THE BREAM REAPER Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 hey fellow raiders, this is my first post, not sure if i am in the right section....but anyway, i have been planning on chasing whiting in Narrabeen lagoon this upcoming summer (BRING ON SUMMER!!!) and i heard live nippers is prime bait for these fish. is there any good spots on the lagoon where i can get some nippers? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Cheers, THE BREAM REAPER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regan Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 hey mate, welcome to the forum, yeah this is in the right section. i cant really help you with nippers for your location but i use them and they are an awesome whiting, bream and flattie bait, especially live. when i rig them up i pin them through the tail as then they will sit freely in the water and i heard that they also snap their claw when rigged throught the tail which attracts fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARC H Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 look around on sandflats you should see their holes on top of of a mound of dark silty sand there should be a few holes around each other let us know if you find them they are an awesome lightly weighted bait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wellzy94 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 A heads up when you're pumping nippers - Don't just pump once at a set of holes, and move on. Pump 2-3 times, and if you get any nippers, pump that same spot a few more times. The most success I've ever had pumping nippers is 6-7 times in the one hole, and the last pump (Real deep in the sand, with a partially collapsed tunnel network they use to travel below sand) I bucketed 12 nippers on the final pump alone. P.S. Welcome to Fishraider! Cheers, Wellzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
