THIS WEEK’S GOLD COAST AND TWEED ESTUARY FISHING REPORT AND NEWS
7 October 2022
Dad joke:
I saw an old fella with a fishing rod outside my local pub fishing in a puddle.
He looked so cold!
I felt sorry for him and said “come in for a drink and get warm”.
As we sipped our double scotches I thought I’d humour him and asked:
“how many fish have you caught today?”
He replied “you are the eighth”.
TWEED RIVER by Smithy
G’day everyone the fishing this week for some reason was a little bit tough and although we caught fish every day I did not get the big numbers of fish on the scoreboard that I am used too.
At the end of the day my clients were thrilled and learnt a heap about lure fishing and can’t wait to come again. The good old Ecogear zx40 lures were without a doubt the best lure worked in both the shallows and the deep holes of the river.
The fish caught this week were bream, a few small giant trevally, school jew and some quality flatties being the stand out species.

GOLD COAST RIVERS by Clinto
This week was a bit all over the place, with the weather and fishing inconsistent. We caught some good numbers of big whiting in the shallows where the water was clean enough, but the channels and edges had a lot of snot weed floating around.
The bream seemed to love the browner water of the run in tides. They were that thick from Sundale bridge to Capri bridge it was hard to catch anything else, and there were many big tarwhine amongst them.
Further up river there are some whiting, giant trevally, spotted grunter, and flathead. Yabbies were working extremely well as were small soft plastics like Zman ST Grubz and 6th Sense paddletails.
We now have the lead up to full moon on Monday 10 October, which should see some aggressive bite periods.

*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.
