Ray R Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 G'day Raiders, went for a quick squid hunt around lunchtime today, manage only one off the rocks at Avoca but he was a big one, aquick intro between Mercer007 and Hutcho1, then we were off to Broken bay in Hutchos Boat for a fish. We went to a nice area opposite Juno point and found a great flattie spot ,it had sandy bits a few weedy covered rocky parts and some nice drop off parts, we managed about 15 between us Hutcho scored 2 nice models and got a nice one as well , all the others were smallish and were returned. Just before dark we decided to give the jews another go so the darted over to Juno Point, found our mark and anchored up. We disected that big squid I caught earlier and dropped over a couple of rigs hoping for a jew , everything seemed okay except for the non showing of the jews, good rigs good gear perfect fresh squid . After a couple of hours we up anchored and headed to the Rip, again we sat there for another hour with nothing to show for our efforts so we headed back to the ramp . So all up it was a great arvo / evening to be out we ended up with a few nice flatties and some nice pics as well.. Cheers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Brunker Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Nice report RayR. A feed of flathead is a decent tradeoff for no Jewies. Great photo's as usual. Cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishin.kiddo Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Nice feed of flatties. Shame there was no jews to be photographed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tide'n'knots Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 nice catch ray, sounds like you were around hungry beach somewhere, not a bad area at times. Where all the lizards on SPs? bad luck about the jew, you can sometimes be vey well prepared, fish the good tides at the right time of day with fresh bait for zilch and the guy next to you catches one on a smelly pillie!! I guess thats why they are so frustrating. What colour is the river water? it was very dirty at wisemans ferry last week, just wondering if it has made its way to the mouth yet? Pete.
