Moruya River & Tuross

Moruya River is still producing nice catches of bream, in particular around Ryans creek with a mixture of hardbodies and fresh beach worms both working well.

There are an abundance of flathead in Tuross, however you must check sizes carefully as there are a lot of "littlies", but in amongst them you will find some decent catches.  The fact that there are so many "littlies" bodes well for the future with all you guys releasing the big "girls" it's obviously paying off.

Beaches and Rocks

Goulburn Workers paid off well for Nathan and Juzz who enjoyed nice catches of bream, whiting (yes they're still around) and tailor - all off fresh beach worms.

The rocks are still working a treat for good catches of drummer being pulled in off peeled prawns or cunji.  Most headlands are working well.

Team Tackle World member Nathan has been diving with a great success rate on nice lobbies at the moment - head in store we only have 4 pots left!!

Offshore

VIP member Damon scored some nice Snapper on the weekend straight off the front of Moruya on Squidgy 120 mm Wrigglers.

Meanwhile, Captain Ron onboard Winda Woppa I and II set out off Moruya and drifted slowly down to Tuross in 40 m of water and enjoyed nice catches of snapper and flathead.  All were caught on bait fish and squid.  There were a few pigs around with good sized leatherjackets off the reefs as well.  The water temperature is currently running at 19.5 degrees celcius with a mild current running.  Broulee Surfclub (just out the front) is also producing some very nice catches of flathead at the moment also.

Good news!!  Excellent reports of yellowfin out wide with sizes of 100 kg plus.

Stocks of Salt Away and Stabil have now both been revamped, so there's plenty in store to keep your tackle and motors in good order.

Beach worms are in store NOW, so hurry to secure yourself a tub or two!!

Have a great week everyone and remember "everyday's a good day for fishing ..... "

Moruya River

Head to Town Wharf and go for a walk down to Ryans Creek and you'll secure yourself some nice catches of bream in this area.  Strike Pro blades are working a treat with the bait fisho's having most luck with prawns or live beach worms - which will be back in stock at 9.00 am tomorrow.  There are still plenty of those large tailor around the Quarry Wharf area, so it may be a good idea to use a light wire trace down to your metal slice.  Team Tackle World member Aaron has also been enjoying nice catches of flathead from Ryans Creek down (walking along the bank) using Gulp 4" swimming mullet.

Tuross

Tackle World VIP member Richard reports good catches of bream on Cranka Shads (diving hard body) around the oyster leases as well as in the shallows around the big island.  Nathan and Jazz launched their canoes on Wednesday and enjoyed a great catch and release session scoring Bass up to 40 cm on Sebile Cranksters.  Team Tackle World member Jade also scored bream and mullet on Prawn Dog Surface Walkers further up the back of the system. 

Beaches and Rocks

South Head beach is producing some nice catches of bream and flathead off live beach worms, while Salmon and Tailor are being brought in off the Breakwall.  For best results use a Paternsoter rig with a surf popper on the top teamed with gang hooks on the bottom.

Offshore

Captain Ron onboard Winda Woppa 1 and II reports a nice water temperature of 19.5 degrees celcius, with a good slow drift running at the moment.  The windsock produced some nice flathead in the 20 m mark.  Ron then headed out into the 30-50 metre mark and had to do some searching but ended up with catches of snapper, mowies and pigfish, with some exceptional gummmies around 15-25 kg in size.  Bait of choice has been squid and mullet fillets.  Throw out a diving lure such as a Strada Tracka 140 mm while trolling as there have been plenty of benito around at the moment as well.

We have just recently returned from the annual Camping and Outdoor Trade Show and as a result will be refurbishing this part of our store with some great new product.  Don't forget when you're inside checking out the fishing gear there is also an upstairs full of camping gear!!

Have a great week everyone and remember "everyday's a good day for fishing ..... "

Moruya River

The flathead are still in the River, with VIP member Merv having a great catch and release session during the week using Gulp Banana Prawns.  Merv released at least 20 flathead and had most of his success down around the weir area. The big tailor are still being caught around the deep hole near Quarry Wharf on either pillies or Arma Metal Slices - some of these tailor have been reported to be up to 12 lb in size.

Tuross

As at this time we have unfortunately not had a report on Tuross this week, however our staff are currently out fishing the system now, so we should have some "stories" to tell next week!

Beaches and Rocks

Nathan and Juzz headed back down to Pedro and scored themselves some nice bream and salmon.  Not sure of the count just yet as Nathan put in the report!!  They then launched their brand new canoes and christened them with catches of nice sized bream in one of their favourite hot spots (sorry can't tell)!!  Spud Point has also got some really well formed gutters running along the beach, so is well worth a fish this weekend.

Team Tackle World member Dave is also enjoying good catches of nice drummer off the rocks.

Offshore

The "outside boys" have been enjoying good catches of squid off Broulee on IKA UV Blast squid jigs - try some FogDog Lemon Pepper batter to turn these squid into an extremely "yummy" meal.

Head out wide off Pedro around the 50 metre mark armed with River2Sea jigs and experience some nice catches of kingies!  The usual reef species are also still being caught on squid and fish bait.

VIP members keep an eye on your e-mail and letterboxes as we reward your loyalty with some nice vouchers for you to spend "on us"!!  Please be sure to check the expiry date as these vouchers are only good for the time specified on them.  We will also be holding an "invitation only" evening/day for VIP members!  If you have time can you please e-mail/drop in store and let us know if you'd prefer to attend on a Saturday afternoon (after 3 pm), of an evening 5.30-7.30 during the week, or on a Sunday morning or Sunday afternoon.  Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Have a great week everyone and remember "everyday's a good day for fishing ..... "

Moruya River

Good news - the large flathead around Moruya bridge and Town Wharf are still hanging around (as reported last week) with best results using both 3" and 4" Swimming Mullet in the Gulp range. Head further upstream around the Hospital for some nice catches of both bream and estuary perch on Squidgy Bloodworm 80 mm soft plastics.  As usual big tailor are still being caught around the deep hole near Quarry Wharf on either pillies or Arma Metal Slices.

Tuross

VIP member, Cruiser headed down to Tuross with a fresh bucket of "nippers" and landed himself some nice flathead, flounder and bream - check out the live bait buckets in store they allow you to keep your bait nice and fresh with ease of water changes.  Meanwhile, Jade and Tom headed further upstream to once again have a great catch and release session on the bream using SX40's as well as some nice "flatties" while trolling with Strada Pieta deep diving hardbodies.

Beaches and Rocks

Team Tackle World members Nathan and Juzz were at it again off Pedro and enjoyed a nice afternoon with Juzz bagging herself six nice whiting, while Nathan enjoyed catches of two Tarwine - all fish were caught on fresh beach worms which will once again be in store for the weekend.  Keep counting boys because I know who's coming out on top yet again!!

Some nice drummer are also being pulled in off the rocks using the preferred bait for this species of cunji.

Offshore

Captain Ron onboard Winda Woppa enjoyed catches of flathead in 20 m of water  just off the windsock, while out in the 50 m mark he scored snapper, mowies and pigfish all off fish bait and squid.  The water is a little dirty in close, however the sea conditions are good and the water temperature is currently running at 19.6 degrees celcius.

Back in store - NIGHTFIRE Reels - these reels do not last long with their "flashy" lights much loved by young and old alike!  Perhaps Mum would enjoy one for Mother's Day!!  Also back in stock STABIL fuel stabiliser to ensure the best performance out of your outboard motor (this stabiliser can also be used in lawn mowers, whipper snippers, etc).

Don't forget to head in store and "have a go" at the ultimate fishing game - believe me once played never forgotten and you may be "hooked" even better than the Marlin you can catch!

Have a great week everyone and remember "everyday's a good day for fishing ..... "

Moruya River

Prior to the lovely weather (ha ha!!) we've been experiencing, some lucky people beat the rain to the punch to enjoy catches of large flathead (93 cm) around Moruya bridge and Town Wharf on soft plastics.  Flatties are also being caught down the front around the "spur" wall.  The big tailor are still jumping around the place as reported last week.

Tuross

Tackle World VIP members Jade and his side kick Tom had a great session on Wednesday in the rain catching and releasing 20 large bream all being hooked on the new "you beaut" Strada Tragics 40 mm deep diving lures in and around the snags in the backwaters.

Beaches and Rocks

Unfortunately due to the inclement weather we have nothing to report this week.  However as I sit here typing, the sun is shining and its absolutely beautiful outside so hopefully we've seen the end of the rain!

Offshore

One lucky fisho was ecstatic when he landed a nice marlin off Tomakin while bottom bashing!  Meanwhile, Captain Ron onboard Winda Woppa enjoyed catches of flathead straight off Moruya in 40 metres of water, and then ventured out into the 50 metre mark to be rewarded with catches of snapper, mowies, pigfish and gummy sharks all on fish bait and squid.

The boys out at Congo (and Michelle) are enjoying nice catches of Squid on Tackle World IKA UV blasts squid jigs as well as some nice snapper on Gulp soft plastics.  The water temperature is currently running at 19.2 degrees celcius with a mild current.

But who cares about the weather?  We at Tackle World Moruya have a great answer to days when you can't get out to fish due to bad seas or lightning strikes!  Make a trip into the shop on Sunday and join our in-store fishing comp, where you can catch anything from bream to marlin!  You've got to see it to believe it, and boy will you get hooked on this little beauty!!

Have a great week everyone and remember "everyday's a good day for fishing ..... "  See you on Sunday!!

Moruya River

Tackle World member Nathan caught plenty of flathead in the 40 to 50 centimetre range down the front of Moruya walking the wall using 3 inch swimming mullet as the choice of plastic.  There's also plenty of big tailor in the river as well. The lure of choice being larger surface lures as there aerial antics when hooked are rather spectacular.

Tuross

Tackle World VIP members Jade and his side kick Tom have been out and about chasing bream on both Shimano lure project hard bodies and Strada deeper diving lures. Tackle world member Evan has also been out during the holiday period chasing Flathead on fly with great success. He also caught numbers of Whiting on the old favourite of ours the SX 40's.

Beaches and Rocks

The beaches have still been producing good numbers of fish this week with TW Member Nathan getting on top of Justine (so to speak) in catching bream and whiting on live beach worms. Salmon and the odd shark are also being caught at night.  Nice size drummer are being caught off the rocks at south head.  Salmon and Bonito are being caught of the break all using ganged pillies early in the morning.  Off Mullimburra point the Luderick are being hauled in mostly on green weed.

Remember every day is a good day for fishing

Moruya River and Tuross-

As the case was last week the upper reaches of Tuross seems to be the hotspot for bream at the moment with the Cranka shallow diving lures still working a treat in the snags, whilst the Cranka vibes are still working their magic amongst the oyster leases.  The perch are still in the snags as well responding best to Squidgy Bugs in Bloodworm.  Head down to the front of the system for some very nice flathead - some around the 90 cm mark - on deep diving Strada Tragic lures, as well as nice whiting on beach worms.  Team Tackle World member Mark has been enjoying great afternoon catch and release sessions walking the flats of Moruya river catching good sized bream and flathead on Berkley Prawn dogs (surface walkers).  Moruya bridge is also producing some nice flathead of an evening off Squidgy Wrigglers.  

Rocks and Beaches -

Well  Team Tackle World members  Juzz and Nathan are still at it using fresh beach worms to land themselves whiting, flathead and bream all off South Head beach - as has been happening lately Juzz is still kicking Nathan's butt!  Broulee beach is the place to be to try your luck for a jewie with some nice ones being brought in during the last week.  Most of the beaches are still producing good catches of salmon and tailor as well as large bonito off the rocks of an evening.  Meringo is the place to be if you're chasing gummy sharks which are being caught of an evening off fish bait. 

Live beach worms will almost guarantee a successful session for bream and whiting regardless of your beach of choice, and we'll try and keep good numbers in stock over Easter if we're at all able. 

Offshore -

Team Tackle World VIP member Derek enjoyed a nice mornings fish this week landing himself some good sized kingies, snapper, nannygai and pigfish.  Derek's favourite spot - out wide off Pedro Point.

Moruya River and Tuross-

The upper reaches of Tuross seems to be the hotspot for bream at the moment with Team Tackle World member Jade enjoying a great catch and release session, scoring himself 20 bream all around the 30-40 cm mark on Cranka shallow diving lures in the snags, whilst the Cranka vibes were the "go" amongst the oyster leases.  Also amongst Tuross' snags are some well sized perch, responding best to Instinct Quickas.  If it's Moruya you're fishing, head down between Quarry Wharf and the flats opposite Preddies where you'll find some nice flathead and bream which have been responding well to Squidgy Fish Silver Fox, as well as Evil Minnows in wrigglers.  

Rocks and Beaches -

The well formed gutters at Pedro Point remain successful for large catches of salmon, bream and mullet with Team Tackle World member Juzz really showing up Nathan over the week with their bait of choice being live beach worms.  Live beach worms will almost guarantee a successful session for bream and whiting regardless of your beach of choice, and we'll try and keep good numbers in stock over Easter if we're at all able.   If you're fishing the break wall, you're likely to be rewarded with great catches of salmon using Arma Twistees or Arma Metalik's being the smart choice as the tailor will hit them hard as well.

Offshore -

The boys from Braidwood were down last weekend and had a great session outside on kingies, large bonito, snapper, mowies and gummy sharks straight out the front of Moruya on the first reef.  Captain Ron also reports similar catches off the first reef as well as flathead, nannygai and pigfish out in 50 metres of water - all on live bait.

Noel and his mate Ziggy headed back out and enjoyed a couple of days on Tuross and believe it or not caught most of their fish in the dirty water!  However Noel did say it made it very difficult when you're sight fishing with hard bodies.  Most of the catches were flatties - a couple around 58 cm, and 30 more "littlies" that were thrown back.
