New people here，Anyone prawning these days？

Big tides = tougher Prawning

Your decrease in success may be due to a multitude of issues. Some or all maybe related to moon phase, tides and currents

Prawning has been good lately but I do know a long weekend and nice weather will bring out all the clowns

Thanks for this. I went onto tides4fishing and checked the tidal coefficients for the month and damned if last weekend didn't have pretty low ones -- around 80-90, while this week is well north of 100. Seems like it's coming back down tonight and for the next several days, so we'll see if the catch improves as well.

I try and fish as much weight as I dare and find that helps. Weight the line up a bit from the traps too since prawns are skidish and avoid anything moving around to much
