  1. Headed down to Narrabeen yesterday evening for a fish in the lake .

    Started fishing about 7pm . Live beach worm straight on the hook , first cast . Bang ! Onto a whiting just under legal :( 25cm

    Seemed to be the story of the whole night . Fished till about 12 pm & ended up with 10 whiting between the 2 of us . 6 on my behalf & 4 on my mates . All around the 23 - 25 cm mark :(

    Good fun on real light gear !

    No keeper fish but still a great night :)

    Just out of curiosity can anyone help me out as to why we couldnt get into any of the bigger ones ? Or couldnt get into any flathead . My last 2 whiting that I caught were on whole prawns .

    Cheers

  2. Hey guys .

    Was looking at getting out for a arvo / night sesh around sydney somewhere & was just wondering if anyone can help me with some good landbased spots for flathead , whiting or bream & some squid ?

    Any good places around the hacking ? Or anywhere really . Open for Suggestions .

    Thanks in advance

  3. Hi Rhys, your mate sure was funny when he won the boat and they said to produce 3 forms of id(with tongue in cheek):biggrin2: and he started to fumble around with his wallet even though they kept saying they were joking. Congratulations to your mate hope the boat brings him a lot of enjoyment.:thumbup:

    Regards Jeff

    Yeh . He was over the moon ! Haha .

    Could barely speak . But good on him :) & Im sure he will :)

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  4. Sounds like you boys had the bad luck like we did :ranting2:

    We had to do 6 trips in total . Penrith To patonga :ranting2: Boat problems :/

    Dissapointing weekend regarding the fishing .. But still a weekend on & around the water , Camping with the boys beats anything else :)

  5. I fished it .

    & Yes winner was 13 . 7 Kg Jew .

    Had a rather dissapointing weekend with boat problems . All up 6 trips there and back from Penrith to Patonga Getting boats fixed & then eventually swapped:ranting2: ]

    Bad luck for the weekend . But my mate that came with us in the comp ended up winning the lucky door prize . He was absolutely speechless about winning the boat as you would . :yahoo:

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  6. Having just bought a3.5m rib I was thinking of taking it out on Saturday. Planning on putting it in at Appletree bay (Bobbin Head) Will this boat ramp be very busy due to the Hawkesbury classic ? I have only launched it once before and I dont want to get in the way at a super busy boat ramp.

    It might well be abit busy . But then again im not sure as the comp starts Friday Arvo .

  7. I will be in it with my Uncle & a couple other guys .

    Should be a good weekend & at this point in time might be the first year in a long time that it wont rain :)

    Goodluck to everyone participating :)

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  8. Hey guys :)

    Im heading down to the local fishing tackle shop shortly to go and buy new tackle .

    I am mainly going down to buy some soft plastics & I was just wondering if anyone of the site may know which ones are working best for Flatties of late & Also what size jig head etc .

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  9. I was down there today , on a boat . Didn't catch anything . A couple of good hits . But then again we weren't really out there planning on catching any fish . We just went out there with my Dad & Uncle just taking my 2 younger sisters out for a bit of fun around lunch time to give them a little bit of a taste in fishing :)

    But absolutely love Windang . Never been let down there :) Always pull out a few decent flatties :)

    & Also congratulations on the catch mate .

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  10. And how did you go mate?

    Yeh sorry about that . The rest of the report is up now . Not to sure what happened but when I was a quarter of the way through typing the report , It posted :(

    Im Also adding a photo of the bass my mate caught up now .

    Unfortunatey we didn't have anything to measure the bass before we put him back in the water :(

  11. Went down to the Nepean River today to have a flick around with some lures for Bass with a mate .

    As I don't normally fish freshwater . This was all a very new experience for me . Im used to saltwater fishing. Get some bait on the end of the hook chucking it down & just sitting there & waiting for the fish to come to me :)

    We headed down at around 8.30 am & Started up towards the M4 bridge . With no luck after trying a number of spots .

    After that my mate suggested we head down towards the weir to give that a crack at some spots he knew down there . We went down there & Had a go at the spot he said looked like a great spot for bass & Bang ! Within 2 minutes of being in the water . He got a hit & Landed one .

    Unfortunately that was the only fish we managed to get for the day . But it was still quite enjoyable & It turned out to be a nice day once all the clouds cleared away .

    Atleast the fishing season is back & I can't wait to get into it all again :) But I think I'll stick towards Saltwater fishing as Im a bit better at that :) lol .

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  12. Hi Jawnee .

    I myself am hoping to get out to Yarra Bay with a few mates before the school hlidays finish . I have been told by a few people on my thread that Yarra Bay is good . I myself have no idea what to use here . But Im just going to use Prawns & soft Plastics at this stage until I get abit more Info .

    Goodluck :)

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  13. Thanks for all your information guys :)

    & Yeh . Im definitely up for abit of a walk from a station . Or a bus trip . It's just at the time of posting this topic all I was thinking about at the time was the Train Station Right on the water front at Brooklyn / Mooney Mooney . ( Not sure Which station it is )

    & Atleast you boys out Parramatta way have half an hour off you train ride compared to me out at Penrith , All though Catching a train really doesnt bother me . I enjoy sitting there , Relaxing , Listening to some music :)

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:

  14. Hi Everyone :)

    Headed out to Greenwell Point 2 weeks ago With my uncle ( Sorry for the late post )

    We first started off by heading outside . As we were heading out it all didn't seem to bad , The swell wasn't to big .

    We got to our destination and had decided to do a drift towards the beach . When All of a sudden in the blink of an eye , the swell had suddenly picked up . We had continued to fish for a little bit longer . When we decided it was getting abit to rough and headed back in to the estury .

    We did a few drifts in there . Just as you come back in through the bar .. & I had managed to pick up 3 nice sized flounder , 2 Undersized Bream , & a just undersized whiting :(

    All in All , It was a nice day on the water , Even tho we didnt catch anything major . It was still good to get back out there :) Havent been fishing in about 6 months :( & havent been back on the site for quite some time to :(

    But now I am back :)

    Sorry , I didn't manage to get any pics :(

    Cheers , Rhys :1fishing1:
