Let's Fish!
Are you Hooked??
If there are two activities, above all others, that we pride ourselves on here on the NSW South Coast, it’s our SURFIN’ and our FISHIN’. And why shouldn’t we, with miles of rugged and majestic coastline, pristine beaches, bountiful and beautiful estuary systems, and tranquil mountain streams as our playground!!!
The South Coast is an anglers’ paradise offering almost every type of fishing possible. The freshwater creeks through picturesque Berry and Jamberoo hold good stocks of Australian Bass, with the lower reaches producing particularly large specimens during summer.
The Minnamurra River, Crooked River, and Shoalhaven River estuary systems are all great spots for a day of productive family fishing, yielding Bream, Whiting, Flathead, Luderick, and Mulloway.
The many beaches and rock ledges offer the more experienced land-based fisherman a chance to hook up onto schools of huge Salmon, Tailor and Kingfish pretty much right throughout the year.
The intrepid boat fisherman will find first class boat ramp facilities all along the South Coast with most anglers accessing the vast inshore fishing grounds from ramps at Shellharbour, Kiama, Gerringong, or Gerroa.
If you get tired of catching good bags of Snapper, Morwong, Leather-jacket and reef fish, then the abundant game fishing grounds off Jervis Bay are just as easily accessed from the Crookhaven River. Expect anything from Mako to Marlin and everything in between!
Whether it’s catching a few waves on a deserted beach, or a couple of fish for the barbie later on, take it from a local, the South Coast of NSW will truly deliver.
