Kayak Noob 76 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 There a few years ago, we caught bag limits of squid from the end of the jetty, and plenty of gar and tommies. very under-rated jetty for table species. Live Fibre 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Just Me 0 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Good spot. From there you can make your way to Barkers Rocks. Anything can turn up. Caught KGs on size 2 squid jig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MistOne 0 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Port Rickaby is good mate, in the summer months i've caught YFW and squid, and from my past experiences anyway it doesnt get as packed as some other jetties along the yorkes.Also maybe worth mentioning, Port Hughes if you havent already been?

Cal 480 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 G"day LF, give the thought of disregarding the jetties and hordes a miss and try the local beaches and rocks around wallaroo, Hughes, Turton ect, avoid the masses and maybe unlock a very nice piece of your own utopia.Went to Ardrossan, in 3 days never set foot on the jetty and came home with an eski full of bream , mullet, Tommy and flathead fillets.Cheers Live Fibre and Kaotik_Monkey 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kadava 0 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 I love Port Rickaby, plenty of Gar and Squid off the jetty. Never caught KGW off the jetty itself but have from barkers rocks and also YFW, ST's and Flathead (altho no legal lizards... yet!). There's lots of reef to fish off also when the tides right. Hopefully going there this weekend actually Live Fibre 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
