sam bros Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Headed off to central coast the other day armed with some pillies and squid. Was fishing with a mate who had never been beach fishing, so the goal was for him to catch a fish. Conditions were forecasted to be pretty ideal for fishing. Headed to my usual beach, got there at 7pm. Managed to find a gutter. Rigged up and casted out. Conditions were not the best here with a lot of side current, making it impossible to hold the bait. After about 20 mins and we decided to move to a more sheltered beach about 15 mins away. Got there and conditions were alot better here. Casted out and after 5 mins, hooked up but the fish spat the hooks. Rebaited and almost instantly hooked up, gave the rod to my mate to fight the fish. We were using relatively light line and after a 10 min battle we got it to on the beach. His first aussie salmon going 65cm Ended up landing a few more salmon and one tailor. Pillies barely got touched and most of the fish were caught on squid strips. Was going to throw out a slab bait for a jewie but I didnt bring my jewie gear with me. All the fish were released except for one salmon which was kept for a feed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
