Yamba Fishing

[burger93]

Gday all

Mate of mine has just invited me down to yamba for a weeks fishing.Both of us have never fished this area before and i was just chasing some spots/areas to try. We will be mostly landbased but will also try and hire a boat if posible.Any info would be great as i have no idea what fish are caught in this area and where to go.

cheers sean

Lots and lots of spots. Dont need to look to hard.

I was there back when I was a baito and just walking the rockwall near the mouth casting into the sand banks with white bait I got dozens of flatties and tailor. Good times.

I will do a map of the areas I fished.

I reckon walking the banks here flicking plastics would be sensational.

Im a bit partial to the rocks at woody head

try throwing big poppers and metal slugs off the middle bluff for tailor to 8kg and jew to 30kg. woody head and shark bay are good spots too. all these spots are actually at iluka across the river. you can catch a ferry across from yamba

Hiya

Yup the Iluka side rock wall is sensational, I went up and down the wall flicking soft plastics and got a dozen flatties and a mate got a whopping 90cm flattie trolling a large hard body with his tinnie on a kmart $49.99 rod and reel combo!! lol!

At night on the Iluka beach side off the rock wall I saw a guy pull a monster jew and I got busted off there big time so there are some hefty fish there, especially at night time but beware of big waves on the surf side.

All in all a awesome spot to have a holdiday! I will be there over Christmas hols...cant wait!

Well got back from yamba yesterday after a very windy couple of days.There was nothing worth talking about really besides a couple of nice 30+ bream takin.The flatties were around but were only very small and were mosly takin on sps. I got one big bust off under the bridge on a sp which snapded me off and i think it was a jewy as there has been alot of talk about them being there. Anyways its was a great time had and hope next time is better.

cheers sean
