Thanks particularly to Kelvin for sharing your sqidding secrets with all of us. I was lokking at the wharf at patomga the other day and i reckon althoughthe area is fairly heavily fished (commercially) I reckon it would hold squid particularly at night as it has about six big bright lights on it.
Any thoughts????
Davo
it does mate top squid spot
-
what did you get busted up on?
was just reading your post again and if you were fishing juno that arvo it would have been running out and dead low where did the fish run to bust you off the point wouldnt have come into the equation.
id be checking my line quality mate or even increase the line class
-
well done mate, great fish well done for heading out in these conditions you definately were rewarded.
nice size those ones taking the squid
-
i liked the first one, that last clip were he gets spooled is awesome, that fishing guru thing is all manufactured found it not funny at all
-
nice fish mate, congratulations on your first king.
samson fish are not that odd of a catch when fishing the reefs caught heaps of em if longie over the years
-
bad luck.
you know times are tuff when you give the flathead grounds a go.
we trolled old squid strips on wednesday for king after king
you should have given the harbour a go
-
i was told you dont actually fish on top of the reef, i was told you anchor up from the reef and then cast your bait just to the edge off the reef cause they dont actually hang out on top of the reef they hang out on the edge of the reef...is this true??
yes,
i agree with reely to much said.
when i said i go past and to many aren t fishing the reef correctly i meant direction and anchor not that they couldnt find it.
its almost impossible to miss it
-
mate if you sound Juno you will find next to nothing.
-
that fish on the cover was straight out of haymarket though.
if you don t believe me ask him

G'day Luringbream
In my humble opinion I would suggest that a big part of jewie fishing is discovering the spots and how to fish them for yourself in your style and with your gear.
Juno and Flint are both excellent spots but I have seen hundreds pull up to Juno and have no idea, thousands pull up to Flint and have even less of an idea.
I would suggest to you to go and pull up near Juno or Flint and sit and watch at a distance what the diehard Jewfishos do. They have spent long long hours perfecting their different methods.
It will take a lot of time and effort to get the nack of it but once you have learned the how-tos you will need to put in the time... a lot of it. I know blokes who fish for 4 days at a time and may well go without a decent bite. The same blokes will tell you they have got a big fish in 10 to 20 minutes.
Think like a Jewie - where and when would you go for a feed? Watch the flow of the water.
I would say find yourself a spot in the system and fish it on the run in and the run out. Learn it. Fish it in different winds and at different phases of the moon. Keep a journal of what happens and what you have learned. Be aware that it is a very dynamic environment and there is something on the change all the time. Get really good at the one spot and then move on to the others. There are fish everwhere and they move aroud too!
I will say to you -
to see that rod really buckle hard and that reel rip scream as you get stripped of 50 to 150m of line and you can do jack about it is a really fantastic experience, to feel the massive head shakes and then hopefully to stop the run before somethng gives or breaks is a great feeling. If you are lucky enough to still have the fish on and turn it you will know that every minute you have spent fishing for them has been well well worth it. When you see the big bronze shape appear near the boat your heart will be thudding in your chest and if, and only if, you don't stuff the gaffing and you manage to boat one of these great fish, I bet you will be shaking like a leaf.
- one of the best fishing feelings you will ever get.
Have a good go mate and enjoy it! You may just turn into one of those secretive bunch!!!
cheers

James There was never any intension to be mis leading , simply to pass on my experience in that area.
We are moving so may I suggest we leavt it at that
Geoff
not a problem mate.
take it easy.
go the aussies in the ashes about to bowl first ball
-
it was released but didnt no what to do with the tag, so didnt take to much notice of it.
will no better in the future
-
i caught a king yesterday with a tag in the side of him.
the tag had a fare bit of growth on it so didnt really see anything besides a few letters and numbers.
what should be done in the future in case of a similar catch
cheers James
-
James , am I missing something here. Perhaps you could let me in on the funny part
Tks
Geoff
the way you were misleadig him.
i thought it was funny
-
Both are best fished on the run out or bottom of the tide.
At Juno anchor just inside the Eastern side of the point then cast out into the water flowing around point allowing the bait to drift back around into the calmer water provided by the headland
F & S The reef or drop off runs North / South. Anchor on top & drift back until you are a few meters from the cliff edge , tie off.
The fish lay in close to the rock face & as with Juno , to be out of the tide flow & waiting for food to come over the top
Forget F & S on the incoming tide & Juno is generally very quiet

So true...unlike kingie fishermen!!! We WANT to share our secrets but those jewy guys are something else. All you notice are some large fish scales at the ramp! Cheers KElvin
what do you want to know?

Could be keen subject to $$$
Im keen if you pay

I have heard about a new SEWER outlet to be built near the road bridge. Is this true? ...boy this will stuff up EVERYTHING. Perhaps there will be more Sh!t loving fish but the Hawkesbury is bad enough without this! CHeers Kelvin
nah they are doing some work on the raw waste bit i m sure they are only upgrading. there is no way they would dump shit that far up a river.
on the bright side it couldnt get as bad as that toxic dump we both fished today.
how did you end up going kelvin?
Didn't today prove something today James other than me being the superior fisherman.
it did prove something Anthony the man with the bomb out fishes the man with a sinker, only just.

yeah i thought so.
i didnt think there was any point to downrigg when being stationary, suspending your bait with a snapper lead would have done the same thing,
thanks James
