great sight in marina at hillarys

too rough for the ocean so went for a swim in hillarys by the kids beach, huge amount of small pinkies swimming around, looks good for the future,reckon they need some food but. also lots of small whiting and trumps, haven't seen pinkies at the kids beach before,also heaps along the northern rock wall

Funny you should mention the numbers

 

This year i've caught baby pinks while trying for Whiting from Coogee, North Mole, Hillaries and Mindarie Marina.

It's a really good sign of the numbers for the future

 

The one concern I did have is the amount of people fishing these areas that a lot of them will be taken by certain groups of people
I havent seen it happen yet, but if I do they'll be swimming with the snapper.
