Oldfella Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Hey Fellas!! Remember Coal and Candle Creek is not the only place in the Pittwater system that carries hair tail There is a deep hole out from the Basin that used to have heaps. Should be able to pick it up easily on a sounder. Also the old torpedo targets used to be a great spot. Rough bearings: Go to the front of the naval building at Taylors Point. Move out about in the old scale 100 yards. That is about where the torpedo tube building used to be. Then go straight up the Bay towards lion Island. The targets used to be at 1000' 2000 and 3000 yards respectively. First target no good, second target a patchy spot but the third target was a real hotspot for anything. Hair tail, jewies, kingies, not bad sized reddies you name it. Should be easy to pick up on a sounder as the Navy left a heap of cables etc on the bottom. Give it a go you might be pleasantly surprised. Cheers. Roger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozMoses Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Took the six yr old boat camping and hairtail fishing for both of our first times on 25th August, 2017. Tried Jeruselum Bay for about 2 hours for donuts, then moved to Waratah Bay and tied up to a public mooring for the night. Was fishing whole pillies on ganged hooks and cubing pillies as well - 1" every minute or so. Got a HT around 1 metre at midnight ... STOKED! Lost another around 1:30am near the boat, way bigger. Went to sleep with a live yakka on the 15kg gear, didn't hear a thing but woke to find the 100lb trace shredded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
