Terrigal kayaking

Recommended Posts

hey guys,

headed out to terrigal twice over the last week.

firstly i went out about 1km off terrigal armed with pillies and bottle squid.

started paddling out and trolled the reef on the way out for a couple of hits but no hook ups. i started my drift about 500m off the skillion only for a rock cod and a sergent baker. went out a bit further and started another drift. started getting more sergent baker so headed in closer to the red bouy. i then started getting lots of smaller flatties around the 20cm mark and 1 flounder. the flatties were chomping down the pillies so i thought i would have a bit of fun with them. i tied on a 20g microjig on light gear and got some more flatties ranging from 20-40cm.

after a bit i headed over to the reef to troll my x-rap and i got 1 sergent baker and 1 tailor.

 

second day i headed back out with same gear, the swell slightly bigger and the wind a fair bit stronder.

started a drift and caught a wrasse, 1 sergent baker and 2 small snapper.

saw a couple of whales further out and then headed back in. trolled the reef again and got 2 pike and 1 sergentbaker

headed right into the haven to go for some squid and second cast i was onto a small squid. 1 cast later in the exact same spot i was onto another slightly bigger. about 30mins later i caught another squid this one a lot bigger and pulling drag, it measured 40cm to the head(not including tentacles) another cast in the same spot and i was on again to a smaller one.

headed in for lunch and called it a day.

sorry no pics right now, will upload some later

Nice report mate, might have to come with you for a few drifts over summer, too cautious to head out there alone without a rudder or foot pedals, 

Some nice pics too ?

thanks mate

maybe we could go out together sometime :thumbup:

Well done can you tell me if your squid spots are the same year round or different in winter?

 

Ive found the haven in winter has less squid but way bigger, 

Summer you could catch over a hundred in there but they would all fit in the palm of your hand.

Summer I use em whole for bait, winter a feed and the heads for bait ?
