Fishing Report ?? Some of those fish I wouldn't be bragging about ...

That's a great range of species on pillies and prawn baits.

If you add bread, you could add a few more to the list. Mullet, blackfish and gars.

Of all of them no whiting??? Except for trumpeter???? And what about squid???

I may have caught a grass whitening at Newport years ago but if so it was very small. This is a list of fish excluding the countless crabs, octopus and squid my family and friends have caught from these locations.

It's true that some of those fish have no real value but the list is for real enthusiasts. Besides there have been plenty of trophy fish for the table. All the oddballs went back to the sea.

No luderick?????

I've seen old guys at both locations catching lots using weed but I've never really fished for them. I would like to catch some black fish one day.

the thing that got my attention is why is the trevallys skin so wrinkled? did you leave it out in the sun?

that's an impressive list, of all those I still haven't caught a blind shark or a black rock cod

The Trevally was a bit sunburnt. I forgot to bring a bucket that day. I have looked on google and upon closer inspection the Black Rock Cod was more likely to have been a Grass Rockfish. My apologies.

Holy shit, are those two spots seafood shops?

You can't get Toad Fish in a Sea Food Shop. Maybe a Japanese Restaurant.... Still these are just some of the fish I can remember off the top of my head. There could be others I forgot to mention.
