Wish me luck! Conditions are looking great mate as long as the wind behaves its self. Water may be a little discoloured up there still but dont see why the fishing shouldnt be good. Goodluck!

Hey JohnV, i was tempted to drive up to spencer but was wwith the family so couldnt really leave 'em there... didnt know u could catch jewies LB @ Spencer? is that from the boat ramp? or the wharf?

steve_g Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Hi Guys, I will be heading with the family during xmas over to wisemans ferry/spencer area and was wondering which area to fish.. would be great if you could help as i have no clue with the hawksbury system... i generally fish botany bay during summer.. if there are any other raiders that could help, that would be awesome.. we will be fishing with a boat and looking to target jewfish, bream, flathead.. Thanks guys, Stevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, Stevo Stevo, I fish Wisemans fairly often, as I have a caravan there, but I am yet to nail it! I was up there three weekends ago (great weather ) and the water surface temp was 23-24 degrees but it was extremely fresh (I know, I swallowed enough of it with my attempts to get up on one ski!). I didn't stray to far from the van park as it was a boy's weekend and I had to be sociable... ( ). No jew, bream or flathead - I thought I could pull a bass or EP but no luck. When it's that fresh, I tend to do better on the saltwater species further downstream around the Laughtondale area but that has not been doing too well lately either. I haven't tried down as far as Spencer yet but I intend to when I fit another fuel tank. Good luck. Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Admin wow..i didnt know that either..i went carp fishing one time at the local lakes and this asian gentleman approached me and offered $20 for a 5kg + carp i caught, i didnt take the money or gave him the fish as i didnt want him to get poisoned (given the amount of pollution in that lake!) but thought may be i can catch carp from penrith and sell them to these people (why not, to pay off my boat loan LOL)..is that deemed to be illegal as well?..even though its carp and its a pest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
