xerotao Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Not much of a report. My family headed up to Forster for a triple birthday bash (wife,son and myself) in January all within a week of each other. And blue swimmers were the target. headed up on monday 22nd and checked out on friday 26th to beat public holiday and boy were we glad. set our pots in wallis lake and checked them every morning before heading out to go for a fish or stop off a beach. And checked our pots every late afternoon after dinner. ended up with a few blue swimmers and a nice muddie. We did being our rods but were enjoying swimming on the beach or pool to be fishing. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsswordfisherman Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Delicious and a big Happy Bday to you all. Weather looked great for swimming. Love that area. We tow the van up and stay at Tuncurry CP. We are off down south soon and hope we catch some big fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Nice bag of crabs. Usually a few flatties off the sand banks up that way, and bream in the oyster leases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoods Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Glad you enjoyed yourselves. I was crossing the bridge the other day and the Dolphins were playing around just upstream which caused a traffic jam as cars stopped on the bridge to watch them. Such is life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derny Driver Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I was on the Wallis Lake every day over Christmas. Caught quite a lot of flathead and also 3 good sized flounder. Nice work with the crabbing! The talk at the time was about people's crab pots disappearing every night. Apparently the Pros pots were always untouched but everyone elses got stolen. Infer from that what you will. I didnt fish real hard either. I docked my boat every morning at the Waterline Boathouse cafe and wine bar and just watched the world go by. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds very nice! We do the same at Yamba Shores when up there on holidays . . . but without the boat part 😆 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if it gets open then i know someone has pulled my pots and possibly taken my catch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He saw a crab pot buoy, motored over to it and pulled it up. Nothing in it luckily but these morons seem to think stealing is okay. And showing his kids that he is a thief. Incredible.
