Brisbane Northside - Getting Started.

[Glenn M]

Hi All,

I'm Glenn, my youngest son and I have been getting into fishing lately (I fished a fair bit about 20-odd years ago). We have a couple of decent rods and some gear from family members.

It is such a great way to get outside, (and get the young ones of their tablets and xbox!) and enjoy some time together.

I have been looking around this forum and it seems like a really good place! Plenty of advice and good vibes.

The young fella caught his first fish the other day, nice little winter whiting  He was so excited and he is now 'hooked'!

Anyway, I will probably be hanging around here a bit. Happy for any advice, tips etc on how to maximise the fun times fishing!

Regards,
Glenn

Hi Glen,

how old is your youngest? Fishing is a great way to spend time together. I love taking my eldest out who is 6, but my youngest is going to be a keen fisho. He turns three in a few weeks & loves the boat.

Welcome Glenn. Are you targeting mainly estuary or in Moreton Bay?
