Submitted by crezz on Thu, 2013-08-01 17:54
G'day guys,
Where is a good spot in the metro area to catch a feed of whiting that are actually an edible size? I have been going to the beach near salt on the water and catching them like blowies but all small ones. is there anywhere in particular where I could get some 25-30cm models? i'm land based. cheers guys.

Still some big ones around if
Still some big ones around if you know where to look. Did well in about 30m behind carnac island a couple weeks ago. Good feed.
Landbased, there are a couple good spots around mosman bay where there are some small beaches. I find that the bigger ones are in slightly deeper water at this time of year, which some people may disagree with. A good cast into a bit deeper water helps.
