mullet fisho's about over the last 2 weeks so hoping the tailor have followed
them up and the water temp has dropped in the last week

Yep thats were we are of to tonight ( 6 of us ) lets hope the buggers are about

[Gordie]

Stonecold, we are fishing from the north wall of the river and sometimes along the beach.

Still only the very small tailor coming in. They can't even bite the tail off a soft plastic.
Guess we will check each day for something bigger and keep listening for reports.

well we got a few small choppers nothing to get excited about tonight at cabba

[stonecold]

Gordie, rare that the bigger tailor come in on the wall...best bet is to head up the beach towards salty lake if you have access to a 4wd. Other alternative is to head over to the headland to the sth of the river, couple of good ledges over there. Have a chat with Neil at the bait shop, he'll give you directions. Go for a walk at lunch time and have a look at the best spots. Unfortunately they shouldnt be hard to find due to "some" filthy basta*ds leaving their rubbish behind. Other alternative if you havn't got a 4wd is to drive up to broadwater where there are several access tracks to the beach north of salty lake or further up towards Ballina on patches beach. I'll see if I can get you a mud map

[stonecold]

Have a look at access for these areas mate

[Gordie]

Thanks Stonecold great advice. We will have another fisherman here by mid week and we should have done both spots by weeks end.
Will give you a report by then. Thanks again.

If all else fails mate try Sth wall Ballina only 25 mins or so from Evans..swells up on Friday Sat..there might be a bonus jew about. Ive gotta work but Rabbi should be about.

[rabbi]

Woohoo, Payback. I'll send you some pics m8;D

[stonecold]

Its OK I think Ive managed to catch them all ;-)

[Gordie]

Thanks fellas, we have had a little success. Still very little Tailor of the wall at the river mouth, some reports up the beach but we had a little more success on Chinamans beach. Pulled in a few keeper Tailor.
Thanks Stonecold, I will sen you a PM as we tried out a new lure, you can put it out for all to see if you think it is worthwhile. If I spruce about it here I will cop a lot of flack I am sure.

Regards Gordon
