Hey guys,
Here goes for this week's fishing report.
Moruya River -
The river has been fishing well of late, benefiting both locals
and tourists alike. Flathead and whiting of notable size have
been caught from the hospital flat and up, with the flathead
attracted to the new Squidgy Pro Range Slick Rigs especially.
The whiting however, prefer a natural approach, responding best to
beach worms - the live version of which is sold exclusively by
Tackle World Moruya. The flathead are also around the quarry
wharf, however, the tailor are more prolific and are hitting the
Armor Twisties and soft plastics the hardest. If it's the
bridge you want to fish, flounder will be your most common catch on
white bait. The hole in the wall is fishing well for
luderick, which as always, respond best to green weed. From
the pump station up, the bass are hitting Heddon Crazy Crawlers and
Cameons.
Tuross -
Congratulations are in order for Warren, who in the middle of a
popper session for whiting was successful in hooking a whiting,
only to find his whiting being eaten by a 106cm flathead, leading
him to bag both fish (releasing the flathead, of course).
Tricky catches like that, the stuff of fishing legend. That
being said, the system as a whole is fishing extremely well for
flathead, and bream also. The entrance has been providing
numerous catches of luderick, again, as in Moruya River, responding
best to green weed. Jew fish are going mad for soft plastics,
specifically 110mm White Lightning Squidgies, so it's a good time
to practice your retrieve technique.
Rocks and Beaches -
Broulee rocks are providing some kingies on metal slices and
squid on UV Blast squid jigs, which are also working well off Congo
headland. Off the wall, the bream, flathead, salmon and
tailor are responding best to salted pilchards, with good gutters
around the windsock area providing the majority of the
salmon. Decent sized whiting and salmon are also being pulled
in off Broulee beaches.
Offshore -
Conditions permitting, Captain Ron aboard Winda Woppa I and II
has been pulling in plenty of salmon, snapper, flathead, mowies and
nannygai on squid, with some benito on the troll around the
headlands. The occasional gummy shark are hitting fish bait
around the 30m of water mark. The water temperature has been
running around a comfortable 20 degrees celcius so all is looking
well for a fantastic New Year of fishing!
