queensland Bribie Island beach

[natang]

Hey guys,

I have been fishing Bribie for years but mainly on the calm side and have always done really well.

Since getting into 4wding the last couple of years I started fishing the surf side and in particular up around the beach camping areas and have had no luck but a few Dart. I've tried pilchard cubes like I normally use, bloodworms, Yabbie's. I've tried soft plastics and also metal slugs. I mainly fish the run in as that is what I do on the Bongaree side..

Not sure whether it is me or whether there just is not much there. I've spoken to a number of people and they all say the same thing.

I'm not after spots but more so pointers as to surf fishing etc. I've done a fair bit of surf fishing down at Fingal and fraser with great resutls but Bribie I always seem to get a donut.

I find it to be hit an miss as well. It does get pretty flogged by the netters

Stay posted to Nigel's reports from the bait and tackle.

I've always caught a feed. Pippies are my favourite as the get smashed by the dart.

Maybe that's why there's no sharks either. I mate shark fished there a fair few times over a 3 month period for only a few small 6ft bulls. It's a shame as it's a great looking spot that's close to home compared to other locations we fish.

STKE Dart is all I seem to catch which I don't mind they are great in curry! ..

Hi Natang

Regarding the surf fishing at bribie i usually go there once a month or so and have caught many legal whiting (25cm+) as well as heaps small dart between the surf club and skirmish point. I usually fish fresh sandworms on a #8 mustad bloodworm hook and a 6LB fluoro leader 2hours before and 1hour after low tide and 75% of time i get good results + i have also found March till May the best time to fish there.

And that is my experience fishing the surf at Bribie but i hope it helps

curranboy99 thanks for that. I used to fish the same area and Red Beach as well and got the same but since getting a 4wd I have been heading up the beach away from everyone. Also used to fish at the end of 8th avenue.
