North Australian FISH FINDER TM forums

Anyone been doing any good on the whiting this season?
I was thinking of taking the kids out to Lee Point this weekend, we caught heaps there last year.

would you get them at low tide? im a bit keen on the idea of catching some whiting this arvo for fun

I have only ever fished for them on the high but I guess they would still be around

Just bought some small poppers gnna give it a crack this arvo

I have had the best results on peeled prawns on super light 2kg gear and a small running sinker, will be interested to see how you go

Did no good.. got 2 hits but no hook up

i Have used small killer lures in rainbow trout pattern in the Pibara for them with success.
at low tide on the flats

Got a few on the incoming tide at lee point yesterday.
On prawn baits.
Might give rapid creek area a got this morning.

Any size to the ones from lee point?

The whiting from lee point were small and few.
Went to rapid creek to fish the incoming tide with small lures and rubbers but with this wind it was to hard.
Changed up to a larger sized rubber so I could cast and got a barracuda and cod.
There were a couple of blokes chasing them on the shallows with bait but didn't see them get to much.
Might give them a go on the weekend when the tide picks up.

I did Lee Point on Sunday and got a big fat donut, it was too windy and the water was pretty rough and dirty, kids had a ball splashing around in the landlocked drains on the beach chasing hermit crabs.

I've always gotten quite a few while throwing the net for mullet at east point. Seen a few people fishing for them with bait and handlines

Cast net is the go for baitfish

caught plenty up to a foot long in the harbour
