Wato Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Hey Guys, just wondering if it is safe to fish around Jibbon Bombora just outside Port Hacking, and if so what is the best way to go about it? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankS Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) I love fishing the bommie on a slight swell with a nor/easter breeze, drift close but not over the reef keeping the motor going in neutral or with electric handy. Throw surface poppers towards the centre of bommie and wind back through the white water. Really good for kings and millions of Sweep, which are not all that bad on the plate. I have sounded the reef many times in calmer conditions and it's a superb structure. But always keep safety at mind and don't risk it unless you are 100 % sure of what you are doing.

SaltyGreek Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Make sure you’re always watching out for the one rogue wave that could come through even on a relatively calm day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
