Dee Why beach last night

Made the trek to the pole on Dee Why beach last night, fished from 6:00pm to 10:30 (High tide was 8:40ish) got 3 small sand crabs which were demolishing pilchards as usual.

Still cant crack beach fishing. I spoke to a surfer on the way in who told me there were no good gutters at the moment they had all been washed flat. Is this due to the lower high tides?

Tried fresh squid, pillies and prawns.

Earlier this week, I hit Dee Why for a donut too - actually, on the last cast I did get bitten off by a tailor through 35lb trace - but otherwise just a load of crabs eating the bait. V quiet all up. I used a poddy mullet and fresh squid and two snelled size 5 circle hooks. Maybe size 3 gang hooks would have been the ticket.

The beach will pick up as the water warms. Mullet have just started showing up in the harbour, and that's always a good sign for better fishing in the rips at the beach.

Its not just DY - Maroubra has drawn blanks for me 3 times in the last 2 weeks, hitting perfect tide times and only crabs are coming in...
