Isaac Ct Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 A short report from yesterday, headed out to lilli pilli around 4 with the intention of trying for some pinkies and maybe a Jew. Started fishing pillies and squid strips on the bottom and both produced numerous reddies to 27cm. Missed a few good hits and had a whole squid sliced in half from a big tailor or shark. Managed a 57cm soapie on the squid which was a welcome surprise, photo didn't save. Windy after dark and nothing bit after dark as well. There always seems to be a hot bite for 15-30 mins just before dark then quite. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Hornet Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 (edited) Good going Isaac. You caught what you set out for and nothing wrong with a 57 jew whatsoever. I find after dark, even large jew will move up into shallow water. My 2 most successful spots at the river mouth are only around 1.5m deep when they show up. Are you heading down this way over the school holidays? There’s been some good fish around lately. Edited June 26, 2023 by Green Hornet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Pete, I had a suspicion that the Jews would move into shallower water based on prior information. I am heading down your way in about a weeks time, what has been the go-to fish/spots at the moment.? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beaches and blackfish are worthwhile, plus there’s some good fishing in The Basin if you can avoid the wind. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
