queensland Plenty Of Fish At Sandgate

[Daryl McPhee]

As I was heading up to Sandgate to talk about the history and environment of Moreton Bay, I thought it would be great to take the kids up to interact with some of the finned inhabitants of the Bay. You can't just talk the talk, you've got to walk the walk. Fishing was easy even though the tides weren't perfect. We fished for a couple of hours on Friday and Saturday evening and Sunday morning off the foreshore. The tailor were fairly plentiful and while no big fish (best was 42 cm) we only caught one that was undersized. Overall we got a good mixed bag of tailor, dusky flathead, bar tailed flathead and bream. The best bream was 39cm.

That's awesome mate. Well done. I'm disappointed I had to miss the talk. Do you have dates for another one? 

[Daryl McPhee]

No exact dates yet but it will sometime in late June.

Thanks mate. I'm very disappointed i couldn't make Sunday.

Wow! 39cm bream off Sandgate foreshore is pretty special. Well done mate.

[Daryl McPhee]

It was a good fish particularly as it was caught very late in the morning. Most of the really good bream this time of the year are caught at night along there. It was short of Max's PB but it was in top condition as expected for this time of year.
