it out on a few early saturday mornings, but come back with nothing

    Been to Narrabeen lagoon, Apple tree bay boat ramp and Balmoral, flicking soft plastics for flatties and hard bodies for bream and flatties.

    Haven't really got into bait yet, should I?? (I do want to get into live baiting for kingies)

    But i am just needing some general guidance as to some great saltwater, (and freshwater) fishing spots and how to fish them. (trying to stay within 30-50 minutes away)

    Cheers all, and any guidance is great guidance
