I fished the local rocks for a couple of hrs yday on the rising tide middle of day  bagged out in 2hrs   2 double headers made it interesting washing em up    all caught on cabbage   surprisingly  all fish had milt or roe in them  the luderick are still around in good numbers  i broke two fish off and pulled the hook on a few but plenty there   no fotos  this time round  left fone in car  then iced after cleaning till weighin this arvo     tight lines everyone

There’s plenty around at the moment & as you said roed & milt, what poundage leader & hook size are you using as there’s been some big ones amongst them

last weekend watched a couple of locals at it & one of the guys let me use his setup while cleaning the catch I managed 3 at 36 38 & a 44, haven’t targeted them since a young block, ended up buying myself a 10ft6 Wilson blackfish rod today

interesting that your using a two hook setup off the stones

Great report. Well done.

Nice bag of fish.

I remember as a kid fishing in Lake Illawarra near the entrance, the blackfish would head in, ready for breeding, and they would only take squirt worms, not weed at this time of year. Big bronzies some of them.

Great to hear you are getting among them.

Estuary is patchy at the moment. Perhaps I should look at the stones.

Thanks for the report.
