Hi Tuna1, where abouts did you see the sharks, any size to them and what kind for sharks were they. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuna1 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 We saw 1 of the sharks about 2ks of hill 60 while fishing the bottom we had a live bait out as well but it was heading north in a hurry and saw the other one while heading back into port once again heading north they were a bit far away to make out what sort of species they were and they were about 5 feet long.

Evets Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hill 60 is the headland at the northern end of Port Kembla beach. Probably not much point in posting GPS co ords as you will get a better idea of where it is by looking at a Wollongong street directory. Having said that though to fish off Hill 60 you best bet is to launch your boat at port kembla and head south for about 3 nautical miles once you leave the harbour. Just off Hill 60 is an island which will let you know you have arrived. I have seen boaties travel between the island and the land but it looks a bit dodgy to me so I always travel around the island if I want to fish on the southern side of hill 60.

Evets No problem going between the Big Island and Rocky Island - its about 2m deep. There's also a good channel between the Big Island and Marten Island.

ragdoll Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 Hi all Well manage to get out yesterday morning on the water at 5am out of Port Kembla with a 8 to 10knt wind blowing which by 6am start to die off. I started to head out to the inner wollongong reef which was quite and the same for the outer reef but i did manage to pick up 2 small 35cm snapper and a 41cm flathead between the to reefs on the drift. By 7.30 8am the water was flat enough for me to check out the wave rider which held only very small dollies and they only took bait floating down to them sat their for a while and had some fun. the water temp was around 20.2. Back at the boat ramp there was a lot of flathead at the tables getting cleaned by other fisho's sorry no pic Till next time Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
