Hi Ausfishers, My nephews are coming down from the bush and I want to take them fishing ( land based ) My thoughts are to chase Whiting etc, and I would appreciate any suggestions as to where we can go from Redland Bay and south to the border. I am trying to get them hooked on fishing and would like some good advice as where we can get them. Many thanks in anticipataion Cheers ttone
you could go north to pumicetone passage and you would definatley get some whiting there along with the odd bream and flathead try just out in front of the cornets iga thats were i have pulled good hauls on live worms cheers chris.
Even if u can get kids onto some bait fish herring , yakkas or the like , the action being quick is the key . Keep it simple to , handlines off the beach for whiting is a good start . If there are any squid about off the jettys up there go hard under the lights at night...maybe over at wynnum... Then send th squid down here
What about some undersized bream from one of the rocky man made edges in the tweed river, been years cannot see that situation changing, they will have fun catching lots of throwbacks on thinly sliced squid strips, you can fish a little wider for bigger bites.
If you are able to find some gutters on the beach which are reasonably deep and really close to the edge, have a go with some worms there. I catch my best whiting hauls in these boomerang shaped gutters. Fish the dropoff from the sand bar into the gutter.
How about a trip over on the barge to Stradbroke Island?
There are lots of places over there to produce some decent fish plus the added thrill of the barge and an Island experience. Sure to give the kids a bigger thrill than some mainland rocky groin and throwback breambos.
Kids from the country get a really big buzz from crossing the water in any form of boat.
