Local Reports

With a bit of luck, everyone has recovered from their Australia Day activities last weekend.  It was awesome to see so many families and friends in the great outdoors enjoying what the Bundaberg region has to offer. BUNDABERG OFFSHORE By all reports, the bigger boats that headed to the islands out off Agnes Water all managed to boat plenty of …

Well that’s the first month of the New Year done and dusted! From scorching dry heat to humidity high enough to make you head for the air con we have seen some big changes.

Hi Everyone, hope you’ve all had a great week, we have been desperate for rain on the Tweed and Gold Coast for months now, it seems it’s either feast or famine with some parts of the Gold Coast copping up to 300mm of rain last Friday night and Saturday morning.

What a change in the week’s weather we have had.

With the winds staying light throughout the week many anglers found out that Sunshine was the place to be. From the Kayakers to owners of small craft the swell and winds let anyone have a go and most got rewarded. The fish are starting to take a multitude of different presentations, from slow-trolled garfish on pre-made troll rigs to hard-bodies …

How good is it to receive at least a bit of rain around the Bundaberg area over the past week?  Let’s hope this continues into the rest of 2020.  With only one week left of the school holidays, next week is looking like a great chance to get out and wet a line. BUNDABERG OFFSHORE Apart from a few showers, …

BUNDABERG INSHORE The grey and school mackerel are in good numbers on all the inshore reefs off Bundaberg at the moment.  Fast-retrieving 50g Flasha spoons and Halco Twistys vertically off the bottom has been getting most of the bites.  If there’s a bit of run in the tide, setting pilchards out in the mid-water column will get you into some …
