charzy87 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Hey guys, My partner and I want to head out beach fishing we have gone twice but he gets the shits cause just don't seem to have any luck with bites. Really would like someone to join us to give us some tips what beachs and times etc along with what bait and rigs to use. Any help would be appreciated.

big Neil Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I can offer some advise (in case u don't get any offers to show u what to do). Most beaches will hold fish which are feeding on other fish, crustaceans, etc. Check out youTube for how to identify gutters...these are deeper water channels which will usually have fish feeding in them. Basically, the waves form as they hit shallower water beneath them so gutters are identified by the break in wave formation. Best times are early morning and late evening (darkness encourages fish to feed usually). Gang hooks with full pilchards work well but u need to berley regularly. I usually cut a pilchard into 4 then throw these into the wash where I'm fishing, fairly regularly. You really just have to plod on and u will get fish. U can also use a paternoster rig with a full pilchard on a gang hook close to the sinker and maybe have a smaller hook a bit higher up with worms, pippies, or other bait to improve ur chances. Make sure your sinker holds ur bait where you cast and you should get some fish. Fishing is a game of patience...good luck, Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4x4fisherman Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm a bit busy for the next few weeks but I'd be happy to take you guys beach fishing mid to late October and pass on what I know. Mostly I'll fish Stockton Beach so it could be a big day but it would be a good lesson as there's 30km of drivable beach. Alternately this time of year Garie Beach and Warilla beach down the Gong usually have some hungry fish. We have the odd bit of success from the sand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charzy87 Posted September 17, 2012 Author Share Posted September 17, 2012 That would be great if we could come along for a fish not worried about the road trip to the beach. Nice fish would be happy with 2 lol so be stoked with a result like yours. PM me your details can arrange something when your free.

4x4fisherman Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 The ODD bit???? thats a nice haul I would love some help to be able to show me how to catch that 'odd' fish That day was special, we kept the fish that were bleeding heavily and let everything else go. Had we kept everything it would have been 200kg of fish possibly more. We were throwing Halco's into acres of fish, there were at least 6 large schools along the beach and all you had to do was get a cast close to them. Nobody needed to be an expert that day just fit. My advantage is the 4wd, I can take friends fishing and if it gets cold they can get in the car, tired they can sleep in the car, hungry go to the fridge in the car and nobody gets sea sick. It also helps to be able to cover 35km of beach in an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charzy87 Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 So jealous yeah I don't have a 4wd only a hatch my car would probably sink in the sand lol. But that looks like a lot of fun especially with all the essentials with the car. Lots of fish for dinner which is good for you . We have to make a trip when your free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
