yting Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Went out again last night in the rain. Fished the usual Wanda with presh pilchard. Oh what a surpise not even a bite, just like every other time. The Cronulla Jewfish population must giggle every time I go down the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew399 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Perhaps try some different baits... if you caught your own livies that may help, or catch your own squid etc. you stand much more of a chance with the jews on these baits. I have never had all that much luck on whole pillies either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brickman Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 hey nats,mate give the jew fishing away,try shark fishing, there are more off them if you fish for sharks you may catch a jew as by catch seriously they feed at around the same time and a big slab bait should do the trick at least you will give the rod a good bend gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spirost Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Hey Nats, I know how you feel mate. It was four years before my first jew from Wanda so just keep persevering. When you eventually crack one it will be so sweet. Keep trying a variety of baits. We tried whole squid, pilchards and fresh tailor fillets and eventually the pilchard paid off. I'm not sure if I can get down this Saturday but if I do it will be around 11:00pm. Hope to see you there. cheers mr mojo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yting Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hi nats which end of the beach were u fishing G'day Jewexpert, I was fishing at walk way no 7. I saw two blokes come down about 7ish. They had head torches and glow tips on rods. Was that you and if so did you do any better than me? I think the moon was full on Wednesday. This means no Jewies for a few days... if you believe in the moon stuff!! Cephalopod, I saw a bloke catch a soapy last full moon so thought I would try too. In saying that I've tried all kinds of moons and seen them caught at all times aswell. Just not on the end of my line. Hi Nats i feel for you mate, coz im in the same situation as you. That why the wife won't let me go anymore. . sounds familiar mate, the and I have been experiencing problems ever since I took up fishing for these myth fish (jewies).

Plus I've been waisting alot of hrs trying for squid but can't get any of these either. I'm just totally out of form with the rod. I'd even go as far as to say I'd be happy to hook a clump of weed atm. Nath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
