Lagoon.
People fishing with light tackle are having a ball catching a variety of
Species however I very big River Bream was caught almost as big as the one on
the wall in the shop. River Snapper are also on the bite, they take a variety
of baits and tend to be ambush feeders so fishing for them around some
structure will give you a better chance of hooking one of the fierce fighters.
Baby Honey Comb Rays are still here and give a good account of themselves,
please do not turn them over (you can damage their internal organs) when taking
the hook out. If you don’t have a boat one of the best spots to fish is to the
right of the main car park
Surf.
Diamonds are still been targeted in the main and they are been caught by
the ton, hot spot over the weekend was Port Dunford area, producing more than
the banks. For the guys who are not keen on Diamonds you stand a better chance
of avoiding the by sticking to the main beach however this will on reduce the
chances of hooking a Diamond they are everywhere especially if it is hot and
humid. Some very Nice Dusky Cob are being caught together with Shad in the 2-4
Kg range, be patient. Remember if your spot is not working try walking up and
down around your area to find where the fish are feeding, as I say if you
catching little black tips you fishing in the feeding zone, hang in there.
Ski Boat.
Sea colour is looking good as it the wave height for this week, early
morning sessions before the wind picks up is a must if you have a few days off
work. This weekend nobody went out that we know of some we don’t know what happened
in the local waters.
Up Coming Events.
