I was down there 2 weekends ago in my boat with a buddy of mine and his daughter. There certainly are some horse whiting getting about in that system. I got one that went 32 cm while my mate's daughter nailed 2 at 35 & 38cm. All seemed to definately prefer beach worms over any other bait!
Got them on blood worm they are very shy dont bite just swallow and sit there not an easy fish to catch get spooked very easy

funny a mate and I were driffting near the golf club and all we got were 1/2 doz way under size ones :'(
where were u up near the piggery? ;)
It was in the tweed river at spot x i have fished the golf course heaps good fish there caught 30 2 weeks ago drifting around. But spot x whiting is much bigger than golf course ones. I have bought a camera now so next time I catch them you can see photos
c'mon tinn, give it up for your ausfish buddies ;) :D.
I promise i won't catch any ;) ;) ;)
too busy surfing the net dreaming about it ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
that is actually quite sad :'( :'(
Cheers, Roo (wishin' i was fishin')

Good stuff just remember to make sure there is lots of background in all your photos so we locals can pin point your spot x ;D
Looks like the bay is no good this weekend will be heading down to spot x at the the tweed river will hopefully have some pics for you guys on monday.
