Tackleworld – Bundaberg

With the weather forecast not looking great for this weekend with fresh south-easterlies predicted, fishing will be restricted to our local rivers and dams which are both producing some nice fish. Across the Waves fishing club had another successful outing last weekend. By all reports, the Burnett river still produced the goods with some nice bream, 3 tooth jew, blue …

Hope all the Dads have recovered from Father’s Day last Sunday and made the most of the magic weather we experienced around the Bundaberg area last weekend. The boats that did head offshore all reported catching a good feed of both pelagic and reef fish.  Good numbers of Spanish mackerel were caught out further offshore, as were heaps of school …

With the first signs of summer starting to show up, the warm northerly breezes are starting to lift the water temperatures around the Bundaberg area. The only downfall with the full moon will be the amount of run in the tide for the offshore anglers as there will be over three metres difference between high and low tides for the …

Well another Garage Sale has come and gone for this year, and on behalf of all the Tackle World Bundaberg team members, I’d like to thank all who attended last weekend. Hope you enjoyed a free sausage and took home a few bargains as well. For this weekend, keep an eye on the forecast for the Bundaberg area. At this …

Further upstream the weed is still a bit of a problem.  If you can avoid the weed, some nice bream, whiting and flathead are around the sandbars on both soft plastics and fresh baits. The Isis Impoundment (Lake Gregory) has been another great option.  This is a magic little dam as the bass will respond to many techniques.  Always try …

The weather forecast for the Bundaberg area for this weekend looks like it will be okay, but the winds will be slightly stronger than the previous two weekends.  This will restrict most of the action to the close inshore reefs and the local rivers and dams. By all reports any boats that headed offshore last weekend all found the fishing …

Finally, the weather forecast for the Bundaberg area looks okay to get out and wet a line. For the offshore boys, just keep an eye on the change that is meant to come through sometime on Monday. However, with a bit of luck there might be an opportunity to get stuck into some quality reef fish over the weekend. By …

Earlier this week saw a small break in the weather offshore from the Bundaberg area, and a few boats managed to get out. Most caught a good feed with most of the offshore areas producing some quality reds, trout and parrot. The areas out to the Fifteen Mile produced some quality grass sweetlip, squire/snapper and a few tusk fish. There …

Well, the offshore forecast for this weekend is not looking too good for the Bundaberg area, so you’ll have to concentrate on fishing the creeks and rivers. Last weekend’s VMR Bundaberg Family Fishing Classic saw some quality fish caught with most species being in good numbers, and the good fishing still continues. Baffle Creek and the Kolan River have been …

The annual VMR Family Fishing Classic will be held over this weekend at the VMR base at Burnett Heads. This year there is over $50,000 in prizes including two boats to be won. By the number of entry forms we’ve received in store at Tackle World, it looks like there will be a record number of entries. Once again this …
