The best moon for jewies is usually the lead up to a new or full moon. Generally a couple of days before the actual moon are known as the best producers as they coincide with the good tides being the high early morning and night.

I'm pretty sure this is correct in that the lead up to the full moon is better for night fishing and the lead up to the new moon is better for early morning fishing. Could be the other way around.

Hi,

I caught my biggest jew at night on a new moon at Long Reef.

Personally i dont like the full moon period for fishing at all.

Two or three day period around the full moon i dont bother but either side of that is good for a go.

I recommend fishing for jewies from sunrise until about 11am or 12 in places like deep water in the Harbour or Middle Harbour.

Good Luck

mate i have asked this same question of some of the old blokes that regularly hual in big jews in the hawkesbury......and 99% of them say the moon phases are all bull :ranting2: and they dont catch less or more on any of the phases!....the tides are the more important factor!.....
