jenno64 Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Collected some poddies yesterday arvo ready for a bash in the Georges this morning. Launched at Kurnell about 8:30am and tried for some squid but the water still seems a bit murky. Tried a favourite spot for nada and decided to head to a spot I have fished from the shore. Over the next hour or so I picked up four flatties, two in the 50s. Dropped a couple more after some solid takes. As the tide turned I headed up the river to a couple of deep water spots to no avail but tried another drop-off and picked up three more fish with a small area. Headed back to a couple of deep water spots for the last of the run out but not much action so back to the first spot and lost a couple more in between a few undersized plastic caught flatties, one which was followed up to the surface by a fish twice its size. Absolutely beautiful day weather-wise and ended up with a great feed which was filleted into three family meals of tasty fillets! No more fishing for a while as I'm back to work next week:( 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other wise in shallower water an appropriate sized ball sinker to a trace of 50-80mm of 20 lb trace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the baitfish hooked through the dorsal area or the head area? bn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
