slinkymalinky Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 G'day stefan, You'll have to understand that while fishos and fishraiders can be very generous with information, you're not likely to have replies in any forum giving you specific spots to catch jewfish. I'm sure if you asked for pointers to the kinds of areas or some general areas to go you might get a better response. Fishraider encourages sharing of information and we actively police against 'misdirection' or sneakiness BUT think about how you might feel if you posted the specific details of your best spot on a public forum and next time went there to find 30 other fishos. If you're using the search feature, you won't find gps marks for jewies but I'll guarantee you'll find common areas where people go (hawkesbury, Georges River, Middle Harbour to name a few)... And Jewies aren't an armchair fish. You may need to be willing to go where they are rather than expecting to find hot spots close to home. Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hatte Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Someones keen!!!! Do your self a little favour mate and go up to the top of this forum and you will find a heading ''Jewfish Tactics Lets Share'' Grab a coldie or 6 out of the fridge and have a good read.... There is some fantastic information provided for all to see, drop a message to people that fish that area and im sure they will guide you in the right direction, or maybe tee up a fish with one of them and learn the ropes.

stefan Posted July 22, 2010 Author Share Posted July 22, 2010 cheers dudes...im finding the same people are replying to my posts no matter where i put them which is awesome and shows that you guys are the ones that really keep this forum alive. I have virtually memorised the jewfish tactics thing (to the point its printed haha) and i definitely know what to look for but its just nice to know im not fishing in a completely blind area where its been unheard of to catch jewfish. shark island always looked the go for me... gonna put some more time into it and really suss it out... thats all i needed to know. i guess to a certain extent i also like to keep my spots a secret however at the same time...to a point i find it similar to kingfish fishing... u can give someone a spot but u know its not gonna be outfished unless they fish to the same quality as you.. i.e. knowing the tides, time, pressure, moon, baits like fresh squid etc and if they are good enough to know that information and catch the squid then i have a certain level of appreciation of the effort they put in. if its a matter of room then thats a way different story. i guess thats why we give general areas... most experienced fisherman are gonna know where to look anyways thats my 2 cents but definitely not necessarily the right view.

New Signing Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Jewies are much like any other large fish, find bait and you will find them in river and estuary systems. Jewies will feed on anything from worms to salmon so matching the hatch is handy. I look for deep drop offs. I have a little tributary to the shoalhaven which has an awesome 9m drop off at the mouth of the tributary. The tributary holds heaps of mullet, blackfish, bream etc and is only about 5m wide and 2ms deep. On the run out these fish all get flushed out and tend to hold in the deep hole looking to get back into the creek. That's like ringing a dinenr bell for jews. Jew's tend to be lazy and will sit out of the current so eddies behind rock walls etc can be productive when the tide is running hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
