Tuesday
The wild weather continued; strong south-easterly winds and plenty of rain. On Tuesday morning I braved the rocks at the southern end of Workman’s Beach, near Agnes Water. This area is sheltered from a southerly and south-easterly and there is plenty of fishy looking territory.
Workmans Beach – wild weather
The sun nearly came out
Looked very fishy
The sun appeared.. briefly
The jewfish spot was out of bounds
After a few days of big seas, the water was all stirred up and a milky brown colour. I started with soft plastics and then switched to slugs and hard bodies, but nothing yielded results. The sun came out mid-morning, but not for long. As the day wore on, the wind picked up. It then brought the clouds back in. Just after lunch, there was another downpour, so I gave up. Tuesday had been my first zero fish session for quite some time!
Landangler, it seems you are human after all :-). Following your blogs on the types of soft plastics used and the time to fish i have been getting some nice 50cm flathead around Tingalpa. However i am loosing a few jigs and plastics to what i believe are tailor as i am only using 6lb leader on 4lb braid.
Almost certainly Tailor – a few around at the moment. I lost a few plastics to them this morning
