Peter.t.j Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 G'day raiders, Fished berowra waters yesterday hitting the water at 6.15am. First spot caught 3 bream to 32cm in an hour and a half and lost 2 squid. Moved and caught another bream. Moved again and caught 38cm flattie and a flounder. Lost what I thought was a big bream near the end of the day. All up 6 fish. Happy with the result as the water was pretty clear. Can't wait until we get decent rain!!

rossco_g Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Bream are plentiful in Berowra at the moment....And all the spring spawn have hit legal size so it's great action especially for the kids. I Fish bread baits and burley heavily with stale bread from the local bakery. unweighted hooks are the only way as they spook easily and once they go off the bite change locations. Flathead and flounder have been few and far between but fish the creeks like calabash and joe crafts for best results, plastics have been quite with local prawns fishing best. Few school jews round at the moment, small squid and prawns are working for them. and plenty of live bait to be caught with bigger jews falling for herring and tailor. Again fished on the smallest amount of weight possible, depending on the current. I like to use a running hook rig so the bait has room to move around. Like i've said in my other post sharks are taking most of my live baits lately, so carry pliers for hook removal. And fishing after dark is only turning up Pike eel so don't waste your time. R.

Cheers Shaun No, near the Calabash end of Berowra. Also we haven't seen many flathead this year either in Berowra and ever since the start of the drought fishing has been much harder.

sk. Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Id say live nippers would be just as good. I normally use crabs at berowra cause they are alot easier to catch, and to get nippers their you have to travel a fair distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
