PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant VBA_SCRIPT - assumed 'VBA_SCRIPT' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP) in ..../includes/functions_navigation.php(802) : eval()'d code on line 1 Manly last night
Just had to get out and wet a line .....the gearbox is buggered on the boat so ventured down to manly harbour (landbased) to fish an hour or so either side of high tide. I haven't fished this place for 4 or 5 years so wasn't expecting too much. A couple of others enjoying the light breeze but left around midnight. I had to place to myself. Finished up with 5 bream 25 - 27cm (throwbacks), 2 bream 30 and 31cm, 1 bloody cattie about 65cm that I managed to catch twice (I cut my line the first time and it was dangling out of its mouth when recaught) and an absolute stonker of a flattie.....measured 79cm. She was a ripper and left to fight another day and hopefully make lots of little baby flatties. It was a gorgeous night with just a slight westerly blowing.
It surprised me however how few trailers were parked at the ramp. I know its Anzac day today but with this weather I was sure it would have been a lot busier.
I hope this weather holds for the weekend and everybody can get out and enjoy our wonderful playground as I did tonight. Tight lines and happy smiles........and to our ANZACS.....Lest we forget. I'm now going to get ready to head down to the dawn service.
i was down there that night and we found it quiet hoping for a tailor.. we ended up getting chased out by mossies and rats... congrats on your catch mate
yer we left 9ish.... nice fish to get on that side of the rock wall. i tend to normally fish the harbour side... bit deeper maybe more structure (beacons,rocks).. maybe i re assess for next time. great report again mate
Mate I've actually always preferred to fish the outer side. In 20 odd years of fishing there I have found it to be more productive. Funnily enough I think I have probably covered every inch of that wall over the years and there is only a handful of spots that regularly fire. At times you will get real elbow slapper whiting but only a couple or so at a time.
