ASF Fishing Thread - The Angler's Paradise!!


Can you eat bream out of the cooks river? Or is it only the fish in the parrammatta river that are toxic?

Not supposed to eat them according to the signs. The ones i have caught are probably below the size limit anyway. I would say most are about 20cm. Bought some 35mm lures to hook them a bit better (there you go Julia ) for this w/e

Have you considered joining a local fishing club? Most of the clubs are keen for new members and it is a good way to learn where the good fishing spots are, techniques and bait etc. As well as the company of like minded anglers and safety etc etc etc.
 

Hadn't considered it. Will look into it

I'm only a fair weather fisher when i get the time. The thing that sucks about Sydney compared to Adelaide (aside from the amount of ppl always out fishing) is the lack of jetties. In Adel there are heaps of jetties to go catch tommies off, i dont know of 1 in Syd
 

I was born and bred in that area Prawn (Arncliffe). Where the parkland is along Unwin's Bridge Road used to be an very large garbage landfill site 40-60 years ago. No doubt a lot of toxic stuff went in there and I'm sure some would be still leaching out. I would'nt even like to touch a fish that lived there.

I confine my bream fishing to the south coast of WA these days. My wife holds the family record atm.. 41cm
 
I've gathered that you are more than a bit fond of your own dog/dogs, Nun, so can only imagine you're just wanting to be argumentative. .

yes.:

i like fishing as do zillions of others..... in fact for some it is a passion..

your in da wrong thread for a "save the fish" campaign lady

But you have a great evening regardless.

Perhaps. But I'll attempt to push for reduction of cruelty wherever it occurs, despite your derision, and satisfaction at torturing another species for your own amusement.
Just hope you don't ever extend your philosophy on fish to your dogs.

I note you've not responded to my questions about your earlier points re desexing, training etc.
Why am I not surprised?

To Whom it may concern

There is a thread Gobbedygook Reality,Dreaming,Rubbish
 
Went out of Sydney Harbour on the weekend, got one big King just inside the heads and then a heap of stripe tuna.. Lots of hot water currents running close to Sydney and reports of Wahoo & Spanish Mac even.. I am yet to be convinced.. If i can get some good weather with no wind will try to get off shore to chase some Marlin in the next week or two..
 
Have wanted to get out and do more fishing while i have been here in Sydney, but i think we have only had about 4 good weekends weather wise in the last year so have only managed to get out once.

Cant say im a fan of the Syd weather thats for sure....
 
Amping to go tomorrow (Good Friday) ... 36kms offshore steering 238 degrees and fising on hard bottom in 51 metres. Aiming to catch Dhu fish and Pink Snapper with the odd Coral Trout thrown on top. Grounds have proven catch previously and also have the weather Gods smiling with a 2.6m swell on 3 knots NE at 9.30am. Sheer luxury.
 
I got out on Good Friday.. swell was perfect in Sydney.. but nothing happening.. tried browns mountain for two hours then trolled back to the peak and then a near by fad across to coogee and back home.. nothing .. have been very busy but bought a some stick baits on the weekend and want to get out early am in harbour and try for Kings...

Prawn you should try with Craig McGill in Sydney if you are in Sydney.. he is number one on Sydney harbour and can put you onto some 1m Kings without even going outside.. check out on you tube..
