Good day at Hillarys.

Went to Hillary's today and had a fish off the south wall.
All up we caught about 20 fish, but kept only 10 and sent the rest back. Most of them were herring, but we also managed 4 tarwhine - 1 kept the rest released, and a few skippy tiddlers.

Thanks.
We were there from about 11.00 in the morning till 4.00 in the afternoon. Everyone else had gone home, so it was really quiet there.

How far along
the wall do you fish Shortly. Do you fish behind Aqwa or more towards the northern end of the south wall (if you get what I am getting at). I tend to find you get more tailor down towards the Aqwa end and more herring around the middle.
All the best, Colin Hay

i better start fishing on
i better start fishing on the south side!!!
i always go to the north side and usually get jack. iv found that the area between the restuarant and the boat pens is a much better spot that off the actaul wall spot with not much blowies recently.
