    I have never been there but have spoken to a few mates that have & have been reading about it for a few years now.

    I'm not sure about the times of year.

    As for camp sites it depends on whats availaible when you get there & obtain your permits. I'd go for which ever one had the best gutter in front of it! :biggrin2:

    I do know that catching livies can be a problem so take plenty of self caught frozen bait.

    Night fishing is not worth the effort because of the sharks. Burlying a gutter is not advisable at any time for the same reason.

    Otherwise the normal Jew times of before a full moon & after a new moon around the tide changes should work for you.

    Good luck. I'm looking forward to your report! :thumbup:

    Cheers,

    Grant.

    Thanks jewhunter I can not wait to go and I will let you know how it goes.

    Over the weekend I had my Mulloway fishing partner bring over some DVD footage of YALATA BEACH. South Australia.

    This place is unbelievable, the Mulloway and Snapper off the beach was non comparable to anywhere else I have seen. And we have traveled just about everywhere.

    I have made it a must do trip for next year. Has anybody ever been and if so whats the best time of the year and also whats the best camp site.

    For any keen Mulloway beach angler. If you have not heard of this place google it, you will not regret it.

    How can you beat this country.

    Live Bait Spots For Squid And Yellow Tail

    if you give us an area we can be more specific... generally anywhere theres good weedbeds and particularily lights you should be in with a chance for squid.any of the local wharves/jetties hold schools of yakkas and burly will help.. i use mince with a little flour and drag a small hook through so as a little sticks on hook... the yakkas go nuts for this... as for squid try different sizes and color jigs casted over and around weedbeds or lights/shadows on wharves.vary speeds and try everything you can,if they are there you will see them follow if not they might not be there try somewhere else.... different places fish differently and squid are a funny lot,what works tonight may not work tomorrow... thats the fun in the challenge sometimes but can be frustrating when the southerns just follow and play but not hit lures no matter what you try.... good luck where ever you try.... steve....

    I live in Gladesville but i do not mind traveling a bit if it means I can get some live bait to try.

    Thanks for all your help so far the feed back and willingness to help has been excellent.

    if ur a beach fisher, i hear that beach worms are the best bait! catch em at your feet while ur fishing!

    or for jewies live tailer should go well catch em a bit further out from your feet while your fishing!

    salmon and tailor should not be too hard to get on pillies or pillie bits!

    as for squid i dont think you could keep it alive for an hour! without some elaborate set up!

    though fresh caught should work a lot better than brought squid!

    Thanks for the reply, much appreciated, I will try the pillies for tailor and salmon.

    I have never fished with live bait and love fishing off the beach, I have always gotten the freshes bait possible from the fish market however wherever I read I keep seeing people quote live bait is the only way to go for serious fish.

    My question is if you do not have a boat and are only landbased and live in Sydney where can you catch live bait especially squid and yellow tail and what are the best rigs, lures, bait and techniques to use.

    Any feed back would be great, also If I am fishing outside of sydney whats the best way to keep the bait live in the car and keep it alive all the way to the beach say 1-2 hours out of Sydney. Or eve worse trying to keep it alive for the next day

    Thanks in advance
