queensland Coomera Again...16/07/08

[bretto]

Headed down to the upper coomera river to chase some mulloway landbased and managed one small mulloway and a bream as well asgetting two hook ups and unfortunately losing the fish to the old bridge.

Was good to spend a couple of hours under the full moon.

Very nice Bretto thats 34cm more Jewie than I've caught.Lures or bait?

oops jumped in to quick

[pinkey]

what a nice looking little jewy.

[bretto]

Malcom they are always there on the lead up and on the full moon on a building tide so it is a good place to have a crack at them. The two bigger fish hooked up were unstoppable on the 4lb. Saw one take the gulp at my feet and it looked like a decent bass but it was dark and couldn't be sure.

[pinkey]

How far uprivier are you? just wondering how far they would go up the brisbane river..? Or is water clarity a problem?..

[bretto]

I was pretty much as far as the salt can go. There is a dam about 50m from where these fish were caught and separated by a small weir and there is a heap of fresh coming over and the water was dirty but as the tide comes up clarity gets a bit better.

Thanks, good to hear.

the little jewie looks awesome. Thanks for sharing your tips again mate.

ps - you've got your trademark "Blue Steel" look again lol.

[nuckle]

is that a cut on the jew? one i got lastweekend had a similar cut on it aswell.

[bretto]

Not sure mate. I think it is just a piece of grass

[Saffa]

Mate what part of the river do you catch them in? I would love to give them a go. Also can you get there by boat? Are there any boat ramps near by?

[bretto]

I catch most fish there where the weir is that separates the salt from fresh and it is very snaggy and filled with many boulders so boat access would be a risk but there is a lake area at the end of the river that holds most fish and there is boat ramp there as well
