pkingduck Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Hi everyone, I took the kayak out in Pittwater this morning to see if I could find any kingies. It looked pretty dead (no squid, no yakkas, no surface action and no kingies) but I did pick up a 72cm jewie at Lovett Bay while flicking plastics around the moorings. I got the fish in 11.3m of water near the bottom on a 7inch jerk shad gulp on a 1/2 ounch 4/0 jighead under one of those massive yachts. Total fluke, but I have been out that many times for jewfish for nothing, I reckon I was due.. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjc123 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) Great fish mate Not many people fish for jews in pittwater but there's some crackers if you know where to look. A mate caught a 13kg in Feb this year at Stokes Pt on a live squid. Yakkas and tailor would work as well i think. Even sweeter to get it on SP though! Nice Job!
