THIS WEEK’S GOLD COAST AND TWEED ESTUARY FISHING REPORT AND NEWS

15 October 2022

Dad joke:

My wife asked me if I could clear the

kitchen table.

I had to get a running start but I made it. 

TWEED RIVER by Smithy

G’day everyone this week’s big tides produced some excellent fishing particularly on the early morning making tides. 

The deep holes were on fire with ZX 40 lures doing some real damage worked along the bottom in 8 to 14 metres of water.

Tom with real nice whiting

The big tides also allowed me to get high up onto the flats with trolled Pontoon 21 lures doing the job in these areas. The species caught this week were a heap of flatties and school jew as well as the odd bream, whiting and giant trevally.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

Nerang river and canals fished quite well this week but the numbers are now tapering off. A mix of flathead, bream, jewies, and trevally on Ecogear ZX40, Samaki vibes, Pontoon 21 crackjacks, Zman ST Grubz  and 6th Sense soft plastics.

Plenty of flathead around still
Pontoon 21 lures catch so many fish including this ting

There are also plenty of good size whiting widespread throughout the system. Bloodworms work best up the river, yabbies best from Sundale bridge and North. You can usually buy live bloodworms from The bait shop at Arundel.

This coming week we have some excellent tides for fishing the broadwater banks. I’m looking forward to chasing some hard fighting big whiting, bream, and flathead on 3 lb line. Sport fishing at it’s best and I still have some days available.
