Hey guys

Anyone know of a few good spots to cast a line from the land in Sydney? Got 9 days of work over there and figure I mite as well get my fix and try get a line wet.
Any tips on rig setups, and techniques that may yield a fish or 2 would be great too please.
I'm working at Garden Island in the drydock, but can get around a wee way.

Cheers]]> Mon, 12 Aug 2019 09:25:11 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=131656&PID=1760181&title=sydney-harbour-fishing#1760181 <![CDATA[Australia : Fraser Island Australia]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=127039&PID=1748177&title=fraser-island-australia#1748177 Author: Titahi

I think the guys who know what a grander actually looks like would be very reluctant to call a fish that wasn’t caught over the mark..   let alone call two of them?

Yeah - they look like a top outfit and well-resourced. Worth considering for sure. 

Has anyone has first-hand experience with one of their reef fishing options?

Hiya, I'm considering a mid-winter (July) fishing trip based on or off-shore from Cape York.  

Recommendations, please? Is the west of the cape too windy in July?

We've got 5-6 days and are only interested in reef fishing - popper and jig, with a bit of fly and trolling (resting). 

Targeting the usual tropical reef species: GTs, wahoo, mackerel, bass, coutta, emperors, trout, wrasse and tuna etc. Ideally, there would be sailfish action and the odd small blue. 

Barra fishing doesn't really interest me and if it did I'd head to the Fly River not NT.

We don't mind being based at remote-lodge or mother ship. 

Any suggestions? I've trolled the internet and emailed a few providers but I'd prefer a recommendation or two. 

Happy to pay more for more active fishing as I've paid for plenty of disappointing trips in the past.

Was there a week ago but only could find a couple of charters leaving from the Sea World marina. About $100-120 for 4-5 hrs. Fully booked until about 12 Jan so we didn't get out
