If I had to choose one style of angling to enjoy for the rest of my life, I would select light tackle fishing on the NSW far south coast estuaries.
While I consider myself a bit of an angling all-rounder, there’s something about estuary fishing that genuinely floats my boat (pun intended).
I’ve fished scores of estuaries up and down the NSW coast, but the systems in the far south-east have it all – pristine scenery, isolation, a plethora of angling options and loads of fish to boot!
But these systems don’t always give up their secrets easily. Some are incredibly popular and quite heavily fished by recreational anglers. Others, although more off the beaten track, still take some working out.
You certainly shouldn’t expect to rock up to any southern estuary
