First Coomera trip

[Leeroy]

Moved about 200m from the Tallowood Rd ramp on Coomera River a few weeks ago and yesterday was the first trip with a mate and my boy Maitland. 

Mainly had a look around and my lordy is she a big system loaded with every type of structure lot different to Nerang and it's going to take a while to get a few spots worked out.

Boat ramps a bit tricky solo especially on high tide. 

Flicked plastics at a few spots including the rock bar near the god awful Candyland.

Good spot no wonder it's known for big jacks.

No fish but good times and exciting to work out so many new areas.

Nice one Leeroy, at least you got out for a fish. How would you say it would go with a paddle kayak in that area? Too much tide to be able to fish easily?

If you mean the rock bar probably pretty hard but the rest of the area would be ok. Lots of jetties upstream and downstream from the ramp and upstream you get a couple of small inlets that looks really shallow might be OK for a yak but.

Sanctuary Cove across the river which had some weird pontoon graveyard bay that would be really good in a yak.

And obviously all the rock walls and Marina. So many spots.

Being only 200M from the ramp, I'm gonna say you'll have a lot of it sussed in no time. Sounds like plenty of structure to target.

I only noticed that ramp a few weeks ago, I launched from the end of Coleman road, you can fish some good mangroves and head back into the Coomera that way.  Yet to land a jack but I know they're in there!

Been pretty busy at work only been out a few times. Bream and flatties on lures near the north arm mouth is about it.

Although I did tie on a new lure the other day and trolled it about 100m before getting smashed by a jack. Lure gone. Bugger.
