Gengar Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hi Raiders Hope u had a great Christmas! Going down to Batesman Bay in Jan with the family and trying to do some fishing but really want to catch my first beachworm. I know how its done and saw some really tiny ones on narrabean but too small to nab. Any beaches recommend in the Batesman Bay area that I can find some beachworms or even along the way from Sydney to Batesman Bay? If not, any beach where I can grab some pipi? Lastly any land based recommendation at Batesman Bay to take my 11 year old? Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croydon Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Hi mate. Broulee Beach south of Batemans Bay has a good population of worms. Over the last dark there were a few jew taken off the wharf in town. Moruya River has some nice jetties to fish off. Hope that helps.

Any particular area at Broulee Beach you recommend? Never been so just wondering whether its better up north closer to Candlagan Creek or further down south near Broulee Island? Hopefully we catch our first firm and perhaps land a fish! As for Moruya River, I could only find Preddys wharf on google map. I presume I can fish off there?

Sounds good mate. Any particular area on the beach? At least if we can't catch worms we can find some pipis. Caught our first pipis earlier this month and kids loved digging them for bait!

SquibblyDibbly Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 You will get both worms and pipis the length of the beach but the best spot for pipis is down the southern end in front a small lake that is closed to the ocean. Like Renegade said that beach is 30 mins north of batemans, not south as I first said. Good luck mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croydon Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 HI mate. Id be looking south along the beach. As for the wharf, yes Preddys on the south side of the river. There is also a wharf on the north side of the river towards the airport. Can also try the breakwall at the Moruya airport as well.
