Flooded River

[Enjoyfish1]

Is it just me or am I thinking our river needs some time to clean out before fishing again? Anyone fishing and catching anything at the moment?

[Malcolm]

I'm thinking the same thing and haven't tried either

[nadders]

tried under indro bridge and around oxley creek (at the mouth and up and down the creek for a few km) and did not even get a bite, this was on sunday..

got plenty of bites at the mouth last night though, and a big fat bream in the boat

[Mak]

prob is more rain is coming over the next few weeks

was cast netting aquairim passage the other day

wasn't worth a pinch of salt hey

too much fresh, they go hiding in the mangroves and such,

night time fishin should be ok newstead to the mouth

lower regions with be full of catties for a bit i think

[Enjoyfish1]

I hate bloody catties. The last thing I want is more of the buggers in the lower reaches!

[Death Ray]

Yep,

Think it's gunna be a while before much is biting in the rivers. I took the train from Nerang to Bris and back today (not by choice). Brisbane River is by far the most affected. Can't image there being much biting around the city stretch by the colour and amount of rubbish in the water.

Also noticed that there seems to be a lot of erosion between the train bridge and the Southbank bridge (whatever they are called) on the north side of the river. Lots of mangroves roots exposed etc... Or is that how it normally is?

Hope we get some fishing in soon. Probably only good for catties and rays at the moment.

Yeah its a dam shame to because holidays are just starting

[Keechie]

just happend to be the week before holidays:(. It was acutally that bad that a creek that i have been trying to fish (fresh water) has now completely changed its shape, there is steep drop offs, big banks of liek gravel now even rapids. Hopefully the fish are still around there and havevnt been washed down.

Yeh, might have to travel a bit for the first week or two of the holidays to get onto fish consistently:(

Hopefully the Goldie and Sunshine coast will still be going well:) Dunno, tho... Did they get as much rain as the Brisbane area?

[flatty_catcher]

they got hammered last night around the seaway ,nerang, coomera 70- 90 - 120 ml.

not sure if they got it that heavy further south
