There were two rescues and I was driving for one of them; a boat got overturned on an outgoing tide and another went belly up on the bar on the incoming tide. This new boat is marvellous and combined with the SeaPro engines it is a dream to operate.” In a rescue situation, especially in the chaotic conditions that exist …

Hi Everyone, hope you’ve all had a great week, unfortunately the weather gods have been testing our patience again with big swells putting a stop to offshore fishing and inshore anglers trying to dodge the wind and rain on the Gold and Tweed Coasts. Hopefully next week is looking better for having some School Holiday fun on the water. Let’s …

The Coomera River has been hot and cold with regards to whiting and we’ve had to try a number of places before getting onto the fish. Even then the bites haven’t been steady throughout the session because there’s often a mad flurry of activity and hooked fish followed by long periods of no action whatsoever. The kids have been pretty good during …

This time of year is simply heaven sent. Glassed out cool mornings extending into beautiful sunny days are what mid-winter fishing is all about. And, more often than not, the trip goes well into the afternoon for that hot evening bite. Though I haven’t had as much time on the water as previously because of business commitments, the days I …

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a nice week. Heading towards the Gold Coast Show Day long weekend at the time of writing, it looks like we will see some moderate wind, unfortunately though there’s a fairly good chance of rain hanging around.

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a nice week. It was good to see some fantastic fishing conditions last weekend and early in the week – giving fishos the opportunity to get out to enjoy some sunshine and a light wind. Unfortunately, at the time of writing my report, as we head into the weekend on the Gold and …

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a nice week. We have seen a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to weather on the Gold and Tweed coasts this week, with some nice days and some windy and rainy. The good news is, at the time of writing my report, the weekend ahead and the start of next …

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a nice week. Well, what a cold and wet start to the week on the Gold and Tweed coasts, with only the keenest of fishos braving the below-average conditions in search of a feed. The good news as we head towards the weekend is that the rain is forecast to clear and we …

Hi everyone, hope you are all having a nice week. Unfortunately, our great run of good weather on the Gold and Tweed coasts has come to an end this week, with the return of wind and rain making things a bit difficult. If you are still keen to get the kids out of the house during the school holidays, we …
