Hard Work In The Bay

[pulse]

Me and a mate went out fishing the Bay today... for not much. Molineaux returned zip so went outside the heads as the seas weren't too bad. drifted the gravel patches (or so i think they are) for one pike and one big sweep. Sea was alot larger then we though, anf got a little seasick. So went back into Molineaux... Nada. Decided to give Towra a go for some flathead as we weren't turning a reel anyways. First cast, mate bags himself a nice 56cm Flattie.... after that... Nada.

How do you fish offshore from Sydney and Botany Bay? I've never had any success outside the heads... any info much appreciated!

Personally I haven't done much outside, but it all centres around structure. Find a drop off, reef, bombie, or even a weed patch in a sandy area could hold fish.

trolling in close can be productive with either lures or live baits also anchoring in close fishing floaters in the burly stream works and casting baits into the white water. In front of the light house in 40 meters is a pretty good flatty drift
