Well I headed down the pier this morning for first light to fish over high water. Got there about 5am and there was a canny sea on so I decided to set up a little way past the first gate and fish seaward side into the gulley in case there was any silver about. There wasn't but I had a canny session all the same. I fished two rods, one seaward side and one harbour side. Baits alternating between rag, Mackie and bluey and various combinations. The seaward side produced a few flounders including a canny one 37cm and a smaller one with lovely red fins.

The harbour side produced a few coalies, biggest one 33cm, and a small tommy. I packed up about 9am in good time to get back for breakfast

Great report mate. Seems like the fish were on the end of the pier today, the Alberta club had a match on so it was chocka but there were some canny fish caught. I hung back at the 44 but only a couple of coalies to show.

Ah ha! That explains why hoards of people all turned up just after the gate was opened, it was like a bus had just pulled in. Yeah a canny day to be out and nice to see a fresh of run of coddies turning up this weekend though sadly none of them were mine
