PeterRose Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Hi everyone I am new to this forum and was hoping for a bit of advice. I've chartered a cabin cruiser for the last week of August with my 17 year old son. We are starting and ending at Brooklyn and I was hoping for some advice of what to expect/target. I am originally from South Africa where I used to do a lot of fly fishing, both fresh and salt but I have not really had much experience in Australia other than some deep sea reef fishing. Any advice would be much appreciated. Regards Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratchie Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Hi peter and welcome to the forum. If you use the search function at the top right of this site it will help you find reports and other information with regards to the hawkesbury. That area during winter is a hard place to fish especially for the first time. But a beautiful place to explore. Have a great weekend and good luck! Cheers scratchie!!!

Twinfisher 4.9 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Hi and welcome Peter, agree with Scratchie, the Hawkesbury can be tough at the best of times. Not sure how far you can take your boat but if allowed you may have a good chance of salmon around Broken Bay / Lion Island and if into fly fishing they would be a good target, great sport. They tend not to venture too far down the river however. Wish you good luck and a great time with your son. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
