Large FLATHEAD can be seen laying around in the shallows soaking up the warmth from the sun.

Aldo Gioffre caught a nice girl well over 80 cm just up from Blue Peter Boatshed.
Warm sea currents will soon arrive from the north activating the flatties and getting them biting.

Trumpeter Whiting have started to appear, the paddock is a good place to start.
Blue Peter Boatshed have a continuous supply of Live Worms which will guarantee a nice catch of WHITING. ALSO NOW SELLING live Nippers a great all round live bait.

BREAM and TREVALLY are being caught in around the oyster leases and will increase in numbers as the water temperature increases.

King Fish have made their way into Wallis Lake, with good numbers being seen under the bridge on the high tide. These fish are great fun caught on poppers or large soft plastics, also available for sale at Blue Peter Boatshed. We can assist with any other fishing or boating advice you may need.

Most of the islands in WALLIS LAKE have beach areas around them and these are ideal spots for relaxing family picnics. These shallow spots are a great place to throw a line out and catch some WHITING.

Summer time is here!!


The WHITING are around in reasonable numbers this year but so far are only taking bait. As the water temperature rises they will start attacking the surface poppers and small hard bodied lures-
Great fun!

FLATHEAD have moved to the lower reaches of the Lake in big numbers. There have been a lot of reports of broken lines as some of the larger fish grab the bait and head into the oyster leases. In recent weeks a number of larger FLATHEAD have been caught.

Some Anglers are being surprised to hook into a big KINGFISH which have taken up residence in the Lake recently.

Blue Swimmer crabs are so plentiful, it’s not surprising many are being caught up on fishing rod bait!

Other species, BREAM, TREVALLY, FLOUNDER, and TAILOR and LEATHERJACKET to name a few are regularly caught in Wallis Lake and make for a nice mixed catch of fish.

The Prawns will run early Xmas holiday period for about seven days roughly. This will entice the fish to become more active especially the WHITING.

As well as Fishing in Wallis Lake there are many other great activities such as SWIMMING, SNORKELLING and PICNIC AREAS to enjoy.

In our shop we have a comprehensive range of snorkels, aqua shoes, sun hats, sunscreen lotion and sunglasses, the NEW RANGE of BARZ OPTICS is really worth a look!

COME AND VISIT US AT BLUE PETER BOATSHED, WE WILL LOOK AFTER YOU ON WALLIS LAKE!!
REMEMBER WE SELL LIVE BEACH WORMS AND FROZEN FISHERMAN PACKS RIGHT THROUGH THE SUMMER MONTHS.


BLUE PETER BOATSHED will be closed Christmas Day (25th Dec;) this year and will re-open 8am on Boxing Day 26th Dec 2020.

What a great start to Summer! 
In Wallis Lake WHITING are plentiful and can be caught using Live Worms. BREAM are also plentiful around and close to the oyster racks.
BIG KING FISH are still cruising around the Lake but are proving very hard to catch.
The warmer waters in the shallows are hiding FLATHEAD, and they can be lured out with Soft Plastics as well as Bait, such as Pilchards & Mullet Fillets.
There is a very High 2m Tide on Xmas Day.
PRAWNS will run from January, 2019 which will make for great family fun!
 Blue Swimmer Crabs are so plentiful, it’s not surprising many are being caught up on fishing rod bait!
Other species, bream, trevally, flounder, tailor and leatherjacket to name a few are regularly caught in Wallis Lake and make for a nice mixed catch of fish.

As well as fishing in Wallis Lake there are many other great activities such as swimming, snorkelling and picnic areas to enjoy.
In our shop we have comprehensive range of snorkels, aqua shoes, beach toys for children, sun hats, sunscreen and sun glasses, the new range of Barz Optics is worth a look.

SUMMER 2016 wallis lake fishing report

13/11/2020

2 Comments

 
Summer is here again! and with it comes warmer waters and changes with some fish species and their habits.
This year the water is very clear making the fish quite shy and easily spooked. Fishing close to or even into the oyster leases will improve the catch as this is where the fish shelter during the day.

Early morning or late in the day, in the lower light times, are more productive as the fish move out from their shelter into open waters.

This season has seen some schools of very big TREVALLY and if hooked on your light bream gear will test your fishing skills to the fullest.

Once again the SAND WHITING have arrived in big numbers, their favourite bait is Live Worms which we generally have at the Boatshed.

FLATHEAD are being caught regularly on Whitebait or Mullet strips, but now the water has warmed up they are taking the soft plastics much more readily.

If the kids are keen to get out and catch a fish or just have a swim we have a comprehensive, coloured map of the Wallis Lake and can direct you to an excellent fishing or swimming spot.

Blue Swimmer Crabs also become very active during the Summer and can be caught in Witches Hat nets set away from the main boating channels.
​
The prawn run will start around January 10, and should provide some good hauls for about a week from that date.Remember WE SELL LIVE BEACH WORMS AND FROZEN FISHERMAN PACKS  RIGHT THROUGH THE SUMMER MONTHS
