Dad joke:
If you rearrange the letters of MAILMEN.
They get really upset.
TWEED RIVER by Smithy
Well once again it has been a cracker of a week on the Tweed river.
The surface fishing was on fire with the whiting queuing up to smash our lures with most days averaging over 20 fish a day. We also caught some bream and a couple of flathead on surface as well.
The flathead are classic to watch as they rise from the botton and use their big bucket mouths to inhale the surface lure. We also mixed it up a bit and did some trolling and deep water jigging for some flatties, bream and whiting and managed to get a nice jewie on Tuesday so overall a great week of fishing.
GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto
I went for a short family holiday Tallebudgera Creek holiday park from Monday until Thursday. It’s a lovely spot and the father in law Harry and I caught heaps of big whiting, bream, and flathead.
The Gold Coast is paradise.
Last Saturday on a broadwater charter we caught some good size sand whiting up to 42cm. The whiting have really increased in numbers and size recently and have been widespread along the Western channels from Biggera waters to Bundall council chambers. They are feeding hard on yabbies and bloodworms. We have caught 6 whiting over 40cm in the past week.
Today I did a charter with regular guests Terry, Mark, and Jonathan and it was such a fun day and great weather. We caught over 40 whiting, bream and long toms on 2 and 4 lb line while wading the Southern broadwater yabby banks. Biggest whiting 35cm, biggest bream 35cm.
It looks like we have some rain coming this week which will help the fishing. Hopefully this summer the storm build up in the afternoons mostly so we can get fishing done in the mornings, and jacks will fire up before the storms.
This week fish off the sand bank drop offs on the run out tides, and on the banks on run in, for whiting, flathead, bream.

*This is just a prediction. There are many factors when it comes to fishing and fish are unpredictable at times, there are no exact guarantees. We include this just for fun and see how it plays out every week.
