queensland Brisbane River tomorrow 29th may

[chubbstar]

I'm off from work and have an itch I need to scratch, I'm thinking of head over to the Brisbane River for some land based fun.

I've only fished the river by boat, so some help in finding a good land based spot would be a real bonus. Can anyone help?

Anyone want to meet up for a fish?

With spots, depends what you want.. Do you just want a comfortable spot where you can chuck out a livie or big dead bait and relax while the vermin takes place and gives you a chance at a thready or, fish the light stuff for bream, cod ect.. or for flattys.. the list goes on, were you thinking lures or bait?

Would love to join you but have to work.

Some spots I've had success at landbased are:

Under the bridge at fishermans island

Aquarium passage

Pontoon at the St Lucia rowing club

Indooroopilly public pontoon, near the golf course

pontoon under the indooroo bridge

Have fun!

hmm.. Yaeh any rockwall from westend to the mouth landbased, you have a chance of a thready using a livie, and flicking small plastics around close into the rocks should/could get you some bream, cod, moses perch, flathead ect..

not sure how deep mate i've only fished there on the high tide and there is no evidence of a creek at all but google earth shows differently:) there is a rock wall aswell running along the mud flats good flattie country i reckon. might have to check it out at low tide and find the creek:)

[pinkey]

Yeah that little creek could be a gun spot.. wouldnt mind having a flick around there for flattys and bream On sp's and hbs one day.

[chubbstar]

I'll be coming from Carindale. I'l just go have a look at the map.
