Hawksbury Jewfish

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

I know how to catch my squid pretty well. But i have only ever caught three smaller than legal jews on 1) Prawn, 2) White bait and 3) Chicken.

I would like to try and go to the HB this weekend of a night time to try and catch a jewfish. Not a monster record breaking one. Just a legal one will make me happy. I know Juno, the Bridges, Flint & Steel but Im looking for elsewhere are I dont have much luck at those spots.

So I was wondering if there any concise and consistant spots i can try with whole squid to catch a jewfish I can finally take home.

Also any suggestions with tides/moon/ even colour of underpants to help will be very appreciated :1prop:

Thanks for your help :)

When you find out, let me know. As far as phases go, the latest study by DPI suggests that there is no positive correllation between feeding times and moon phases (thoughI am sure that there are some hardened Jew fishermen who disagree). The big Jews do however leave their holding grounds in search of prey on dusk and return to their holes on dawn. The smaller jews were found to remain in their holes and seemed to feed on small prey such as shrimp and prawns. This may explain why you have caught smaller jews on prawns. There is nothing wrong with that.

The Hawkesbury is just one of those places where sometimes you will not even lose a bait.
