Day's Fishin Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 We had the day off so decided to try our luck around the mouth of the Hawkesbury. After 1odd hour without a nudge we decided to try a spot we know for flounder. No Flounder but 14 good size Whiting. We noticed bird activity so we moved over to find a large school of salmon. We threw everything at them for 2 only. Sick of fish ignoring us we tried closer to the ramp for 1 keeper lizard, 1 x 52cm soapie. All in all not to bad, whiting fillets for dinner tonight.

Holls Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Good catch! I'm going to have to start targetting whiting with lures. What lures do you use and and what works in beach channels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W4z Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Haven't heard of so many whiting on blades, that's pretty cool. We're you in deeper water or on some flats? Looks like a great day out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a great day out We were fishing about 1 meter of water with a slit shot about 6inches above the blade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahboy Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Whiting on blades, another technique I have to try on the sand flats. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RexSenior Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Well done Mate! I'm yet to catch a whiting on any kind of lure up in Newcastle although everyone around me seems to be. Nice solid whiting too, great catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchie18092 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Great stuff on the whiting. What sort of retrieval were you using? Just a constant wind in? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Casting just past them and a slow wind through. At first we did not know what they were. Couldn't see what they were eating, must have been about 40 or so of them.
