Botany Bay yakkas


the skipper

Recommended Posts

I go the other(western) side of molly for my yakkas, near the parked tug.

The funny thing is that usually when the sun comes up they are a lot harder to catch??

Maybe extra berley needed then??

Its a pretty reliable spot though.

yeah that is where I go all the time and we normally have a dozen in less than 30 mins but it was a real strange morning when no other boats were getting them either. My young bloke even picked up a 60cm kingie on a yakka rig , blackfish hook and the smallest piece of pillie , at that spot it was the funniest thing watching him run around the boat with the rod bent to the handle most of the time and after about what seemed like forever landed the tacker.

There were two blokes in a boat only about 30mts away who watched the whole thing broke out in applause when he reached for the net and landed it quick photo and back to fight another day.. absolute gold.

Nice, was that when there were a heap of rat kings in the bay last summer??

 

Haven't seen anyone catching any recently!

Yeah they were in plaque proportions I am pretty sure they would have thinned out alot by now with the odd one or two hanging around.

There was alot of bait fish around last summer as well I remember some days you could not get a bait passed a slimy.
