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

17 February 2023

Dad joke:

My wife left me because of my gambling addiction.

But I know I can win her back.

TWEED RIVER by Smithy

G’day everyone, this week once again the deeper holes provided the best fishing with flathead, mangrove jack, and trevally caught on Ecogear breamer and zx vibes.

Fish feeding activity has increased as we get closer to the new moon and associated bigger tides. 

The rock bars of the Tweed river have been holding fish in the mornings before the water heats up.

This little jack crunched a breamer vibe

To book a private lure fishing charter with Brad call him on 0419 028 704 around 4-6pm daily, he is heavily booked as usual but has this coming Friday and Sunday available.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

We’ve been lucky to have some good weather lately, and more to come next week. During the small neap tides the deepest areas in the broadwater were fishing best with a variety of species.

Ecogear ZX40’s, Ecogear breamer vibes, and live yabbies were once again working well, on flathead, flounder, tarwine, bream, tuskies, squire, tailor, whiting, and even squid. There were a few blue swimmer crabs too.

We now have morning king tides again leading up to new moon on Monday 20 February. I just fish where the flow is best during each stage of the tides. Close to the changes I fish the deeper open channels and on top of sand flats. During the hardest run I fish anywhere that has protection from the strong flow like side channels and edges. The water will be super clear on run in so look 

Nice broadwater catch

Next week the big tides drop off and tides come around to morning lows, the whiting have been quiet so hopefully they return. 

I only have this coming Wednesday still available this week, and a few days the following week.
