TWEED RIVER by Smithy

G’day everyone on behalf of Clint and myself we put out or best wishes to the communities that live on the Tweed River that have and are still suffering from the horrible flood event. 

Today was my first day back on the water after volunteering my time and boat to help people along the river as they desperately needed support in this very tough and saddening period . The client I had today knew it was going to be tough going but was well rewarded by the challenging conditions and managed to catch some flatties, bream, whiting, moses perch, estuary cod and was unlucky that a nice jewie spat the lure just outside of net range. 

Pete was well rewarded today after catching a variety of species and losing a jewie with this cracking 73 cm flattie

It was great today to be back guiding and I look forward to fishing next week and trying to help as many flood affected people as I can.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

Fished the broadwater this week, fish were hard to get on lures on the dirty water. Ecogear ZX40’s in gold colours worked ok on whiting, but yabbies and Ecogear worms were most effective.

There are some sand whiting and winter whiting in the Southern broadwater, with bigger tides coming this week the fishing and crabbing action should improve further. 

Plenty of grunter, bream, and tarwhine are around the mid section of Nerang river which are all fun on light tackle. Yabbies, bloodworms and prawns will all work well.
