jtp Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Hi all, A bit of a delayed post. Went for a kayak session in the George's River on Labour day using soft plastics on the rising tide in the lugarno and menai area. Started in the morning at around 8am and finished fishing by 12pm. Was using a clear prawn squidgy and 2.5 watermelon zman grub. Caught 3 bream ranging from 27 - 34cm, 1 flathead at 42cm and a mulloway at 63cm. The mulloway was caught on the prawn squidgy 2 hours before high tide on a steep drop-off. Caught the others on the zman grub. Using 6lb braid to 8lb leader. Surprisingly the 34cm bream had more fight then the mulloway which was almost dead weight. Released all fish except 1 bream and the flathead which was kept for the table. The mulloway are out there if anyone is keen to give them a go. Hopefully next time they are a bit bigger!! Cheers Joe 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ribs Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Nice fish bud, the GR will fish well this season. This rain will flush some bigger Jews / flatys out of there comfort zone, they love to hunt in the brown water especially near the bridges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had some success around both como and captain cook bridge using bait from the boat. Yet to get one above a metre though. Do you happen to know if any of size have been caught lately?
