andrew399 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 I am after somewhere I can easily position my boat in to get yakas, its 30ft and not the most manouverable boat in the world and when im by myself its a bit of a pain to get in real close to balmoral wharf or clifton etc. How does the island at balmoral go after a bit of berley? Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbielites Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Balmoral Island is a top spot. I usually pull up around here. Cheers.Robbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penguin Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Top yakka spot and also I have got the odd King, Bream, Long Tom and tailor here. just watch out for the swimmers who come right past your boat and lines. penguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caranx Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 just watch out for the swimmers who come right past your boat and lines. penguin Plenty of tuna oil in your burley trail fixes that up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayKay Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Just a question guys. Is that also a good spot for squid? or another spot around balmoral? JayKay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewgaffer Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Caranx, sounds like a rather polite get square. More tuna oil in the burley mix is not the best shampoo for swimmers that swim right out around your lines....and it's no Gucci or Calvin Kline body cologne on the Saturday night dance floor, that's for sure. jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laredo Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 can be pretty tricky for yakkas there Its snag central so be careful with your anchor there are better spots nearby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbielites Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 (edited) Dicko, Ya would have to be a goose to lose an anchor at Balmoral island All approaches are sand until you get to about 5m of water over the weed beds where it turns into... The island Have never met a man that caught a squid there Robbie.. Edited September 28, 2007 by Robbielites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lighthouse2k Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 For the record I have caught 1 sqid there! Sometimes you need a lot of burley to get them up, you may have to wait 10 minutes or more as well but most of the time you should have some luck.
