Somewhere to fish

[Jords]

I have just found out that a friend of mine is equally obsessed with fishing, has a 5hp rubberduky and lives near the brekky creek. Can anyone suggest where i could fish either land-based or not too far from the shore(ruff water)

All help is greatly appreciated.

thinkin of chasing bream, flatties, trevally, MJ, cod and maybe some small bullies capable of being taken on light line etc. etc.

Cheers:)

First up you gotta work out how your going to fish out of a rubber duckie without sticking a hook through it!

I'd reckon any of the major creeks on the river, Norman, Aquarium Passage, Breakfast ck.

:woohoo: HAHA....That would be a sight for sore eyes....

If i were you i would be taking the shore option cause i wouldnt like to be heading back to the ramp rowing with 1 arm and bailing with the other....lol:lol: :lol:

deploy your baits with the 5 hp rubberducky fish off the shore like you suggested and at the places that feral sugested

Being that is 5hp im assuming its more like a Zodiac and not a little pool toy? Is the material flimsy plastic or tough canvas like material?

In any case, i agree with the OzTrav, use the boat to deploy shark baits but otherwise fish from the shore.

Any of the afore mentioned, as well as Newstead Pontoon, Camerons Rocks, Pinkenba, Kookaburra Park, Sherwood Aboretum would be great for this.

Cheers.

It doesn't bother me about the type of boat. It is like a hard canvass one similar to a tender. I caught a Spanish Mackeral up north around 8kg in a friends tender fishing around an island we were overnighting at in their boat.

If its not registered, make sure your mate is driving it, or your mum and dad might get another call from the water police! (It was you in the no light escapade wasn't it?).

Once you are feeling comfortable in the boat, being an inflatable it should be safe enough for the main river, you might get a wave over the stern, but it should stay afloat. Just keep putting the nose into the waves as the party boats go by.

Different Jordan.

I have learnt how to make minimal mess of wash from rowing single sculls along the brisbane river with the city cats - i managed to get a catty today around the 50cm mark today during a regatta - i tied a line to the railing on our pontoon and when i came back the line was tight.

I was thinking more of a bream/flattie spot where we could sit in some medium water(we have a good anchor) and bait fish or chuk some lures at the bank or some pylons etc.

Good idea - as long as there is no fishing gear abord - We do somethin very similar in the Rowing Shed's 15hp 3.55m tinnys - tons of fun
