Thread: Where to fish once the wind stops??

    Where to fish once the wind stops??

    Just wondering where everyone is planning on heading once the wind stops and what everyones opinion is on the effect this fresh water flush will have on the fishing??

    I would think that the rivers might be a bit fresh for the next week or so and the mouths might be the go. It will also be interesting to see if the usual haunts around moreton bay like DUM and HAts turn it on now that things are a bit stirred up.

    Hopefully it is all firing.
    The wind and swell should stop the water being crystal clear.

    Sunday. Lets see. If the wind is less than 20knots I know where I will be. And I reckon there might be a few others there as well. I love a winter south easterly stir up.

    Yeah! This is the time to concentrate on the jew at the mouths of the rivers or in gutters along the beaches near the river mouths. A big slab of mullet or tailor or a whole mullet or pike, live if possible, is the way to go with around dawn and dusk the prime time. The mud crabs could also be worth a shot by about Tuesday or Wednesday

    The island shallows will be the place i suspect most will try, it's been a while since places like green and mud have really fired on the sp.

    Beefa - yeah if this doesn't murk up the water, nothing will.

    Foggy - ahh i see, no hints from you hugh spot it is.

    Blooey and freeeedom - Soapies ay, sounds like a wise choice. I was thinking it might be worth throwing out a few pots.

    Bayfisher - I'm with you mate, heres to hoping that this is what we've needed to get the fish to come out of hiding and into the shallows.

    Bring on sunday............. or maybe its gonna be monday

    Got my spot picked for Sunday morning - outgoing tide, sheltered from the SE, deep hole (for Jew).

    All I need is nobody else at the boat ramp at dawn to impede my progress!

    Good luck to all!

    we got a good haul of muddies last week with only one pot off the jetty, nothing beats mud crab sangas for lunch,
    i think it would be best to give it a few days for the estuaries, let it settle a little, may even try a bit of freshwater bassin
