Watsons bay game fishing club

In reality, Autumn is the time for big Blue Marlin and in fact, is the time for the biggest of each of the gamefish species. From mid-May until September is winter time. The warm waters of Summer have retreated and the nights are cooling. Although we have caught Striped Marlin right through winter it is not a targeted species. Tuna are becoming more evident with Marlin a bycatch while chasing the tuna. Mako and Blue sharks increase in numbers as they follow the Gemfish spawning run up the coast.

Guest Capacity 6. Overnight Capacity NA. Length 11m. Builder Custom. Seasons By the end of April and into May the warmer water is starting to recede and schools of Sauries become apparent around and over the shelf. Catering Menus Pls bring your own food and snacks. Well done Makira! Entry Forms Available Here. Despite average weather conditions the fishing was on point with tags and captures of blue and striped marlin, big yellowfin tuna, spearfish, sharks and even the odd dolphin fish being recorded.

Over the two days of fishing the fleet of thirty boats raised a total of fish, with 76 being fought and 29 being tagged or captured. Congratulations to Elly Offord fishing in the Junior female category on board Cookie, skippered by Murray Offord, who caught a lb blue marlin on lb tackle and to Ron Kovacs fishing in the Male category onboard Ambition, skippered by Ivan Bennet, who caught a lb blue marlin on 50lb tackle.

Both of these fish are pending Australian and New South Wales records and are a testament to the quality of fish that can be found off Sydney each year in April.
