The weather has been better than expected on the Gold Coast this week with nice sunny days, lighter winds and some fresh mornings as we continue to transition in the cooler months. Let’s have a look at how our customers went this week. For our Houseboat customers and local fishos, Bream will be a prime target as the weather cools …

I have managed to nail a couple of good fish including jewfish, snapper, cod and my mate even managed one cracking bream at 44.5cm. Every one of these fish has come on 95mm Zerek Fish Trap vibes. Another interesting thing I’ve learnt is running a good-quality, abrasion-resistant braid is very beneficial. My mate Liam learnt this very quickly as he …

After a windy weekend, it was nice to see the S/SE wind ease on Wednesday on the Gold Coast, which gave anglers a chance to get out on the water chasing fish for a feed. With light winds and a small swell, heading offshore will be a good option for Friday. Let’s see how the fishing for the Labour long …

Unfortunately, this wasn’t a good move and not far from the boat I got sharked and it was all over. I was gutted and knew it was going to be a tough day. I went back for another drift and hooked another red. This time it was all on camera but I got sharked not long after hooking the fish …

This is an exceptionally large lake and if you only have a smaller vessel or don’t feel comfortable travelling too far afield, barramundi can be …

We’ve had a bit of a mixed bag of weather on the Gold Coast this week, seeing hot NW over the weekend before the return of the SE winds and a few showers mid-week. Let’s have a look at what’s been biting. The water temp has started to cool down a bit as we head toward the end of April,  …

In the Noosa River, it has been a case of the early bird catching the fish, Trevally, queen fish and tailor have all been taken on the surface with both poppers and surface walkers doing some serious damage. Woods Bays, the back of Noosa Sound and the first Ski Run have been the pick of the spots. Try Duo Poco …

We had a good Easter Weekend on the Gold Coast with plenty of Houseboats and customers on the water having fun. The pattern of showers didn’t seem to dampen the spirit of everyone getting outdoors and into some fishing action. Unfortunately the wind has picked up during the week making conditions a bit tough.
