Tiger Cam Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 G’day Raiders, Was fortunate enough to enjoy some fishing in our glorious harbour with a mate on Sunday. We tried for squid near Balmoral hoping to break my squid duck – not this time – I need to do a refresher on sqidding by Slinky…again! Anyway, off to Sow and Pigs we go where we donate a fair bit of our tackle on the structure below . We soon tired of that and moved onto Clifton Gardens. We drifted there for a couple of hours where I managed two flatties around the 42cm mark on a six inch sand eel in camo and a trevally at 33cm with a four inch turtle back worm in pumpkin seed. Even though it wasn’t his target species, Skip enticed a couple of octopus to hang onto his bait all the way to the boat. With the wind starting to pick up we headed into Middle Harbour for the last couple of hours. We saw a huge school of Tailor that we threw our plastics at with a couple hungry enough to be enticed. We saw a larger fish causing havoc amongst them and could only guess that it was a Jewie. We placed a live Tailor out the back of the boat hoping to entice Mr Jewie but I’d imagine that he’d probably had enough of a feed of choppers by this stage. We did manage a couple of decent flatties though and at one stage I got excited (hopeful) when I felt the headshakes thinking it might be a mulloway. One flatty went 53cm. caught on a 5 inch jerk shad in lime tiger and the other went 60cm caught on a 6 inch sand eel in camo which was Skip’s PB on plastic.
