Garfish
Had another quick session out from Seaford tonight and managed 44 garfish in under an hour. Yet again the method used was to net them under the torch light. A lot of fun and a very effective way to get a feed.

Re: Garfish
Nice haul mate, plenty for the table and some for bait. Were you with someone or by yourself? I think garfish has a limit of 40 per person, you've done well bagging out. Welldone and enjoy the feed. cheers

Re: Garfish
It was from the boat, you can also do this from the shore but generally with less success. I’d imagine it would be very entertaining for the kids.purple5ive wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 9:47 amgreat effort lads,

Re: Garfish
All we do is drive the boat around at a speed of around 4-8km, and shine our torches into the water at the side of the boat. Once we see a garfish, dip the net underneath it and let it glide in. It can be tricky and frustrating but also a whole lot of fun. You may want lanyards on the net if the kids are doing it though.purple5ive wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 6:57 pmIrishfisherman wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 3:12 pmIt was from the boat, you can also do this from the shore but generally with less success.
