jenno64 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Headed out early arvo on Saturday to pump some nippers for a whiting or 2 then maybe a squid session at dark. Unfortunately the southerly puffed up by 2pm and I stuck around on the flats drifting nippers, not bothering to venture out of the river. Only managed one nice whiting then ducked into the deeper water about 4:30pm and picked up a little pannie and a soapie that went back. I had to laugh looking at the whiting longer than the soapie! At least a feed for 2 came home:) 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowie Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Bloody wind turned up earlier than forecast. Good length on the whiting, however, it looks a bit thin in the body (or is it just the photo), and a pannie makes for a feed. As a kid fishing in Lake Illawarra, some of the whiting were bigger than the flatties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaac Ct Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Good stuff again, nice feed nonetheless. Hopefully a bit of rain turns up and turns the fishing on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilkfish Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Hi Jenno Good to see that you made a good fishing effort. As Yowie mentioned the whiting is a good length but a bit thin. I noticed this wirh some mullet i caught at grays pt. The mullet are thin. Could this be about time of year conditions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you are right the fish was very light on, looked like a salmon after spawning, would have been low on the weight size!

Yes Isaac, a few inches of rain would probably liven things up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
