fat57 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Hey Raiders, Just looking at the tides for the next couple of days (Hawkesbury River) all I have to say is Im gona be fishing Sat,Sun night 100% High Tide Sat - 7.36pm - 1.8m Low Tide Sat - 1.38am - 0.3m High Tide Sun - 8.13pm - 1.9m Low Tide Sun - 2.32am - 0.2 High Tide Mon - 9.00pm - 2.0m Low Tide Mon - 3.28am - 0.2m Now for those who are keen for a jew or 2 i suggest you fish these nights @ the hawkesbury and i can almost gurantee you if you have the right rigs and bait you will get them, I can not wait for these tides to come in because ive been very lucky getting 10kg+ jews everytime these king tides come in.

customcasting Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 to much run not a good thing in my book.big tides give the fish more scope to feed ,this means you have to work harder ,big tide do run with a full moon and fishing can be very bad on some full moons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And dont forget your 120lb anchor and 25m of chain to hold bottom. Those tides will be TEARIN' through Goodluck Musty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishuffle Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I was planing to hit the beach this sunday morning, worried about the strong southerly and king tides! seaweeds? or stick to estuaries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamG Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I'm still searching for first large jewfish, in the hawkesbury would I be be better of near the mouth during king tides or at the bridges where the current will be greater? Previously for me it has meant catfish and twisted lines, although I've been recently reading about aerodynamic bait presentation. Thanks Graham.

zen801 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Nah mate I hate big tides and a lot of moon. Ok offshore but inshore no good in my books. Throw in wind and rain and it makes for frustrating fishing and the relax factor drops. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtosea Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 The bloke is right but the winds are shocking i can only remember the days we sat at Juno with a Southerly right in your face, the boat swinging from side to side, not even two sea anchors will help ya champ...... but to all of you who doubt the big tides or dont like them is the reason you prolly have not caught a 20kg+ Jew....

Mike Ive actually had quite a bit of luck with alot of moon at the hawkesbury, doesnt seem to deter the jews away.... Wind seems like its slowed down abit but now the rains here. Rains also good for jews to an extent if the rqin stops and the wind eases off then it should be a good night tonight will keep use updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david88 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Best time to catch jews is when you have a line in the water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
