Lake Macquarie and Swansea offshore fishing reports

[The Rev]

Hi there fellow Fishraiders,

I am heading up on holidays on Thursday to stay on Lake Macquarie and will be fishing predominantly inside the lake, but also outside if weather permits. Just wondering if there’s any Intel on what is biting  at the moment?

Many thanks,

TheRev

Pleanty of bream inside the entrance to swan island at dusk many large writing also. Heaps of poddy mullet in the shallows squid everywhere. Fish the wreck in Belmont bay you will have a great time. Also the artificial reef system goes ok.

Many thanks @Smobaby for the intel.  In regard to the Belmont Bay wreck - what are they getting there? Also - where about is Swan Island?  I couldn't find it on any of the maps.  cheers

The island is just after the VMR base upstream on the right head into swan bay fish the shallows and channel. Very shallow entrance there or you can go around near the drop off heaps of squid in the weed beds. Best to explore during the day and fish dawn and dusk. We got bream and longtom does hold Jew. We were there the long weekend camping on the island intense boat traffic should be quieter now.
