Heading down to the Nerang River Gold Coast on the hunt for the whiting in the warm weather. I have got one location so far (Council Chambers), but need a few more. Planning on making a night of it and one location doesnt go far!
Anyone got any hot spots they would like to share? If you are happy to share but dont want to advertise your spots to the public , I understand and am happy to discuss via private email.
well the council chambers are a start ( put they are pretty popular and can get crowded) ill give you this advice make sure you take live bloodworms and pump some yabbies as well. then head up to the river just 1 hr before dark ,set yourself up *fish light with 6lb mainline and 4lb leader* i wouldnt fish all nite as the action dies around 2 am normally.
find any sand bank with a depth of 1-3m and anchor your self over this.
lots of stingrays and yabby holes is a good sign. also, banks with small patchy areas of weed(dont fish in weed though) seem to be productive banks. sometimes hard to see if water is murky. dont be scared of VERY shallow water(unless your boat says so). Get in as shallow as you can for the boat that you drive. I used to whiting fish the pin area in 3m stessl and found my biggest fish came from drifting with motor up in water that was 1.5-2ft deep. Drifting with yabbies is great for flatties to.
You dont say if your fishing day or night it can make a big differance.
This time of year best spots will be between Sundale Bridge and the Council Chambers their were whiting near the green beacon at the Council Chambers 2 weeks ago but dont park in the chanel or someone will run over you will be very busy this weekend INDY is on. WAYNE.
The Whole stretch of river from the Thomas street bridge to the corner of the council chambers on the southern side of Chevron island has seen me get plenty of Whiting also out in the Broadwater on one of the many Sandbanks.
, I understand and am happy to discuss via private email.
