[justjack]

i dont fish the goldy much but this week im down here for work and have brought the rod.... not after any top secret spots but would like a general area where im in for a good chance, any bridge or wall work better then others? ill be landbased and my home base for the week is on the beach at surfers so was thinking the nerang, also anywhere where i can castnet some bait, thanks people i dont usually like to ask these things but would really not like to waste the little time i have down her

Just try around the bridges, capri comes to mind have a look on google earth im sure you will find some good spots to try and there a few park areas to fish back towards the bridges have fun.

Bundall Rd bridge on the top or bottom of the tide as anytime else it pushes thru pretty quick, livies head over to buds beach. nice sandy beach.

Chevron Brdige western side,council chambers,Cascade gardens,Convention Centre,Bond Uni.
No real secret spots there mate but some areas easily accessed landbased.
Find any canal with a dead end and a park and you should be able to find enough bait for a session.
Plenty of mullet and herring around at the moment.

thanks guys fished the eastern bridge at isle of capri tonight for 4 hours and didnt lose a bait.... maybe try another area... is anywhere around the casino good?

yer 1st floor, third table on the left, killed em there one night.

As said chev isl west bridge. sandy beach close by for bait.

you could always try around where the cruse boats tie up down the river end of cavil Ave.

Any of the bridges behind the casino are good, try sunshine blvd, theres plenty of parks to walk along for LB anglers. Theres a park up volante cr, mermaid wtrs with a good rockwall as well. hard to recommend any otgher spots, but the rockwall behind the council chambers is good.

Chevron and Capri bridges really only good if you have a boat.

cheers

Also have a crack at Monaco st bridge. same as wayno said, slack tides. Also try different bait (butterfly-fillet dead mullet/dead herring/ox kidney) if the livies aren't doing the trick. Sometimes dead baits outdo the livies.
