  1. Hello All, After few months of successful fishing in Durras North, I have now decided to spend some time fishing in Tathra. If you have not seen my fishing reports from Durras North then you can see them here. Tathra seems very interesting because it seems fairly easy to catch Salmon above 50cm from the beach and there are some rocky areas on both ends of Tathra Beach that I have not explored yet. Drone fishing has been extremely difficult on Tathra Beach due very strong undercurrents that cause too much drift when you drone-drop the bait a few hundred meters out. I have caught 3 Salmon on Tathra Beach so far (2 above 50cm) and they were all caught by good old fashion manual casting. I plan to spend at least a few weeks if not months exploring fishing spots in Tathra. Stay tuned for video reports in this thread! Here is my first fishing report from Tathra:
  2. Another successful trip to Durras North Beach, this time with friends. My friends managed to break two rods, got one on camera. A little snapper had the strangest hookup, with one hook in its mouth and one in the tail. Have a look:
  3. Thanks for the encouragement and also for the suggestions. Will keep your suggestions in mind on future trips.
  4. Tried this recipe for Australian Salmon and liked it. Let me know what you think: https://www.recipeblog.info/2021/05/16/oven-baked-australian-salmon/
  5. Another successful fishing trip to Durras North Beach. Caught 1x Snapper, 1x Salmon, 1x Banjo Shark and 1x Trevally. Some of the video got corrupted so no footage of the Shark.
  6. This is second part of my first trip to Durras North Beach. Caught 2x Salmon and 1x Trevally.
  7. Thanks man. I decided to let the shark go because I could not confirm fast enough if it was legal to keep this type of shark. Instead of spending too much time on ID and potentially killing the fish in the process, I opted for letting it go. Hopefully, I can catch it again sometime.
  8. "stormsandfishing" just told me on YouTube that this is a Bonze Whaler Shark as a gummy would be skinnier, grey with white spots on it’s back and have smaller teeth hence the name.
  9. Went to Durras North Beach recently and had a great time. Caught one 95cm Bronze Whaler Shark, 2x Salmon and 1x Travelli. The video below is a report of how the Shark was caught.
  10. Bengello Beach delivers again. Caught this 52cm Flathead this time, was fishing right next to Bengello Creek. There is a couple of gutters there, both parallel to the shore and vertical to it (seen from above). This Flathead was caught in the gutter that is vertical to the shore.
  11. Sorry guys, have been offline for a few days. Thanks for all the encouraging comments. Appreciated. The drop mechanism of my drone is home made and very simple. I bought one of these kitchen wall hooks: https://www.bunnings.com.au/permastik-white-kitchen-hooks-9-pack_p3950421 removed the metal hook from the plastic body and then used a cloth tape (easy to tear with hands) to affix the hook underneath the drone. When the drone is over the drop area, I just turn the drone around 180 degrees and fly backwards and the rig drops. Simple!
  12. Watch my 2020 fishing rewind video below. It was a good fishing year despite the pandemic and despite the bushfires. How was your fishing year? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkLYWtofNWs
