BUNDABERG OFFSHORE What can I say… the school mackerel have been on the chew, succumbing to the small Samaki metal slugs and the faithful Flasha lures. Don’t forget to throw an unweighted pillie out the back – you might get lucky and land a big spanish mackerel that could be lurking around at the moment. At this stage, the weekend …

Hi everyone, hope you have all had a great week. It’s been another fairly nice week on the Tweed and Gold Coast, with moderate wind making fishing inshore waters a fine option. Offshore, the large swell has stuck around most of the week with only the most experienced anglers trying their luck. Unfortunately, as we head into the weekend the …

As predicted the swell continues to linger around and this week has seen a few boats cross the bar. Right now, this should only be done by experienced skippers in boats with plenty of horsepower hanging off the back. Sunshine Coast Noosa During the week, Sunshine was fished by the bigger charter boats and small cobia were still hanging around …

Rains hit the pause button – we have all seen some huge falls around the region, with some major and minor flooding across the region.

The morning tides are quite big, so the coral trout and redthroat emperor should be on the chew in the shallows. I’d definitely be focussing on the shallows until the afternoon tide change, then I’d be fishing the deep for your …

“Kicking off 2022” – Well, here we all are and welcome to 2022. We all hope you are safe and are looking forward to getting out there. Despite the bad offshore conditions, we still have many more options in the local area to choose from. The Noosa bar has been rough and with the winds only the larger charter boats …

Hi everyone, hope you have all had a great start to the new year, once again this week there has been no respite from the strong winds, large swell and rain that has been battering the Gold Coast for the past two weeks making it very tuff for those that had time off and planned a few fishing trips on …

Another year is done and dusted, so Happy New Year to you all and may your beer be cold and your rods be bent!
