ID:	79778Been a while since my last report, so got out the last couple of days searching for a few fish to post up.

    Had 2 nice sessions on the Sand Whiting leaving me with a good share for the effort.
    Best I caught was a 32 cm but plenty of worm stealing small ones mixed in.
    How expensive are worms getting !! must have gone through $70 worth over the 2 days !! Lucky I didn't need much fuel !!

    Couple of pics To add when I can figure it out with the IPad ?

    We went out Monday.. on the Bay and caught 48 whiting.. Not sure on the biggest but we caught some pretty big ones.
    We didn't get worms cause they were all sold out..

    Yeah had the same trouble Monday, could only get a small amount of live worms, had to use cured beach worms which still caught fish, maybe not as good though ?

    nice fish, were you in the southern bay? i got a few the weekend before in the d-bay area but didn't bother over the long weekend because of the boat traffic.

    Maybe that's I don't catch many whiting as i use very thin squid stips as the live worms as so expensive. Nice catch there Cragie, do you fish in the southern or northen part of the bay.

    Last time a bought some frozen worms they were $5 for a small packet. 6 or so pieces of worms roughly 100 mm long. Live worm were dearer.

    Got these whiting more Northern Bay but close to shore. My fav spot for Whiting is the Nerang River, but a long way to go if I have a dud trip !

    The $40 worth of live worms I purchased Sunday would have sit nicely in the palm of my hand, all gone in a couple of hrs with 2 adults and 2 kids fishing and hardly a fish in the esky, the toads were well fed until the Whiting came on the bite !!
    $1-50 per worm sounds about right .

    Interested to hear what your offering Ian ? Pm if you like. Do you have Blood worms or Beach worms ?

    Squid is a waste of time for summer whiting but is a gun bait for winter whiting.

    my old neighbour when used to pickle his squid strips in a red vinegar as his winter whiting bait, apparently it was his not so secret weapon. but youch craigie, $40 for bait, time to switch to yabbies.
