saintdylan Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hi guys up in port for the next ten days looking for any advice on what's biting and where. Looking to fish a bit inside with the girls and my young nieces and nephews and also offshore for kings, snapper etc. Fished a lot up here for marlin but not much for other species. Any advice would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchie Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Nice early morning session scratchie Lol....... I woke up to sound of a rod peeling off in my sleep! Took that as a sign. First cast sambo? Had to work a little harder for the king and they were gone as soon as the boat traffic started!

Message me when it's closer to the time you are up here. The fishing changes around that time so that way my info is more current and relevant. Cheers scratchie!!!

Scratchie Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Raiders, There are many raiders that holiday up here at port stephens and are looking for information. Please feel free to ask me any questions you wish regarding locations, rigs, species etc. and I will give you all the current info I can. I have placed all gps marks for the area, in the gps section. These are the marks I use! You never know I might catch up for a fish or you might see me on the water sometime! Look for a Haines hunter named scratchie! But also remember that it takes time to provide feedback and reply to many pm's, so the courtesy of thank you, goes a long way! Cheers scratchie!!!

Sigma Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hi Scratchie. Could you help out a poor old sod who has been up there 1for the last 7 years around Xmas and never caught anything but flatties. Would love some GPS marks for those famous kingies.....thinking of heading up there around mid-late January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratchie Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 When are you opening your tackle shop Scratchie? Lol Nah I'm not that good! Just had the privilege to work these waterways for about 15years and have lived here for the last 2 1/2 years. All my spare time is divided between the kids and fishing and where possible combine the two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchie Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Scratchie - just start a charter business Not after today's effort. Couldn't catch a cold in the arctic! But I did lead a fellow raider out and he got a 2-3kg snapper on his boat! So many bait fish about and no pelagics! I was very disappointed.
