Botany Bay 07/05/06

Hi there,

Went for a flick of the plastics again Sunday morning.
First tried off one of the breakwaters along grand parade. Was all quiet until something stomped my lure and cut me off before i knew what happened! Was only using 8lb fluoro trace. Nothing after that, was there about an hour.

Then went down to Kyeemah and fished the inlet. As usual there was a bit of a crowd down there. 2nd cast and I caught a small flattie - throwback. After that things quietened for about an hour, until i started getting some small chopper tailor, 3 - all throwbacks. Finally hooked a decent Tailor only to have him spit the lure as i tried to land him!

Two guys either side of me had the best catches. They were bait fishing with heavy sinkers and casting right into the middle of the inlet. They landed a couple good Bream and decent Trevally, as well as a big ray that put up a good 20 minute fight.

Started fishing at 8am and pulled up stumps at 12 noon as my stomach was rumbling.

Nice work Ed. I been hearing a few good words about the Bay. I may go down there on Saturday to target some of the late season kings that have been getting around.

From what i believe the late season kings are all but gone, arent they?

Good reports on trev's though

From things I have heard, they were around 2 weeks ago. This part of the year is when the bigger fish start getting round anyway.

Talking to some spearos and they have speared a few 15kg models in the last two weeks.
