Bream

THE past month’s fishing has been pretty good and we have captured all sorts of species from cod to mackerel and flathead. I couldn’t ask for a better start to winter. The mackerel we’ve caught have been an assortment of schoolies and spotties. We have hooked them from the top end of Moreton Bay right down to the southern bay …

I’m pretty sure that last weekend was the best 2 days of winter weather we’ve had on the Gold Coast for a long time, warm, sunny and almost zero wind made spending time on the water a pleasure. With good conditions on offer plenty of fishing was done both inshore and offshore. During the week we have seen the return …

The rain was fantastic but the wild winds caused a little damage with some trees down and it also flattened some of the local sugar cane crops. Let’s hope it stays dry for the start of the crushing which is due to kick off in the next few …

IT seems to be either drought or torrential rain on the Gold Coast, last weekend we saw the heavens open up with rain and wind dominating the forecast. There are some benefits to so much rain, it gets the mud crabs on the move, gives the rivers a good flush and pushes the bait into the main systems. From Sunday …

It’s great to be back after a good break, I defiantly made the most of the nice weather we’ve had the past couple of weeks. It looks like we are in for some wind and much needed rain on the Gold Coast from Friday until mid-next week. As we make the transition into winter the offshore bottom fishing has started …

The Noosa River over the last week has been the place to be if you love chasing trevally, good sized giant trevally have been coming from around the Coast Guard boats near Munna Point as well as Inner Woods Bay.
