Rock wall at mouth of Brisbane river

[harrystrybos]

Hi Guys

A nuber of people tell me there is good fishing on the new (or is that old) rock wall at the mouth of the Brisbane River. Anyone know of this place and where it is (ok, just dont't tell me it is the mouth of the Brisbane river:))?:S

hate to say this harry but it is litteraly the mouth of the river on the south side of the river after the cranes and docks there is about 3km of rock wall then moreton bay this would be the new rock wall however you need a boat to fish here theres no fishin of the bank however on the north side of the river there is the "sunken wall" this is good from a boat but can be walked from pinkenbar boat ramp this is several killometres of rock wall mostly above the tide and you can walk and fish here of a little further east near the sewage treatment plant there is the pipeline to the refinery the tanker which pumps crude to the refinery then a grass padock you can walk across then a small spot with a few mangroves and a submerged rock face which drops into 50 ft of water this can be fished land bsed but can be tricky very good in a boat however not in a strong southerly

hope this helps but the rock wall is at the mouth of the river if you drive out its the last land you will see would be anothe r way of putting it

I know the rock wall on the Sth side of the river, I know there is a keep clear zone of 30 from the ship docks. Does this rule still apply to the rock Wall?

No mate you can fish the rock wall from your boat just not supposed to fish on the rocks

[faulked]

i think there may be a 30 m exclusion zone but its not normally acted on as long as your not on the rocks they leave you aLone normally

I've only caught small Whiting at the "new" wall:(

I've got onto some good Cod, Bream and Rays at the sunken wall though.

do you know where Bishop Island is? thats it!

There is a 30m exclusion zone from all ports where international ships dock in the river. You can fish as close as you like to the rocks but not on them.

I've only fished the rock wall a couple of times , a few small tusk fish and squire:)

[Mark80]

You can get real good cod out there as well. The ledge out there is good in winter for snapper. Have caught plenty there and have seen snapper well above 60cm caught there.
