Something stinks in this town and especially the Hunter River. I noticed some small dead fingerlings in the Newy harbour on Tuesday. Most worthwhile action is offshore as some big schools of baitfish are working up a feeding frenzy for larger pelagics and airborne hunters. My trusty binoculars noticed a few small "yakkas" getting amongst the swarm of baitfish off Newcastle Beach and the Cowrie Hole on Monday and Tuesday morning.
