Scratchie Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) Awesome. I always leave the boat at home when we go up there thinking the bay only produced dolphins !Mate there is more fish in the bay than you think!If you bring the boat let me know and I'll point you in the right direction.

Scratchie Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Excellent stuff Scratchie!! That sure is a nice fish. Hope the boys enjoyed the feed. Well done and keep up the top work. Ian Mate, they enjoyed it. I've already eaten two this week! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaki10 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Hi all, Went out today with fellow raider diesel on our end of year bash with our local fishing club. I managed to talk them into having at the beautiful port stephens. After a few quiet ales the night before, the plan was hatched and we stuck to our guns. First of all we drifted Taylor's beach for about 10 whiting in the live tank, of which diesel contributed most. Then it was time to hit Jew spot!!! Out went the livies and we both threw a few SP's for no result. Was a gorgeous morning on the water and without much action happening it was time for a little siesta, as the livies were still out. Then just as I was comfortable zzzzzzzz. I jumped up, grabbed the rod and strike. I knew what it was, it was just a question of how big??? After a great little fight and some good team work, on board comes this fine specimen! image.jpg image.jpg Due to a bit of damage sustained during the fight, it had to come back and feed the boys! It measured 78cm and 4.7kg and a great result for team scratchie. There's a few about ATM so get out there if can! Cheers scratchie!!! Nice catch! Do you live up in Port Stephens? The reason I am asking is because I am coming up there next week for a short break and I wanted to know if there are any good land based spots I could go score me a jewfish at night or even if I hire a boat at the mariner? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, Zac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also leaves an excuse for you to come back up soon! Cheers champ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No prob luc, I thought the boys already ate it but diesel must have hidden it and took it home! Agree, fresh Jew is unreal. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have guided a few raiders around the bay but for some reason the good fish always end up on my line? They mustn't like tourists! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
