queensland easter at perigian

[kriso]

hey, Havent fished at the north coast and staying at perigian with the inlaws over easter( so will be fishing as much as i can!) just wondering how it goes latley and any bait tips, not the smartest guy when it comes to fishing so wondering what species are floating around this time of year!

Might get an early tailor dawn and dusk, certainly will get dart during the day, probably flathead, and the odd bream. All in and around gutters.

Pillies for the tailor, Eugaries for the rest.

ask angus if u get a chance for some special tips, his old man grew up there on the beach.

Mate there are several options you have all in and around Peregian.

Beach: As Andrew said Bream, Whiting, Dart and flatties are all readily available. Eugaries (pippies) are readily caught on the beach if you know the trick. Have you ever caught beach worms? If not the local tackle shop sells them for about $3 for 2 (these are meter lonf worms by the way). Just fish the gutters and you bound to get a fish. I hope you havea surf rod though as Peregian beach is a rough one!

Creek: Stumers Creek is close by as well for lighter fishing. Its a thin creek colored by tanin so it looks like tea. This creek is great for the usual creek suspects, Flatheas, Jacks, Cod and Good size bream.

Rocks: Point Arkright at Coolum is good for tailor and the odd jew. Id use pillies.

River: If all else fails the Noosa river is only a few minutes north. This river offers loads of options from sand bars, pontoons, bridges etc. Expect everything!

Picture: Some nice Peregian Beach Bream. Caught at the end of Pitta Street. There is almost always a good gutter there. [img size=333]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/Peregian.jpg
