Roseville-middle Harbour

[glennmreid]

Went back to my usual spot today for a fish. My spot didn't disappoint. After a slow start, ended up catching 5 bream, 3 mullet and 2 great flatties. The flatties were 52cm & 57cm. Plenty of solid bites after the turn of the tide. Hooked and lost a decent sized fish. Caught the flatties on ganged pilchards.Just as well I was using ganged hooks, the leader was light and would've had no chance against those flattie teeth. Took home the 2 flatties, and 2 mullet which will be great for those Roseville jews.

Well done for a good outing Chopper 75.

I had lunch to the north of the Roseville bridge during the week and watched from the car as something of good size pushed its bow-wave up and down real close to the edge, passed the pull-over where the garbage bins are. Couldn't make out what species it was but there was some size in the wave so it got me excited.Plenty of bream cruising that area also. Its one place I hope to fish sometime from the yak

cheers

Look forward to seeing what you rustle up using those mullet!

Bread on a size 10 hook rig. I basically used the same set up that I use for blackfish. A sliding float rig with 3 small split shot sinkers and a size 10 hook. So much mullet around at the moment. Boy, do they like to give a good fight.

That's a great bag of fish, good to see there are still plenty of fish up that way at the moment. They're 2 real good size flatties as well!

Hi Glenn,

Good to meet you yesterday. My lures went untouched but it was a nice session right on dusk. Worth persevering with I reckon.

Cheers

It was good to meet you too Humesy. went back to that spot today. About to put up another post. I reckon the lures would be good, particularly dawn or dusk.
