In saying that, the Armour 45 has a massive amount of storage, with plenty of room to stow a number of items. The front storage hatch is huge, though I think some little ‘keeper’ walls on the sides to prevent things rolling off may have made the shelf section a bit more user friendly. However if you want to store …

AS most barra anglers know, the colder months can make fishing at Lake Monduran hard but not impossible, and for those anglers who regularly fish Monduran, many love fishing at this time of year. Some solid fish are still being caught, the only difference is instead of that big straw hat and an Esky full of cold drinks it’s a …

At this stage the broomstick actually has a noticeable bend in it and instinct says you need to either reach for the gaff or the landing net fairly soon.

The wind and swell will be in our favour on Saturday and Sunday. With bait filling the rivers and reefs we are expecting big things. For the inner …

The Noosa River has had yet another flush through after recent rains. With the full Moon this week and the larger evening tides I would be focusing my effort on the lower reaches of the river. In Woods Bay there have been good numbers of trevally (big eye, gt, golden) and tailor being caught throughout inner and outer Woods Bays. …

A round of the ABT Bass Electric Series was held at Lake Gregory last Sunday.  By all reports the fishing was a little tough but most local Bundy anglers managed to land their bag limit.  Local legend Dave Magner took out the event, weighing in two nice bass he caught by casting at schooled fish in the deeper water.  Dave …
