Live bait ?

[lazz120589]

Hey all . Was just wondering if anybody could help me out with some live bait spots around the hawkesbury in between brooklyn to lion island etc ... Would be greatly appreciated!!!

West Head is the place, but yakkas can be caught all around that area if the pillbox is off limits due to swell etc.

You can use a bait jig or I like to use a 8lb hang line a number 10 or 12 long shank hook with a tiny split shot sinker just to give a little weight . I use strips of pilchard as bait I got about 30 yakkas there like that on friday
