John Moore from Narooma Fishing Charters reports Monday’s afternoon run on his new boat was very quiet until the tide change. Then there were kings everywhere, but the small fish were first to the lures, until young Narooma local Will Tiffen caught a nice 75cm king, with a little help from dad Greg. Will has his 8th birthday this week, so happy birthday!

The island has been delivering good bags of mixed reef fish, including some unheard of tropical pearl perch, but more on that below.

Bermagui Bait & Tackle reported kingfish were in good numbers at the island over the weekend with plenty of mackerel at the White House back off Bermagui for livies too. There were a few blue eye at Bunga.  Wallaga Lake fished well and young Heidi landed her PB Dusky. The bream fishing in the lake was great for some with guide Stuey Hindson’s  clients landing 39 fish to 42cm.

The Narooma Ocean Hut Compleat Angler reports plenty of bait action on Wagonga Inlet and you should be looking for tailor and jewies working these bait balls.

Meanwhile down at Mouya, Tackle World team member Nathan enjoyed good catches of whiting on the new Jackson Pygmy poppers, and smashed the bass on Jackson Cicadas. Graham reports proud new dad Kyle landed himself good quality bream on VX vibes. If you’re looking for a feed of flatties, head on down to the front of the river on the high tide and fish the flats using Silver Fox Squidgies in the 70mm fish.  Flatties are at Tomakin too.

In the Tuross system, Graham says jewies, jewies and more jewies are being caught around the boat shed in deep water, mainly on live poddies, however the soft plastic boys are enjoying catches using 140mm Squidgie flick baits in white lightening colour. Head up to the four ways for good catches of flathead, however if it's whiting you’re after, head down to the front of the system and once again try your luck with surface lures.

Up above the highway bridge you will find nice perch and heading further upstream you will find yourself some really nice bass using either deep diving Strada Badger lures or the Jackson Cicadas. If you feel like a nice feed of prawns or mud crabs, the area around the caravan park is not disappointing with nice prawns being scooped up.

Offshore Graham reports Team Tackle World VIP member, Spider, reports some really nice snapper, mowies, flathead and gummy sharks anywhere from 20 metres out to 70 metres of water.  If you’re wanting to chase the yellowfin, reports are coming in that they are currently out around the 1000 fathom mark.
