Port Hacking 1st April

Hi

Went out and fished the Port on fri targeting bream and whiting.

After a very slow start ( 3hrs 5 locations for 2 bream) I decided I should have tried Botany bay, too late now.

Headed down near Bundena to another spot and finally found the fish.

For 2 hours it was fish after fish bream and trevally from just under legal to 38cm, All on 1 or 2 kg outfits fishing unweighted baits in just over a metre of water. A large bango ray on the 1 kg rod had me thinking big flatie until I got to see it.

Then went back up to lilli pilli flats but could only raise smaller whiting.

Kept 6 bream and a trevally for a meal and released heaps.

While I was cleaning the fish at home later the phone rang and my son was reporting in he had caught

a 98cm flatie I'll post a photo when he gets back.

Sons had gone to Greenwell pt for a end of cricket season weekend away. My older son got down there found the accomodation and put his boat in at 4pm found his brother on the river and bludged a couple of live podies. second cast into the flatie hole he was on and 40 min later laded the fish on his 2 kg outfit.

Back at the ramp at 5:30 not a bad 1 & 1/2.
