RichieR Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Made it down to Cronulla beach at about 2pm, plan was to fish the run in to high tide near the surf club, got there and the wind was about 50km/h! Looked along towards South Cronulla and the waves looked much less mental - so back in the car and headed south. Got on the sand and rigged up and first cast caught a nice 36cm flathead. Caught another 3 throw back flathead and a little 12cm bream - then I caught my new PB bream! Dragged him in about 6:30 pm and then nothing until 10pm, right on the turn of the tide I hooked a baby sting ray - My first landed sting ray! Quick snap and back in. Apart from the crazy wind up Wanda beach end it was an awesome night Edited May 4, 2013 by RichieR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbdshroom Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Nice catches. I'm no expert but that doesn't look like a bream to me, but a tarwhine. Can someone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slam354 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Definitely a Tarwhine better eating than bream. What bait were you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenno64 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Great tarwhine! I was down there this arvo and fishing with worms....got bricked a couple of times around the reef by what felt like a tarwhine and picked up a nice pig, whiting and a few bream off the beach.
