Trout trip to Snowy Mountains

Steve with a pair of Sand Flathead caught off Coogee

John and a nice Rainbow caught trolling

Rob fly fishing the Thredbo river

Headed to the snowy mountains this week with four keen anglers to have a shot at Trout fishing, The aim was trolling and fly fishing both in the streams and out on the lake.
First some leasons in fly casting and general fly fishing gear and to learn all there is in fishing for Trout the way they feed and there habits on the streams or out on the lake.
Trolling produced some nice fish for the guys over there three days but the weather made fishing the streams a little hard but all in all a top few days in the snowy mountains.
Keen on Trout fishing give me a call for a few top days. 0418 169 439

Botany Bay over the weekend was a little quite but still found a few good fish to keep all happy Trolling produced Salmon along the Third Runway and Yarra Bay.
Trevally around Trevally Alley but you will need to work for them.
Bream off the Third runway and out into the middle of the Bay.
The odd Kingie now starting to show but in smaller numbers, Remember that 65cms is now the legal size, The Kingies are in good numbers along the coast towards Wedding cake island.
I found quite a few good size sand Flathead wide from Coogee drifting.
Spinning with soft plastics for Flathead we are finding the odd good fish with a little work.

This weekend I have two spots free for the singles day which is on Sunday $150.00 per person this is a top days fishing chasing all the different species that are around in the bay this time.
Trolling, Spinning with plastics, Live baiting for kings, Bait fishing for Trevally and Bream.

Surface action in the Bay

This weekend had us out on the water and the weather was just right light wind from the west, Tailor were feeding across Yarra Bay on the surface so trolling and spinning produced the results most fish were around the 35cms with a few better fish mixed in great fun on light tackle.
Trevally slow at Trevally Alley, Better results from Kurnell point as all anglers scored well keeping a few for the table and releasing plenty.
Just of the third runway boated one nice Bream on a nipper bait and landed a 65cm Flathead spinning with soft plastic in the same area, Quick photo and back into the water she went.
The fishing has been great this Winter and the summer season is just starting so if you are keen on a top day fishing give me a call.

Flathead on plastics tried Yarra Bay, Brighton and Ramsgate with no luck but this will be drfferent next trip this is how I fine the Flathead spinning in the Bay.
