TheSillySalmon Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Hey to all, Understandbly I know us fishos (don’t know if qualify as a fisho yet as I’m still a newbie ?♂️?♂️) can be reluctant to share spots, but I’ll have a crack anyways. Anyone know any beaches around Sydney which are firing with salmon atm. ?? Caught my first one the other night and I’m hooked , but looking for a new spot.

TheSillySalmon Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) Thanks hateanchors for the reply, What’s the action like around cobblers on the low tide for your Pelagics like salmon. (Due to upcoming work constraints might only be able to fish it at night when there happens to be a low tide ) Edited July 29, 2018 by TheSillySalmon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolongeramember Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I don’t know about night. I’ve only seen it firing at day time lately 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam bros Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 A lot of the central coast beaches are fishing pretty well for salmon at the moment. Fish the high tide which coincides with a sunset or sunrise, use some ganged pillies 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volitan Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I was doing good on the kahawai (Aus salmon) on Macmasters Beach on the southern end of the Central Coast until about 10 days ago, nothing since in maybe 3 or 4 trips. I have to say - asking where the kahawai (salmon) are is a natural way to approach fishing, but it’s not necessarily the best way to find them. The majority of the winter kahawai are migratory, and like most migratory animals they travel in waves. A wave is likely to be around a beach for a few days, to maybe a week or two. Also, at this time of year they’re mostly hunting either sandy sprats or Ogilvys hardyheads off the beaches, which behave much the same, further reinforcing their transience. That’s why, when someone tells you where the kahawai are, and you follow it up, by the time you get there they have most likely moved on. You end up being told ‘you should have been here yesterday’ - how often have you heard that. So you are going to catch kahawai where you find them. Find a good beach, hit it in the evening every few days, sooner or later they will turn up. FWIW, I was finding most of my kahawai were taken on surf poppers with a half pilchard on the lower dropper. Probably 2 fish on the popper for every one on the pilchard. Not always like that, but worth considering. Also, a sort of a silver lining, once the kahawai moved on the tailor moved in. Smaller, but more edible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard some really good things about Garie , when it’s firing it’s meant to be a great spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
