Girls thinking about going fishing today
Submitted by Helen on Sun, 2011-06-12 10:12
Hi people. My friend Trudy just got a fishing rod for her 25 birthday (Classic) and all she wants to do now is go fishing. I just got woken up after a big night out to a message begging to go today. I am not much of a land based fishing guru as i have only really done deep sea fishing, so can anyone tell me if today would be a good day to go, and if so a place you can recommend? This could be dangerous. and I am sure it will be a pretty good laugh. Just not sure i feel like getting out of bed just yet.

Thanks NightWolf. We decided to go next weekend seeing it was pretty windy. We also need to get some tackle for Trudy as she only got the rod for her birthday. Keep you posted if we catch anything. I never have luck land based.
Cheers

Ammo Jetty to start with...
Ammo Jetty is a good all year round spot. I usually use a small hook (size 8-10) and small coral prawn cutlets as bait. You can buy berley cage and put some berley to attract more fish.
I have heard that it can be dangerous at night. I usually try to get out of there before dark. A few people have reported that their car windows got smashed. So just be careful if you are fishing late.
Good luck :)

im hearing you,
Used to be able to visit places down there in piece and quiet, leave your gear in un-secured places.
of recent times we've had fishing equipment stolen every year, eski's, even food. And the worst of all was the boat trailer which was locked up in the car park!
