Lure fishing for Tailor on Monday morning
Submitted by Captain Grumpy on Sun, 2011-03-06 13:46
Afternoon All,
Im a little bit over bream and flathead fishing in the swan and want to have a crack at some lure fishing for Tailor tomorrow morning. i haven't fished any beaches/reefy areas N.O.R. before and wouldnt mind some suggestions as to where is good for a early morning Tailor.
Im not looking for secret spots, just point me in the right direction and i will give it a go!!!.
Has anyone had any success with lures and Tailor up that way lately? Comments and advice appreciated.

Yes to the 4x4 question. Is Club cap reefy? is beach access easy to find?

Club Cap has a lot of reef.
Club Cap has a lot of reef. everywere hahah. theres a car park at the end of the road into Club Cap itself. so you walk down onto the beach. i have found most success on the right hand side of the rock wall, in the little 'bay'. casting towards the NNW, you should pass your lure/bait over reef. we have had tailor take the lures/baits in the open sand though!

S.O.R. Beaches?....
Would Tims Thicket/White hills be the closest SOR option for legal 4wding?

Ive never had luck with
Ive never had luck with tailor on roosters, have caught salmon but never tailor. I was fish with my brother once and i was using a richter plug and he was using a rooster, i got 6 or 7 tailor and lost even more, biggest going 61cms, and the rooster didnt get a hit all day. I would take a twisty too, 30-40g.

What Oz?
what size plugs were you using Beau? were you skipping them on the surface or letting them sink a bit?
P.S. Got the Twisty angle covered to!!

sorry for the late reply
sorry for the late reply Captain! I personally use the 1oz as i usually fish it with a 2-4kg flicky and 8lb main line. Fishing from shore and a bit heavier gear I'd probably go the 2oz. Skip them along the top definately! How'd you go anyway?
