Yowie Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Headed out early this morning, the first time in the Hacking for 4 or 5 weeks, as I have been cruising about in my caravan. Fished up from Lilli Pilli, most fish biting before sun-up. After that it was just little reddies. Mixed bait of pillies, squid and salted fish strips - no yakkas to be caught. Also pulled out 2 little jewies, about the size of the larger tailor, and a last cast for a trevally nearing 40cm, that was released. A fairly quiet morning, though it is still early spring. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Flatty Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Nice flattie there Yowie, a good feed in that fish alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac Ct Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Good stuff Yowie, nice to see you back and fishing so I know what to do. I went out yesterday and caught zilch. Nippers, flats, deep water, nothing caught except 1 small pinkie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidless Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Nice to see you back at it and never failing to take a feed home! I was also out this morning, out at the mouth looking for squid but no luck like @Larkin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent a few weeks around the northern NSW/south Qld border, mainly a few bream, whiting, flatties, though plenty of throwbacks amongst them. Also landed 2 small trevally, with large eyes, so guessing Big Eye Trevally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebenbomb Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 A little quiet, but after a 5 week break, you got right back into it again - and produced a nice feed for the family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickles Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Well done Dave - you did better than Sam, Neil and I - could have given you heaps of Yakkas, as that is all we caught - looks like a nice feed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bob. That one flattie feed 4 of us. Cut off the fillets, removed skin and bones, cut the fillets into bite sized pieces, crumbed and pan fried with a few prawns added, chips and veges. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
