crashlee Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Hi Raiders Can I get some suggestions where I can take my 17yo non-fishing son tent camping and fishing for a couple of days with no boat. I live in sydney don't want a long drive. Prefer light soft plastic fishing. Thanks in advance Crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evets Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Anywhere between Nowra and Jervis Bay would be ideal. Id stay at Huskisson or Greenpatch in the JB national park. Plenty of fishing/non fishing things to do if you went down there. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hottyscotty Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 The Basin, its along Pittwater. Only annoying thing is, you'll need to lug all your gear via the ferry as theres no direct road access. The ferry departs from palm beach. You can drive but its a long walk. You can flick plastics along the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewgaffer Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Hi Crashlee, I did a fair amount of camping and fishing with my sons in the seventies and eighties and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Hawkesbury river section anywhere along the ferry road between Wiseman's and Gunderman which is an easy place to fish and drive home from especially at holiday time i.e you only have to go back on the ferry and drive along Baulkam Hills Road and head home from there... You can either set up at the waters edge and keep moving along Wiseman's ferry road if necessary or drive in behind the restaurant shop at Gunderman and talk to the owner and if you decide to pitch a tent there for convenience, you'll find quite a few good landbased spots where you should be able to catch bait, jewfish, bream and flathead. Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashlee Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 Thanks for all your suggestions. Huskinson is front running at the moment. I hope I can give you a fishing report soon. Cheers Crash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Spanner Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Ulladulla, Lake Conjola, Tabourie are nice and there are heaps of accomodation/camping options, fishing, snorkelling and surf options if your son surfs or swims. You're looking at about 2 and a half hours from your place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anroco Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 You could even try Lake Macquarie CHeeRS Antun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealthmission Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Anywhere on the Central Coast is nice... lots of fishing opportunities, nice waterways, beaches, beer is cold and presents perfect father son bonding opportunities! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austwave Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 I know this is a late reply but Lake Lyell is not that far and a good (Cool)Camp and fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
