Bread and butter species in Woy Woy Bath

II've been fishing the public whatf in Woy Woy for quite a while but recently discovered that the bath just around the corner is very productive at good tide.

So I usually bottom fish by casting a whole worm or pilchard on a gang hook over to the opposite side and then Iso fish for luderick inside the bath.

On my first session I hooked up with a big bream and in my rush I drop my Iso landing net!! And lost the fish. It was a cold morning but I decided to dive in and find the net but gave up after half an hour. 

Not having a net on the second session I hooked up with a good blackfish on a 4lb line so had to drag it back to shore.

On my third session I finally caught that big bream. A nice 35cm specimen, along with a trevally and two mullets.

I will be trying to do some fly fishing in this area for blackfish and mullets.
