Inshore/Offshore The school mackerel have been in very good numbers over the past couple of weeks.  Fast retrieving spoons vertically off the bottom has been getting plenty of bites from the Mac but if you’re more into bait fishing, using pilchards can be a killer technique as well. There’s also been some nice grunter and late seasoned snapper around so be …

Inshore/Offshore Last weekends weather proved to be absolutely stunning and it was great to see plenty of quality fish being caught. Those fortunate enough to head out over the weekend were rewarded with plenty of coral trout, red emperor, tusk fish and grassy sweetlip. Most of these fish were caught on large flesh baits fished on the bottom with squid and …

BUNDABERG INSHORE/OFFSHORE With this weekend’s weather shaping up to be red hot we should see plenty of great fish being caught. The schoolie mackerel are all along our coast at the moment and are in numbers we don’t get to see too often.

BUNDABERG INSHORE/OFFSHORE With our inshore reefs swarmed with yakka, the pelagic fishing has been red hot. Heaps of anglers had fun using topwater lures catching a few cracker queenfish, tuna and trevally, while these predators smash bait balls.

BUNDABERG INSHORE/OFFSHORE Our local inshore reefs have been swarmed with bait over the past couple of weeks.
