Date/Time: Sunday night 6th Nov, Dusk onwards

Tide: Falling from high point. High Tide was 7.40pm

Summary

Its been over 1 year since I started fishing. Went out to one of the places where I caught a fish first time.

Bait got taken multiple times. Nothing big to report. Baby fish only, no bigger than 10cm. Good view though.

Saw a squid swim by. Unfortunately, didn't want to eat whitebait.

Top report.

With photos like that I would give up fishing.

Well done. Tha'ts for the photos.

Cheers.

Usually small fish there, I have never caught anything decent at that spot. Go under the bridge - a bit more livelier action there. You just have to get to know the snaggy spots to avoid.

Is there a park or something under the bridge?

I'm just gonna ask the stupid newbie question. Does the Full Moon have a negative effect?

I have been to the Spit Bridge 5 nights in the past week - each night I am averaging 20 hook ups. So for this spot, the moon doesn't affect it much. The right tide will give you plenty more bites though.

I tend to go to the north side of the shore whereas I noticed a lot of bait fishermen hang around the south side.

 

PS: Did you see my haul last night at the Spit?

Just had a look, that's impressive. I'll PM you about the area. It's no where near my local so it'd good to have knowledge about it.
