Mick13 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I have been out to maroubra beach fishing a few times just before high tide and still haven't managed to catch anything. I'm just wondering if anyone has fished that beach lately and caught anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRED-ATOR Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 fish slab baits for jewfish and banjos. I fish it quite often and do well. if you get there in the arvo just ask the surfers where the gutters are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieR Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Sorry to hijack thread, but I have been fishing at Maroubra a few times lately too to learn beach fishing - bought a new rod and everything - problem is I cant find the gutters.Is there anywhere where there are commonly gutters ? I have watched countless youtube videos on finding gutters etc but when I get to the beach and have a look - I still cant identify them! I've read they are common near the "corners" or rocky headlands of the beach - is that true or not always ?I just want to catch bream / tailor / flathead / etc Also - being new to beach fishing - how do you keep a prawn on the hook so it wont wash off in the surf!? Again .. sorry for the hijack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SargeRX8 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Flathead are all over the sand flats at beaches you don't need a gutter. I usually I'd the gutter as the more gentle looking waters between all the waves and stuff. As suggested you should ask surfers or life guards to point them out. A gutter provides an effortless way for surfers to get behind the waves. If you aren't fishing gutters you reduce success a fair bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
