GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto

Russ caught some nice big whiting

Although the Gold Coast broadwater is taking it’s time to warm up, with the water temperature sitting around 22 degrees this week, it is still fishing well for flathead, winter whiting, sand whiting, bream, and the usual variety.

Flats fishing video:

Nerang river is getting up to 26 degrees now, with some dirty water from recent rain lingering on run out tides.

I have been taking guests out wading the shallow clear flats and catching nice whiting, flathead, and bream on ultra light tackle and 3 lb line. It’s such a fun and enjoyable way to fish and I’ll be doing lots of these trips over summer.
