    Today I collected around 40 nippers from seacliff and tomorrow I want to put them to use off the beach - but when and where?
    I haven't done much fishing over the last decade so want to make these count. Where and when would be the best bet?
    I see Tennison has been good, I know that Seacliff is popular for YFW, and I have seen people fishing for YFW off Somerton. Where would you go?
    I gather best time probably the first 2 hours after low tide?

    Had no luck at Kingston park though they were there. Then gave somerton beach a go on the far side of the sand bar. Two nice YFW and a couple of undersized flattys. Not a great day but at leas not empty handed and my daughter enjoyed herself.

    I will start by saying that i have never caught a metro YFW but.........................................
    have caught a few at Pt Vincent 🎣
    I generally catch & use the nippers same day but I guess if you keep em well they'll be ok.
    So, low tide to collect then fish the run in tide almost straight away, running ball sinker, # 4 or # 6 long shank hook.
    I walk back in with the tide until the bite stops.
    I've seen folk @ Seacliff catching at both low & high tide, the tides aren't bad tomorrow so I'd try Seacliff around the low.
    Hope this helps & let us know how you go 😀

    Thanks fellas. Collected 20 this arvo. Was going to try them in the morning. Are there any suitable land based spots on the coffin Bay township side of the bay? Haven't seen a sole fishing off the shore.
