Windang Beach no fish

Whether the pros have been or not, reports coming in are saying the Illawarra beaches aren't fishing well lately.

Further south has been quiet as well and bait fishos are saying nothing but sand crabs.

I think they mean those little ones that get cranky when you catch them, and bite real hard, only about an inch or two across the shell, not Blue Swimmers!

The latest reports now are even the crabs have gone.

@noelmThe ones we get down here are about 100mm or more across the shell. They frighten the crap out of you when they stick their claws out of the sand when beachworming haha. 

Some guys eat them and reckon they taste better than blue swimmers.

That's the ones with two red spots on them, they get to an OK size, but those little cranky ones are small, but good at biting, stealing bait and scaring the crap out of you when you think it's a worm.....

Yep, beaches are dead at the moment, that's for sure, there's a few Bream around the rocks, but that's about it.

Sure are, I’m going to give the beach a rest and chase some bream in the lake.
