Went out to port hacking fad Monday got about 20 dollies, only 1 legal 70cms and all the rest were 55s to 59cms. Then headed back to find some kings, got hammered by that southerly and only managed a 56cm rat. Finished the day with 3 nice squid for a feed. Taking the misses out tomorrow, hopefully to find some decent kings. Cheers Mike

Heard this morning, that one boat out of Batemans Bay yesterday raised 5 marlin and tagged two. Some mates out today, a couple of fish raised didn't hear the result as yet. Bait is looking good off Batemans Bay shouild be a good week.

Big follower of the site for a while now and have learnt a heap from everyone here so thank you to everyone.

Now to the topic at hand, a mate fished wide of Batemans Bay today after hearing of the fishing down there yesterday and went 3-2-1.

They had a double hookup of striped marlin. They had a big stripe smashing their teaser and following their corner and rigger skirts for a while so they chose to zig zag to entice it to bite and off went the shotgun with another smaller stripe. At the same time the big stripe hit one of the riggers and throw the hooks a short time later but 1 hr 40 mins later they had an 83 kg stripe boat side on 10 kg, by happy crew. They fished just over shelf as water was green inside shelf. Apparently plenty of bait around and fish were found near some feeding seals.

Hope that helps

I went out with a mate in a tinny on port kembla harbour on the day after boxing day..... We caught 8 rats around 55-58 cms, inbetween us whilst drifting the breakwall on a run out tide, Plus a legal flatly, trevally and a red rock cod. Plenty of bust offs too.
