How Big Sharks Were Netted Commercially

A Sydney visitor and crew haul in a 80 inch tiger shark off Pindimar after a dawn voyage from the Devil. Heavy seas, kelp, and a bombera nearby challenge nets costing over £100 each as Ping and Manton direct the haul. The shark fights fiercely, teeth and edges described, before the crew secures it amid a treacherous, rain‑slicked dawn.

Net Menace and Whale Boat Battle Off Stephens Island

Fishing Report From The Parramatta River And Surrounds

Reports from the Parramatta River area note strong bream catches and widespread activity along the foreshore. Fishermen describe chiller fish, dusky mackerel, and various snapper, with high bream numbers near Snake Wind and Goat Island. Local anglers praise Linele bream and Whiting in the Pittwater and lower waters, while Blackfish and Flathead show steady sport off Port Hacking and Wooloowaro Bay. The NSW Red Mishers Society approves a £29 donation toward building a shark-tra iling stage at Whitton’s Bay, providing scales for the catch.
