FISHING REPORT
– 04-12-2014
BASS
Cressbrook Dam
has produced a few Bass again this week, soft plastics and trolled darker
coloured hard bodies are working the best, mainly along the buoy line and
through the main basin. Similar to last week at Boondooma Dam, there’s still a
good reaction bite going on, with quality fish taking TN60 Jackalls and
spinnerbaits, cast to the edges, trolling hard bodies in the main basin has
also been effective. Bjelke Peterson has also produced good numbers of Bass
this week, it’s been slightly better than Boondooma, working the edges with
spinnerbaits, Jackalls and Blades has been good while Bass point has seen a few
taken on Blades and trolled hard bodies and down at Moogerah and Maroon, both
dams continue to fish well, Maroon has probably been the pick, with anglers
landing some quality fish on a variety of lures, early morning and late
afternoon have been the best times to try.
YELLOWBELLY AND
COD
Cod and
Yellowbelly fishing is still good around the area at the moment; Cooby Dam has
produced a few Yellowbelly around the buoy line, not just in the deeper water,
but also the banks working back from the buoy line, TN60 Jackalls are the best
option, however spinnerbaits and soft vibes have picked up a couple as well.
Glenlyon has produced decent numbers of Yellowbelly again this week, bait,
spinnerbaits and hard bodies have all worked well, a couple of Cod have been
caught, but they’re still a bit hard to come by. Coolmunda has again produced
good numbers of Cod and Yellowbelly on darker coloured lures, working the old
creek beds and along the wall have still been the best spots to target. Leslie
Dam continues to fish quite well for both lure and bait anglers, with blades and
hard body lures picking up the most fish, live shrimp have been working the
best for the bait anglers, there was also a few legal sized Cod landed on
spinnerbaits, while casting at the structure and in the South Burnett, both
Boondooma and Bjelke Peterson dams have again produced good numbers of
Yellowbelly, in Boondooma, bait and trolled hard bodies have been effective in
the main basin, casting spinnerbaits around the timber and to the edges
throughout the dam has produced some quality fish, while at Bjelke Peterson,
casting reaction lures, like spinnerbaits and Jackalls around the timber has
been a popular method. As for the rivers, the Dumeresq has a bit of a flow in
it at the moment, due to releases from Glenlyon and there are a few Yellowbelly
hitting hard bodies and spinnerbaits from the Bonshaw Weir downstream and the Condamine
River, from Pratten to Warwick has produced some quality Cod and Yellowbelly on
hard bodies and spinnerbaits.
GOLD COAST
Offshore
fishing has produced some small Black Marlin, on trolled lures, out from the
Jumpinpin Bar and out on the 50 Fathom line, Blue Marlin and Dolphin Fish have
provided some fun for the anglers. Inshore fishing has seen smaller Kingies and
GT’s in the Seaway, Jewies at the mouth of Swan Bay at the Pin, Whiting near
the Council Chambers in the Nerang River, Jacks around the bridges on live bait
and plastics in the Coomera River and a few Flathead have been taken around
Slippin Sands on smaller hard body lures.
SUNSHINE COAST
Offshore
fishing has fired up this week plenty of Mackerel and Kingies getting about
most reefs, Coral Trout and Sweetlip at Sunshine Reef and a few Black Marlin
are getting about 5 Mile Reef. Inshore fishing has seen the passage at Caloundra
producing some nice Flathead, Trevelly and Jacks in most of the rivers, the Maroochy
River has been fishing well for Flathead and Whiting on soft plastics and beach
worms, Trevally and Kingfish on soft plastics at the mouth of the Noosa River
and the beaches have produced good numbers of quality Whiting.
