bmh to get livebait in the hinchinbrook the tide can't be in the mangroves if it is below then some spots to get livies are the bank on the right hand side of dungeness creek near the boat ramp ,about 500meters into the seymour river on the left hand side there is a mudbank with some gutters , go a bit further into the seymour and the second creek on the left has some nice gutters on a mud bank this creek comes back onto the seymour only 200 meters futher up . the points of the islands opposite this creek have nice mullet from time to time watch out it can be shallow. going up deluge inlet take the first creek on your right and go up to between the first and second creeks on its right there are some nice gutters.
the secret is the tide can't be in the mangroves
it is also well worth your while to fish some of these spots as the old story of the fish being where the bait is
