BUNDABERG OFFSHORE Unfortunately, the offshore forecast is looking a little unstable, with the cool westerly change predicted to reach Bundaberg sometime on Friday afternoon.  This means that most of the action this weekend will be limited to the close inshore reefs, rivers and impoundments.  However, things can change rapidly, so always check the latest forecast before heading out for a …

Well that was July and what a turn in the weather we have had. Finally the winter weather gods smiled and gave us light winds, low swell and mid 20 degree temps to help forget the cold mornings. Pretty much anyone with a rod managed to get out there and enjoy what is on offer. The fishing far and wide …

BUNDABERG OFFSHORE For those anglers who enjoyed the week of fantastic weather around the Bundaberg area, it’s time to do a bit of maintenance as the weather for the coming weekend is looking like it might be a little bit rough for the offshore fishing.  It’s time to change those bearings you were going to change a month ago, and …

Over the past weekend I headed up north to chase some Australian bass in Lake Gregory, Bundaberg.

With Sunday and Monday blowing 30 knots or more it came as a welcome surprise to see glassed out conditions on Tuesday and much of the week. In the lead up to the Full moon the fish were certainly chewing hard with some outstanding captures in the river. Offshore we saw a solid mixed bag of species and a few …

BUNDABERG OFFSHORE Around the Bundaberg area, it looks like we are in for a cracker weekend of weather!  With the smaller tides the deep should be fishing awesome all day.  Using big flesh baits on Elkat ganged hooks should stir up the big reds.  Remember to stay patient through all the smaller hussar bites and wait for that big red …

Hi Everyone, hope you’ve all had a great week, how good has the weather been on the Tweed and Gold Coasts with cooler starts turning into nice warm sunny days and light winds perfect for going fishing. Let’s see what has been happening this week. Last Saturday I headed up around Jumpinpin with the kids to have a look around …

What a turn around and what a shame for those who had the weekend off. The weather gods turned things around following a blustery weekend and we got stuck into some typical winter weather. With a fading ground swell to less than a metre and light offshore winds anyone who had time off was headed offshore. The local reefs that …
