ianoc69 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hit Hen & Chicken for a Quick Land Based Flick earlier today (6am till 8am). Fishing was tough and I am gettiong low on Gulp Grubs / Gulp Sandworms etc. so had to go through the bag and use a few old lures that have been sitting in the bag a loooong time. Came across a Bag with 4 Green Hawgs left and sent one out which resulted in a decent Bream - see pic. Took a mark on the rod before releasing the fish and later checked the measurement - 34cm to Fork. Very solid & Fat Fish - extremelly healthy and gave a good account of itself on the symetre. Manage 1x Whiting (approx 30cm) also - but generally alot of casts for a few hits but not so many hook-ups. Good to get out and throw some SPs around.

VA911 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Great report. It has been quite quiet in the past 2 days there. I have been going for mid arvo sessions for only a few small bream and a HUGE mullet (they GO HARD). I think the very hot days had put them in deeper waters.

royboy Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Nice bream. Would've put up a pretty good fight. Your report sounds exactly like the session I had out there the other morning. First cast with a squidgie fish and I bring in a nice fat 37cm bream. But that was pretty much it until the wind picked up and I packed up and went home. There were about ten guys on the wharf fishing with bait but during the time I was down there I didn't see any of them catch anything. So didn't feel so bad not catching much. Cheers.
