where to take elderly parents to catch whiting (4.2 tinny)

[myself62]

My parents love whiting so I want to take them somewhere to catch some, because they aren't young I don't want to take them to far, It has been a long time since I have chased whiting.

Is the mouth of the Brisbane river still good for it?

Best rig set up and bait?

Or am I better of driving to Redcliffe and fishing there? if so, where should I boat fish?

[JarrydA]

I havent targeted them much around here, but anywhere there is sand flats is a good start. Best bait, live blood worms by far.

Nerang river at the goldy. Send a pm to 'youngy', he might be able to help

In the Brisbane area the flats at the mouth of Lota and Tingalpa Creeks are a known spot for Whiting or if the weathers good you can head out into the bay to areas like the Pelican or Amity Banks.

Head up to the pumicestone passage. Plenty of yabbie banks out from donnybrook/toorbul/ningi and plenty of whiting all through the passage!

Try Jacobs well in the main channel. Best bait live blood worms live yabbies or peeled prawns.

thanks guys, I was thinking more close to the north side area

e.g. mouth of bris river, redcliffe, scarborough etc.

Try from the mouth of the Pine River up near the Hornibrook bridge, round to clontarf and to margate.

Mouth of the pine you will find some, I have some big hauls of winter whiting from out of the caboolture river/Deception bay over the years, havent heard if they are there recently tho

[Ricko69]

Mate as stated in earlier posts the mouth of Pine river and the mouth of the Caboolture river have some real good sand banks that people are always fishing for whiting on.

Good luck with it I think it is great you are taking the olds out with ya. I would give anything to be able to take my parents out for a day on the water. May the weather be perfect and the fish willing for them

Try hays inlet we have been catching hundreds the last 6 weeks.

Best at high tide right up in line with the green zone marker from the chanell to the port bank. We have just been drifting until we find them and then try and stay close, buy worms from the bait shop at clontarf rip off at $8.00 a packet but if they catch you a feed its ok we have been buying two packets and catching 30 to 100 in as little as an hour. If you want a feed of whiting you cant go wrong but it is fishing.
