queensland goodna fishing

[doss]

hello,

hey im just writing a report up about goodna fishing me and the lazyboy went there thiis afternoon we got a 28cm catfish on live shrimp then when sun was going down we still had lots of liveies (shrimp) me and lachlan made a rig up with like 4 hooks on it and we hooked up a threadfin salmon it took the live shrimp and ran 4 like 20seconds then it had a jump it can out about 50cm and only half the body was out of the water. then he spat the hook DAMMM!!!!! and then we left

but tomorrow we might go down there again 4 most of the day getting bait then try 4 a threadfin around dark again, the rod i bought from the swap meet is greaat getting a few nice cast with it.

and angus the lazy boy was sayin that u want some fish speices from the brizzy river is that true or did i misunderstand him.

cheers doss

Hi doss, good to hear ur givin ur new rod a bit of stick... bad luck on the missed hook up.

mate i wouldnt be using a wire trace. Personally i would use fluro-carbon leader. you can pick some up from kmart and bigw for about $7 otherwise, get the good stuff like black majic for around $23 at anaconda

it was nice to meet u and lazyboy at the swap meet.

looking forard to more reports

cheers

i was shocked when my rod(2-4) went crazy. I have 14lb fluorocarbon. Is that to weak?

[taib]

i think 14lb is fine for general fishing however if you are specifically targetting bigger fish, heavier gear will help. There ar guys who catch threadies on 10lb. Set you drag right, u will be fine.

I use 10lb shimano power pro braid with 12lb fluro carbon. Handles bigger fish with no sweat.

cheers

[TheLazyboy]

Today i was using my light 2-4 kilow with 10 lb fireline with 40 lb mono. but tommorrow im gonna use my 6 to 8 kilo combo

[taib]

good luck for tomorrow. hope you boys catch a few. make sure to take some pics

cheers ty

good to see the new rod getting a work out.

[Joel Eadie]

hey mate are you using fresh water shrimp? or prawns? i always thought about giving fresh water shrimp a go in the salt

[simsbearing]

Joel I beleive there are many species of shrimp in the Brisbane river however the Goodna area does have a certain species that seems to flourish.

They are fresh water to brackish shrimp however they live in the Goodna stretch.

I have caught some very large catfish on them at times.

At Goodna, i get shrimp and prawns. The shrimp work good on some freshwater fish. i have caught bream on and Flathead. Atm i am getting some big shrimp and thick. better then last summer.

[Joel Eadie]

oh good to know, thanks guys

[Fishguts]

fluorocarbon leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[TheLazyboy]

I think carbonfiber would be a waste at goodna cause the water is that muddy they would see normal mono. would the fish see mono u think fishguts?

[Two Kay Gee]

I live in Springfield and i am unsure where u can fish in Goodna ??

I have caught many fish at Goodna on 'Black magic supple', which is mono.

Two Kay Gee you can fish at the goodna boat ramp which most people who fish at goodna do or along the park there are tracks that have some nice little spots for some nice catfish and bream and probable some bullshark.

[doss]

hey we use sprimps and prawns the lazyboy and i do as well as chicken liver thats worken better then the live bait get nice catfish on them and on the srimp we are gettin a few bust off so maybe as fishguts said i might use some fluorocarbon and we might turn those bust off into some real action. got my first fish on the rod a 50cm catfish a bit of fun and it was nice to meet fish guts and the young fella down there and got a nice idea on shark fishing
