Hello all,

Hope to make some friends and catch some fish!

Haven't been to shorncliffe in 4 years and was planning on taking some mates there this Sunday (23rd),
Does anyone have any solid tips?  

Oh, and also with the airport spill, would shorncliffe still be OK?

Thanks all!

Welcome to the site.

Sorry I don't fish that area at all so can't offer any useful information. Will you fishing from the jetty or a boat? 

The best way to make friends and learn from the site is to be active in helping where you can and reporting when you get out. 

The search function is very useful and there is a massive amount of information archived and your next question could easily have been asked before.  Click on the magnifine glass symbol top of the page . 

Hope to see your report with photos of your success soon.

Advice was to avoid eating seafood from Shorncliffe area due to spill. Doesn't mean you cannot catch and release

Thanks for the replies! @Luvit @Angus
Will definitely post up any updates and catches on my journeys. 
Seems like the crew is keen on fishing at the coast, so we'll see what we can catch then.

Welcome to the site mate - like @Luvit I don't fish there so unfortunately can't help either. Do a search for report/s

by @Daryl McPhee, pretty sure he put one or two up with some good bread and butter catches. Good luck!!

Thanks @kmcrosby78
I was actually reading some of Daryl McPhees threads before, thats how i found this forum!

G'day,

I'm not sure if you have seen this one or not. This time of year is good around Shorncliffe for tailor and flathead (bar tailed and dusky) and yellowfin whiting at night after the next full moon.

@Daryl McPhee I have seen this! Awesome vids you have.

I went to the seaway jetty on Saturday instead, and caught lots of BIG snags. hahaha
Also went to shorncliffe last night, took my little brothers out and they caught their first bream and whiting. All under size though but they were very hyped. Good to be back at shorncliffe fishing, hope to be there more often too!

Thanks mate. Shorncliffe will fish pretty well over the next couple of months.
