Pickles Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 @Hads, his young fella (Jenson) and I have planned several trips that have been either washed out or blown out lately, so last night we decided to just get wet and target Jewies in the Hawkesbury at the turn of tide at midday. You don’t melt in the rain and the fish are already wet and air temp was warm, so of we went. We ended up with 8 Jewies (always respect bag and size limits) 4 nice tailor and some Flatties. We came home saturated, but smiling. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoods Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Thanks for the report - can you advise how you rig the banana please? Setup, what size hook(s) etc Floating bait?? I am intrigued as we have dirty water up the coast & desperate for a fish. Thanks Hoodz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hoodz Hey Hoodz, drop a banana in the burley pot, or get some “essence of banana” (Coles cooking section), rub it all over your bait or simply use a 2 hook snood rig on a long strip of banana peel - can’t miss. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rob, water was dirty as, debris, sticks and rubbish in quantity (had to keep my eyes peeled for flotsam, but pretty difficult with rain pelting down). Great jewfish weather though and for an “average” forecast, it was a great day - young bloke (10) had a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
