Rummers Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Hey Raiders, I have searched the forum and didn’t really find anything too conclusive. but does anybody have any spots inside the bay they are willing to share where they have got live bait before in port Stephens? looking to head out Sunday to try for a Jew (bane of my existence at the moment) if the conditions are favourable and want to avoid heading out the front in 2.5m swell if I can.

kingie chaser Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Boat or land based? By boat have come across slimies all over the place. Shoal bay for slimies & Gars & caught them on the other side towards jimmies Beach. Also if you set a poddy mullet trap at most beaches your allowed to you'll get some. Yakka's usually hang around the piers & pylons, will come to the burley along with all the other pickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchie Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 The wreck at corlette sometimes has them. There is no real consistent spot in the back half of the bay. You can definitely try the jetty at Sally and let me know how you go! 😀 cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rummers Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 Am happy to travel anywhere in the bay. Was just trying to avoid the swells out front if I could really. might take some of the old bread and burley up somewhere, or even some arrow squid around shoal bay.. the failures of my Jew adventures have largely been because of the lack of bait I get 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torpedo tubes or near the buoy in shoaly furthest to the west! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
