My husband & I are off to Treachery this Saturday and we are pretty ordinary fisherpeople! Can anyone tell us what is biting?

No worries.

Beach Fishing - Jewfish, Salmon Tailor and Sharks (Grey Nurse and Bronze Whalers). Just use a single/double hook rig with squid or pillies to catch the salmon and tailor, and then use them as livies - heavier gear required once again.

Treachery Point - hard to get to, but good for Kings/Cobia/Tuna if very lucky) - if they're around. Live baits under floats - but you'll need some heavy heavy gear. Kings + Rocks= Bust-Offs + Disappointment + Lost Gear. 60-80lb leaders are a must

The water should be up around the 20 degree mark, so there'll definitely be more bait fish and activity than 2 months ago when I was last there.

Word of warning - treachery is very very basic. you've got to take bait and fresh water.

The 8 story high dune that has to be scaled before you reach the beach will certainly let you kow you;re alive!

Have a great trip!
