Browns Mountain Fishing: Gemfish & Kingfish off Sydney
Two real Sydney offshore trips to Browns Mountain, with gemfish in 420m, a sudden current change and 100g kingfish jigging at The Peak.
Kingfish and Carp
Back from a big trip and busting to get out on the water chasing kings. Son Chris and his friend Andy Nash good to go, last Saturday. We launched at Roseville and headed to Balmoral Island on a gloomy overcast morning:
Awesome Autumn
Anthony bought a downrigger a month ago and called yesterday needing another one - urgently. He made my day, talking about how downrigging around Sydney has opened a whole new fishing world for him and the family. Here’s…
Come for the mackerel, stay for the mahi

24 Hours On The Water
Down to the boat ramp on Thursday night with a poorly thought out plan for a solo overnight squid session and a dawn kingfish run. Remembered to pack the swag and a massive amount of tackle, but forgot to take food or…
Bad Weather Fishing Options
So when I open up the Instagram page, pics pour in. Blokes sitting on the front seat of hundred thousand dollar centre consoles, with a 40 kilo giant trevally balanced on their knees. Chaps fishing in bream or bass…
