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

22 November 2021

*Monster whiting in the broadwater

*Brad still getting good flathead

Dad joke:

I just bought a Christmas tree and my daughter asked “Dad, are you going to put it up yourself?”

Me: “No, I was going to put it up in the living room”

TWEED RIVER by Smithy

G’day everyone once again I spread the week out fishing both the tweed and goldy. 

The main species caught were flatties with most fish being very good quality averaging around the 50 cm mark. The flatties were smashing the slam minnows on the troll and were scoffing both zx 40’s and Samaki vibes bounced along the bottom in the deeper holes and channels. 

Cooper was stoked to catch his first GT
Chris and his dad had a ball getting on to school of quality flatties

The other species caught were some nice giant trevally which are an amazing sports fish on light tackle. We also spotted some birds and baitfish being hammered which at first we thought were trevally but ended up being school mackerel.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

We’ve been going hard chasing monster whiting on the flats. We’re now in peak season for these magnificent fish until about February next year.

Last summer on wading charters we caught around 30 whiting over 40cm in length, and lost count of how many were over 35cm. The Gold Coast is a premium fishing destination for huge sand whiting and so far this summer is looking good again.

The water temperature around some flats were as low as 20 degrees this week, which seemed to put the whiting off. Once we found an area with temp of 23 or above it was game on.

The channels have been quiet lately with smaller fish, we do need some heavy rain to flush things out.

The almanac looks low on average this week, but if fish are hungry they will eat.

Tune in every Saturday morning 5-6am on 94.1 FM when I chat to Paul Burt and give fishing tips on his new radio show.
