TWEED RIVER by Smithy

G’day everyone this week we had some early starts to utilize the tide changes around the lower reaches of the river. 

The locations I was looking for on the tide changes were very pronounced spots where there was a distinctive current line with clean ocean water meeting the dirty water. These spots are ideal feeding areas for all fish and are present at the moment as there is still dirty water coming down from the tweed catchment after recent heavy rainfalls. 

We could not keep a lure in the water without getting double and triple hookups from mass schools of bream but unfortunately although it was fun their was not alot of size in them. We also mixed it up and combined some deep water jigging and deep water trolling and caught some flatties and nice mangrove jacks.

The water is getting clearer by the day and provided we dont receive any more rain the surface fishing will be right back on track next week.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

A crazy week of mangrove jack fishing with 14 caught and released in my boat in five charters. This is peak season around here until March.

I’ve been fishing 29 of the past 30 days, and while the water has been busy there’s always somewhere to get away from the crowd. The whiting fishing has been ok but should pick up over the next week.

There was plenty of tuskfish, flathead, whiting, flounder, tarwhine and bream on the reef surrounding Crab island.

The whiting have copped a serious flogging over the holidays at council chambers, and need time to recover. Even the best anglers are only getting small bags. Same for the crabs.

This week the  big full moon tides drop off which will suit flats fishing nicely. The upper river reaches are best on the bigger tides for jacks and trevally.
