beachwormer Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Pulled up plenty of beachworms in a 1 hour session to keep me in live bait for a few days at a beach just south of Sawtell where we are staying. Worked at it on first session for 3 keeper whiting and a bream. They were yummy. Absolutely beautiful up here but I think I may need to come back in February for the whiting to be really on. Caught a lot of throwback whiting and bream so the sessions were far from boring. Also plagued by plate sized stingrays who just LOVE beachworms. I'm figuring when the whiting start to really run on the beaches the stingrays won't have time to get to the bait! Anyone had any decent sized catches of whiting elsewhere on the NSW beaches? 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Top report. Just love catching Whiting. Caught a few recently on the Coast. They seem to be bigger this year. Have a great time. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter0069 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I have caught good whiting in the Bonville Creek just behind the caravan Park with yabbies years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can totally see how you'd pull whiting out of there. My friend a long time local told me there's a drop off not far from the entrance where he has caught good soapie jew from his dinghy.

jenno64 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 That is a beautiful creek....I bet it is packed with people at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter0069 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I fished most of the creek from the mouth to the very back of it over 40 years ago with my brother we would spend about 6 weeks at Xmas filling our days in that creek it’s probably the reason I fish today some great memories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bessell1955 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) It sounds like the creek is on fire. Edited December 31, 2022 by bessell1955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
