queensland Bribie fishing tips

[creature100]

am wanting to get up around bribie for some fishing as i have been spending quite a bit of time around southern bay (macleay, peel, goat) and it seems to be a bit quite at the moment....anyone got some tips on where to target snapper around the bribie area?

cheers

Click Community, Forum.

Scroll down to Fishing Reports.

Click on Islands & Moreton Bay. There's a thread by Xerebus - Bribie First Launch 1July 07.

Then go back to the Fishing Reports section and click on North Coast.

There's a few recent articles there also.

Cheers

First of all mate welcome to the site!

I am a rookie in that area, but i have caught good flathead in Ningi Creek.

Wait till Jimmybob, Dazza and pcsolution get here though. They are the Bribie guru's.

Cheers.

creature100- do you use bait or plastics?..1 tip i will give ya thou is if the boat traffic is heavy i find the sbnapper shut right down:( ..best chasing em when ya have a sickie;)

[creature100]

Angus...thanks for the warm welcome and the tips. I use soft plastics and have success on them around the aforementioned islands but as i said its getting a bit quiet down there the last few trips so was wanting to broaden my horizons. I ve noticed the effects of the heavy boat traffic in these areas as well so yeah i try and limit targeting snapper to weekdays....clear water and a recent algal bloom or something in the southern bay made for a fruitless trip just this monday gone...only a lonely flounder on board.

cheers

No worries Craig.

Recently off the main beach at Bribie, several Kayakers have been doing really well for Squire/Snapper on plastics. Just sift through the report (North Coast or Isles and Bay) to check these out.

In the passage itself there seems to be god fish around as well. Dazza has landed plenty of good bream lately. And Jimmybob got a massive Grassy Sweetlip not long ago as well.

I have caught a couple of flatties in Ningi Creek on plastics as well, but have better luck with hard bodies in that location.

Cams rocks i have fished at the southern end of the passage as well with excellent results on both bream and squire. These were bait fished though.

Cheers mate.

Craig, mate there is a heap of really good fishing spot around Bribie Island anywhere from the Bridge to the bay for Squire/snapper and with saying that the best advice would be to follow what the other guys have said through out this post and to get out there amongst it!!

Don't believe everything you read mate.. .there's no fish there... haven't been any for years now, so don't bother making the trip up here!

Infact, I think I'll sell my house at bribie and move down to the southside where all the fish are....
