Plenty of bait at Ammo Jetty

I've fished Ammo Jetty these last two days. Thought I'd give it a try since it's notoriously dodgy to leave your car there in the evenings.

PLENTY of scaleys around and you can catch them until your heart's content, or you run out of berley lol. I am really surprised that there is hardly any predators around gorging themselves on the massive amounts of food down there.

There are also a lot of bloody nor-west blowies around pinching live baits too. Caught about 6 of em today. Unfortunately I still couldn't open my shark account.

The interesting news; there seems to be something coming through, but not hanging around for long, in the morning harassing the trillions of bait fish. The 1st day other fishos saw something they thought to be a mackie, doing a few lengths of the jetty (don't take my word for it though, I didn't see it) and this morning there was something thrashing around again but it didn't hang around long enough for me to throw something at it. I just wish I could get down there again and try see what it is!! I just hope whatever it is, if it gets caught, is reported on here to ease my curiosity.

Cheers, Alex. PS: It really needs rubbish bins!!!

Woodies mackie

 Last Sunday me and one of my mates saw a spaniard at woodies, he was casting a popper on a sienna 1000!! The spaniard came up and smashed the popper but missed the trebles. We then saw it again only minutes later come up and smash a scaly school, probably only a 10-12 kilo one but still awesome to see.

Inside the marina? Or are you talking about the ammo jetty further north from the actual point?

It wouldn't suprise me if it

It wouldn't suprise me if it was a mackeral, considering Antsey caught one off there not too long ago.
Don't think it was a seal or dolphin because quite a few people saw it and it was cruising right up against the jetty.

Sarcasm0 the concrete jetty that's off John Graham Recreation Reserve.

They would probably put new bins there if people didnt keep setting them alight.
