Jew Stalker Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Those pesky jackets are everywhere. I think your best bet would be to either go wide for ooglies or in the estuary for some flatties and bream. Luc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratchie Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Or up port stephens! We don't seem to have that much problem with them here! Cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oziodin Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Next time go to Davidson park . get some live bait At Balmoral headland or where the Largde Crane on Starboard side after Spit marina about 50-100 out on 19meters of water ancor up with (burley , bread and a tin of pilchard Cat food mixed up in a bucket )and head out near vicinity of the Gap try down rigging for Kingies or just Live Baiting and the artificial reef also long reef isn't to far up from the heads ,if the weather goes pear-shaped try inside very light gear for bream/flatties .there is plenty of spot in and around middle harbour / spit bridge. I find the Hawkesbury is very much hit and miss at the best of times and you really have to work hard to get some results there. Cheers Oziodin Seemingly there options out of the harbour with out having to travel to far ( its my Opinion only) Edited March 5, 2014 by oziodin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulk001 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 There were plenty of Dollies out there on Sunday. They were hitting everything - livies, pillies, even jigged up a few of them. Try targeting them if you're going out again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbf1 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I got hammered by these pests in 2 meters of water just off the golf course at palm beach on Saturday. I have not seen them there before in over 20 years of fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameldownunder Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Thanks guys for the info, I'll take my son and some light gear, and go for a bit of a clean up. Maybe afterwards it won't be that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
