I was shocked.
TWEED RIVER by Smithy
G’day everyone this was once again a full week of charters with a few days getting a bit wet from showers.
Getting hit by the odd rain squall did not bother us as the fishing was to good to be phased by the conditions. The fish are now slowly starting to move further up the river as the water quality is improving gradually after the flood event.
In saying this please keep an eye out while motoring up the river as there are still a lot of logs and debris floating around. The species caught on our lures this week were bream. flatties, whiting, trevally, grunter, tailor and school jew.
To book a private lure fishing charter with Brad call him on 0419 028 704 around 4-6pm daily.
GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto
In the lead up to new moon this Sunday we had some good but inconsistent fishing. Some days the fish were feeding aggressively, other days they were shy.
That’s fishing though, they can’t always be hungry.
On the good days we boated 50+ fish, slower days around 10-20, the dominant species once again were sand whiting, winter whiting, flounder, dusky flathead, tailor, tarwhine, squire, and bream.
Freshly pumped yabbies always catch fish, while the stand out lures were Ecogear Isome XL worms in red and brown, Ecogear ZX40 in 440 colour, and Samaki Vibelicious forktail 70mm in Cleopatra Tiger colour.

Best areas to fish were North Currigee and Runaway Bay. The water is continuing to clear after the floods, water temp sitting around 22- 23 degrees.
This weekend looks nice before some wind arrives for a few days. I’ll be taking advantage of the bigger tides close to new moon on Sunday by fishing the mid to upper reaches of Nerang river.
Next week is good for the deeper reefy channels of the Northern broadwater in the 5-7 metre depth range, and the yabby flats on the run in tide casting and twitching hardbody lures for flathead.
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.

*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.
