We have a canadian canoe - 3 seater - and have fished in a number of creeeks, rivers and bays around SE Qld and northern NSW. Our latest trip was up Pumicestone passage, Bribie Island. Any other canoe enthusiasts out there?

Yeah mate I have a 15'6" three seater canoe. I have just moved up to redcliffe from sydney and trying to find some good spot's to use SP's. I have travelled to wathumba creek on the north western tip of frazer island about 4 1/2 yr's ago. With a 3.5hp outboard it took 7hrs each way and was over 120km's round trip got some nice spotties up there around late october.
yo sparksy also live in brisy and fish from the canoodle all the time try any marina;s and moorings during winter and the bream will respond to the silent approach.
There are a few guys around that fish from SOT kayaks anywhere from the creeks to the reefs. They are talking about organising a regular monthly outing and I'm sure canoes would be more than welcome.
Some of these guys occasionally post on these forums but mostly use http://com3.runboard.com/baustraliankayakfishingforum.

Sparksy,
Have been canoe fishing since 2001 (and now kayak) and have had great fun. Main locations for me have been Nundah Creek and Cabbage Tree Creek @ Shorncliffe (Bream & Flathead), Coochin Creek @ Beerwah (Bream, Flathead and jacks), Upper Maroochy @ Yandina (Bream, Jacks), Kedron Brook and Jacksons Creek @ Nudgee Beach, Pine River (North & South) : Bream, Flathead and catfish, Ningi Creek near Bribie (Bream, Jacks and Flathead), Wivenhoe Dam (Bass, Yellowbelly, Tilapia and Big smelly Catfish), Upper Brisbane River (near Fernvale etc) : Bass & catfish.
Can't think of a better way of fishing. No noisy outboard motors. Stealth is the way to go!
Cheers,
Gigantor

Hey Sparksy,
The tides are excellent this weekend, at Golden Beach.
I am new at this kayak fishing but have hooked up a few and enjoyed the tranquility at the same time. My fishing partner is my wife and she loves it.
Should be ok for flatties. 8)
paddle fisher was up that way last wekkend and while my live herring died of old age a rather bearded looking smelly fingered man got a cracker on a herring head go figuire and go paddle power.
Hopefully i'll be gettin a kayak for my BD soon, so i'll be up for joining some people out on the water. Can't wait!!!
