Local Reports

Unfortunately, the weather forecast for the Bundaberg area for the coming weekend doesn’t look great. The south-easterlies are predicted to strengthen towards the end of the week and ease a little over the weekend, restricting any fishing to the local rivers and dams once again. Over the last weekend my son and I fished the Burnett River with fresh yabbies …

Wasn’t it great to see that the weather forecast came good for the Bundaberg area last weekend? Lots of anglers took advantage of the good conditions and headed offshore from Burnett Heads and 1770 to fish the reefs out around Lady Elliot and Musgrave islands and the country further north. By the amount of boat trailers lined up along the …

At this stage the weather forecast for the Bundaberg area looks good for this weekend, with Sunday being the pick of the two days. However before you go fishing, always check the forecast to keep up to date with what’s going on, as things can change. There haven’t been many offshore reports due to the weather lately. Good numbers of …

With the wind up for most of the week the offshore seen was not the best. Most fish caught offshore this week were taken in the earlier part of the week. North Reef again was one of the favorite hunting grounds and the charters headed up there with some great results. Jew seem to be hitting the decks with regularity …

In Woods Bay there have been some great catches of trevally around the current line and outer Woods Bay. Catches including; big eye, giant, diamond, cale cale and golden trevally. The golden trevally are starting to school up in bigger numbers and should continue to do so with winter approaching. The odd queenfish and a few quality tailor are also …

Once again, some ordinary weather is predicted for the Bundaberg area this weekend. Unfortunately with the strong winds forecast, there won’t be too much offshore action, so any fishing this weekend will be restricted to our local river and impoundments.  Luckily enough both of these options have had some great reports during the past week. Baffle Creek has been fishing …

With the water in the river still quite dirty after the rains a couple weeks ago, fishing the lower reaches of the river around the top of the tide has been the go. Whiting have been in good numbers, quality whiting can still be found around the frying pan and dog beach. Live blood worms have been working particularly well …

Unfortunately the weather forecast for the Bundaberg area doesn’t look the best for this weekend.  Winds from the south-east are expected to freshen and carry on through the weekend, making offshore fishing too uncomfortable.   Luckily enough our local rivers are really starting to produce the goods with lots of quality bream up to 40cm caught lately as the weather …

The Noosa River has had yet another flush through after recent rains. With the full Moon this week and the larger evening tides I would be focusing my effort on the lower reaches of the river. In Woods Bay there have been good numbers of trevally (big eye, gt, golden) and tailor being caught throughout inner and outer Woods Bays. …

A round of the ABT Bass Electric Series was held at Lake Gregory last Sunday.  By all reports the fishing was a little tough but most local Bundy anglers managed to land their bag limit.  Local legend Dave Magner took out the event, weighing in two nice bass he caught by casting at schooled fish in the deeper water.  Dave …
