PPSGT Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hi Raiders, Sitting in the office watching lavender bay The seagulls have been working all day over really big splashes with fish leaving the water I'd say they are either really big tailor or small kings - what ever it is they are feeding on sprats as they seagulls are getting a feed everytime they surface I've seen the sprats a few times along the rockwalls in schools of about 500 , they are yakka coloured but long and thin And all right in the middle of the no fish zone Them fish is smart!

youngfish Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 yeah the whole harbour is full to the brim of them i went for a fish on my tinny yesterday and they were all the way down to iron cove and all the way back to mort bay, there are small to medium kings and the odd bonnie but mostly tailor, good fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginko Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Just walked past the very northern edge of Lavender Bay on the way to/from lunch - on a new moon's ebb tide (halfway out) and a big northerly blowing ahead of a looming southern change. On the way over to lunch, I counted 4 blackfish, 2 mullet, 4 garfish and loads of bream, all in the space of about 30meters of each other. On the way back, same count, and then was surprised by a pack of about 30 decent-sized kingies, coming in right up to the breakwall beside the main water taxi wharf - the water was easily less than a meter deep. They'd chased in some baitfish but lost them due the shallow water becoming filled with silt, but I could see the kingies clear as day. They circled around the wharves for about 5 mintues before heading back out to deeper water. Where was my rod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebottle18 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Perhaps you could pack one of those 3/4 piece rods that come with a lunch box. They look very smart and impressive. No one would be the wiser. JUST THINKING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
