Does the Dundee Jew reef produce fish for anyone, I have fished if a bit, all I ever get if those tiny little fish going crazy on ya bait but I have never had anything of note. I did have a live stripy out once and got bricked by what I'm assuming was a very large shark, I couldn't get an inch on it.

I don't know if I have ever fished it on a change of a tide, normally a last role of the dice, of if there is a heap of boats waiting to get out.

Also are those little fish and good to drop down as live bait? Been tempted to try and get a heap on the little bait jigs and see how they go.

I have never seen a jew caught on it . If it had jew professional fishers would be on it like Perons etc. I go there with visitors to stretch their arms on lemon sharks. Catch the bait and move on.

Looks like the wind will just start to get back up again for the weekend. We are out of sync on the weekends at the moment and need a reset so we get windy weeks and nice weekends as it's the wrong way round at the minute. I am looking forward to hearing how it was this weekend just gone down there. Better than I did in the yard fixing irrigators I expect.

We will miss this one coming and the next by the look of the southern hemisphere map. One of those highs needs to bog down in the bight a few extra days to get back in step. Cant believe I wished for that probably never get it moving again. :banghead:
Dundee newbie is quiet after his Sunday Monday outing lets hope they are still cleaning fish!

How predictable Pete even the liarologists picked that one plus looks like it might hold on for Saterday this time, till I knock off at least. Just a bit busy this year so far but I am working on that. How did you go I saw you with the boat on last night near Marara didn't I.
Oh yeah, you and your mid week fishing....... PFFT

Hope your right with the weather Pete, Might head down next Friday for a cruise

See how much I get done at the new place this week
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!
