Offer - Fishing off the beach at Woodgate

Sun, 06 Dec 09 07:13:24 +1000

Caught some great Tuna off the beach at Woodgate beach just 50km out from Childers.... They were chasing huge schools of bait fish and so having a baitfish lure on my rod already made it a quick choice lol.... caught the first one and while it was difficult to reel in i found reeling in with the waves made it easier, brought the first 1 in threw the line out again and it was hit immediately it was awesome pity we didnt have an esky probably could've kept catching......

Offer - McKenzies Channel Jacobs Well

Sun, 06 Dec 09 06:56:35 +1000

McKensies Channel in usually a place for a sure catch, but today was only the little fellas. The wind was strong with prety rough conditions so we thought we would try McKensies channel, Which is usually out of the wind with some good flathead getting about. But not today. The tides were wrong for a start, with an incoming tide and strong winds it was hard to get into the right position. The few fish that did bite were well under size and the rest were just nibblers that take your bait. In these conditions it is best to find sheltered estuaries or river systems and go early morning before the wind picks up.

Offer - PEEL ISLAND

Thu, 26 Nov 09 04:05:22 +1000

Peel Island is a small island in Moreton Bay on the way over to North Stradbroke Island, like most fishing spots, it has its good and not so good days. The eastern side of Peel is usually good fishing on the running tides with quality catches of Squire, Bream, and Flathead using soft plastics or fresh pilchards, squid or Gar. The deep chanel between Peel and Nth Straddie has been producing early season Tuna and Mackerel chasing the bait fish, These pelagics can be caught by casting large chrome lures into the middle of the feeding frenzy, but be quiet, it is hard not to spook them, stealth is needed to bag a good fish here but they average around 1.5 - 3 kg...and are great fight. I like to check to weather cam from Horseshoe Bay before heading for a session out there. I would like to hear from other anglers who can share their fishing spots and techneques , you can post them on this website for all our user to enjoy or try.

Offer - Nerang River

Sun, 08 Nov 09 01:52:55 +1000

The Nerang river has good inflow points providing fish with plenty of food. The best times for drifting the Nerang River is on the run in tide or on the last of the run out tides. Good quality Trevally can be caught around dawn using popper lures. Bream and flathead bite well on strips of Fresh squid, peeled prawns with light line and weights, best to use long trace as well. During the night, sharks, big flathead, and mangrove jacks respond well to live poddy mullet or strips of mullet or tuna flesh. mullet will also attract Mud Crabs so a few crab pots would be ideal. No boat No worries, the Gold Coast City Council has put many fishing platforms along the Nerang River where land based anglers can enjoy quality catches. Happy hunting

Offer - Quiet Fishing spot in the Wide Bay area

Sun, 08 Nov 09 00:41:19 +1000

I was up at Paradise Dam the other day and I just love this fishing spot. Still a bit of an unknown fishing area it seems - there was not much fishing going on here at all but the lake makes for a fantastic day or weekend and there is certainly plenty of fish going around. The Dam on the Burnett River is not classed as a stocked impoundment therefore no fishing permits are required. However, before the construction of the Dam (which is rather recent) the river was stocked with Bass, Barramundi and Perch. It is very likely and already in the planning that Paradise Dam will be actively stocked in the near future. Visit the Paradise dam website to read up on current fishing permit requirements - or simply ask at the kiosk when you get there.Click here to visit the website

Offer - McKenzies Channel Jacobs Well

Fishing in Mckenzies Channel is a favorite spot of mine, it has a deep gutter at one end and a nice deep rock ledge at the other end, about 15 - 18 ft deep on high tide. The drop of from the rock ledge is an excellent spot to catch big Bream, Flathead and esturary cod passing through the deep channel on the moving tides. It is best to use a long trace with light floating weight between the swivel and the hook. Drift the bait along the rock ledge, there is no room for error here, when the fish bites it will run for cover under the rock ledge, you need to keep your line tight and up high to keep your catch from getting away. Happy fishing

Offer - Gold Coast Seaway

Mon, 19 Oct 09 12:17:43 +1000

There is a variety of fishing methods and spots to try your luck at the Gold Coast Seaway. Fishing the rock wall on the right tide can produce good quality catches of Bream, Cod and Tailor. The Spit beach is a good place to try that new surf rod, there are plenty of Bream, Tailor and Dart in the breaking waves. Pilchards, whole squid or lures are excellent here. There are some sandy shallows on the calm side of the Spit near the boat ramp behind Seaworld, a great place to fish for Whitting. These waters are especially good to fish during the day while the water is warm and full of Flathead. Drifting in a Boat along the Banks of Wave break Island or anchoring near the rock points will usually produce nice Sized Bream, Flathead and the occasional Snapper or Dew fish at night
