dlvbw Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Hey Raiders, With pretty good weather over the holidays we managed to get the boat out a few times. Some family missions (Pittwater/Palmy) and a couple of trips to Longie (and Sydney Harbour). Overall the fishing has been excellent though haven't found the big kings (that everyone seems to have caught yesterday ). A quick summary below. Pittwater/Palmy - we have had two family trips parked up on the Pittwater side of Palmy. We have soaked the crab pots to the west and then fished for flatties out front. The crabs have been on and we have had some good catches of Blue Swimmers. The flatties have also been good with plenty of good fish in the 50s and one croc at 69cm. Good thing is we have been getting them in about 35m so no need to slog too far wide. Chilli BBQ crab and beer battered flathead makes for a good meal. Longie/Sydney Harbour - no secret that there are rats in all the usual places right now. We have had a couple of good sessions at Longie catching rats on livies, fresh squid and even some stripped Sergeant Baker (which interestingly ate a livey meant for a king!). There have also been schools of salmon in the harbour. During one session we found some good kings underneath that were happy to take our livies. Managed a nice fish for the table but nothing large. Ended up as delicious sushi for NYE. Fishing with the family, @REELCRAZYand @fish-aholic. Pretty lucky to live in Sydney and have access to these great areas for fishing.
