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!

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

all the whiting at spot x are monsters and at times you can find them in big numbers

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
