I can't help sorry but would love to read a report on how you go as I think we'll take our camper trailer up to Woodgate sometime, seems a lovely spot. Meant to be good crabbing for both sandies and muddies - not sure about August but would be worth finding out 🙂 

Hi Northside Chic
I've never been there, but here are some websites that may help you out.

Hi everyone. I’m headed to Woodgate Beach in August for a couple of weeks with the family. I haven’t been there before. We will be land based fishing and I also have a kayak. Can anyone give me any tips on where to fish and if I can pump yabbies etc. Also can you only get to Theodolite creek by 4WD? Thanks everyone 👍

Hi guys
 
I was just wondering if anyone had been fishing over at Bribie Island lately.  Does anyone know any spots where I might be able to take the kids to catch some whiting/flathead?  Also any suggestions of where to drop a crab pot.  I don't have a boat but can take a kayak out to drop the crab pot.  Thanks guys

Hi,
Had a bream comp over there about a month ago.
We did well early on topwater lures and shallow cranks over the flats south of Skipper's Canal on the Island side when the tide was high. This stretch usually fishes ok with lures at high tide and ok with live bait for whiting and bream towards the bottom. As for using your Yak to go drop a pot, there are small groups of mangroves across the passage towards the mainland, that hold crabs if you have the stamina to get there and back.
Alternatively, you can fish the gutter out the front of Bongaree and south towards Red Beach, using yabbies you can pump just south of the museum. This stretch is hit hard for yabbies, so it can be hit and miss. Use your Yak to similarly go drop pots at the mangroves on the mainland side if you can reach it, or just past the gutter on the island side, await from casting range. Just be careful not to put it in the main boating lanes.
Good luck.

Thanks for your help

hello northside chic
I have been fishing over at bribie island recently on the surf side and got plenty of whiting and  dart. A good spot to catch some whiting that I know of is at woorim near lions park which is a semi-surf beach which fishes good on rising or falling tides anytime from 6am - 12pm and if kids get bored fishing they can swim on this safe beach (never ever been caught in a rip here), use beachworms live or preserved on a short shank hook with a 1ball or 2ball sinker. I don't know anything about crabbing there but probbley the Bongaree jetty might have some.
hope this helps
