Fishing stockton

[perch]

I am going to Stockton for the week and I was woundering if there are any good spots or bait and lures because I normally only get small stuff and I want to get something decent this timers

Hey Mate

I haven't fished there in a couple of months however my friends are into the Jew again on the harbour side after all the rain. Mostly between 60-90cm - the bigger ones are being hooked but not much chance of getting them up in the deep water once they run to the rocks.

You can get livies (Yakkas) from the beach side with bread berley and jigs / pilchard baits.

Is this at day or night

[RexSenior]

Both, night fishes well if you can get there on high tide but they are still around during the day, again high tide (1hr either side) is your best bet.

Great work.

What size was it? I've been fishing Newy for 25 years and only just started to get Jew!

It was only 40 cm but still fun to catch
