Brisbane River pike??

[mangajack]

Evening all, does anyone know where I might find some numbers of yellowtail pike in the Brisbane River from Colmslie to the Port?

Seems I only ever find them singularly this season.

I'm looking for about 6 live baits per trip.

I can't help in that range, but there is plenty at Mud. Are you tossing little lures or a Sabiki jig ?

A bit of both actually....just can't seem to find the schools like usual.

I will try again tomorrow near the old powerstation where they used to be a good supply spot.....haven't found 1 there yet this year.

Hi @mangajack, 

If you can get up to the jetties around Northshore you might find a few, but no guarantees. Using sabikis seems to be the best way for me.

Thanks Hamish.

Heading into the river Sunday morning for some more jew.

I’ve also seen mid sized herring working well recently, put a couple on the hook. They’re easier to jig than pike and more abundant too. Good luck.
