Yabs - Lbait Pine Rv to Bribie area

[IRMC000]

Can anyone suggest where to get yabbies and livebait anywhere between the Pine River and Bribie Island areas?
Thanks

plenty of mullet and herring through the pine and the caboolture river, and im pretty sure there are yabbies around hays inlet and surrounds

There are plenty of Herring and Mullet in the Pine/Hay's inlet area at present. Bait net or cast net is the go. Have not found any yabbies in the Pine or Hay's inlet area. If anyone knows where they are then please let me know. The area should be thick with them.

Livies as the others have said all through the pine, just need to find a likely spot. As for Yabbies I haven't seen one for years in Bramble bay

Donnybrook is your best bet for Yabbies, bit further north for you to go though..

I get yabbies and live bait right beside the ramp at Spinnaker Sound.
Throw a bit of bread in the water wait a minute or so and cast net over it.
Yabbies are in there too, although after posting this they may become scarse.
But they are also on the other side of the wall.
But by far the best spot for yabbies around there is a little beach at Sandstone Point.
Go up Bestmann Road which is on the right just before the Bribie Bridge and then take the second right, at low tide you could fill a wheelie bin with them.

pull over just before you get onto the bribie bridge bit of a park there .

go west about 500 metres at low tide there are good yabbie banks out the front there

There is a little inlet on the north side of Pine River, about 500mtrs up from the bridges, maybe a bit more.. I was paddling around in my canoe once and pulled up there to cast SPs, anyway, I didn't have a pump, but by geez the ground looked like it was peppered with Yabby holes.

Maybe I should go take a look ?

You can also pick up yabbies at the end of turners camp road just before the spinaker sound marina. But I prefer to hit the banks at Toorbul as they give a better return. You can get them along the foreshores at Sandgate and the banks near where sanderson boat hire used to be but they are very few and far between, a good hours worth of work pumping may see you with half a dozen yabbies.

Plenty of live bait in the Pine, although not many herring at the moment, mostly mullet and silver biddies. Not many yabbies in the Pine or Hayes Inlet, but plenty throughout the Bribie Passage and along the front of Deception Bay. For land-based yabbies around Bribie try north of Godwin Beach all the way up to Cook's Rocks at Sandstone Point. On Bribie itself Whitepatch is a good location with good yabbies from just below the little bridge towards the passage. If you've got a boat there are very good yabbies on Shag Island (the little island and big sandbanks out in the middle of the passage from Whitepatch. The best yabbies are near the mangroves on the northern side. Further up the passage there are yabbies on every bank but the further up you go the stickier and muddier the ground gets making pumping that much harder
