queensland Fishing Brisbane River Sunday

[Jords]

Planning a raid to a pontoon on the school's rowing shed for a fish at westend on Sunday. I have seen a guy fishing there and he caught a 1.5m ish bullie on live herring and had a few hook-ups. Any ideas or hints??

Take care, wear a knife, and dont stick your hands near any shark you catch!

Also dont leave a mess or you will be on detention for a month!

so is this the grammar schools pontoon?

wouldnt be to dbad I wondered how the wider parts of the bris river fished

How awesome would it be to get a feeding frenzy then throw in a decent sized popper and reel it through that would be mint and easy pickings

The pontoon belonging to school is locked almost 24/7 (apart from when we r rowing)

The place i plan to fish is like a small concrete jetty with some stairs either end.

The last guy who tried fishing there while we were rowing got blasted like you wouldnt believe for \"atracing sharks\" like they werent already there.

It is just down from the west end markets

you think that they would want the sharks in their

\"our rowers are so tough they train with sharks\"

or at least it would make them paddle faster

dont you think?

Its a good place to fish for bullies. I normally go there myself but havent recently. someone told me that the crabs are starting to get comfortable there so you might hook up some if your only using dead bait. where as live bait you have more of a chance of a bullie and also away from the crabs. You can also go north abit, not far from the rowing club. where Pauls Milk is. around that area, my mate told me his uncles been catching really decent size breams. so if theres no luck near the club then go up to the factory area and have a go.

If your really bored and still need to catch a bullie then head to kangaroo point and park where you catch the ferrie. take a little walk and theres a seating area that goes out the river abit. very nice spot to fish since theres a seating area and also a concrete area thats been railed. easier to cast your rod. Ive been catching afew bullies there for quite afew years straight. Have a go. you mite like it.

Enjoy your fishing and have fun. Even when you dont catch anyfin, enjoy the moment of peace and quite.
