Hayes Inlet

[kingcray]

Hey all
Went for a quick flatty flick saturday morning up in the Hayes Inlet area for couple hours, threw the pots in at the last minute. Was glad i did as the fishing was pretty poor. Lost lots of gulps to pickers and little flatties, nothing worth mentioning.
Ended up being 1 happy crabber for daytime crabbing pretty easy work.

Cheers :beer:

p.s to the fellow prawners, lots of bananas up on the sandbanks in 30-50cm of water, didnt have the bloody cast net bugger, lesson learnt.

Well done, I haven't had any luck up there for the last couple of months. Even the herring and mullet, for live bait. are hard to find.

Good stuff Deano gotta be happy with that lot beats paying a shitload for them at Morgans mate haha.

split-shot, there were a lot of large mullet up there. I dont normally see much bait fish activity through there but this time i had the whole inlet to myself, 1 boat anchored and a few kayakers so was very quiet.

mick you're not wrong. Love a feed or 2 of crabs, even better when its that easy. Just make sure i pack the cast net next time

Were you up in Fresh or Salt water creek?

[kingcray]

split-shot, neither just drifting the banks between the beacons. Had the pots down before the pipe and 2 out off clontarf.
