    Sharking.

    I fell over when I saw this..
  2. Gidday lads. As stated in another post for prawns go to Cabbage tree boat ramp head North to Logan river entry and try around there or further north around the power lines ets. One problem at the moment is the Chocolate milk coming out of the river systems. Also when I lived at Jacobs well I used to prawn around the moored vessels near ASR tower..Give it a go.

    All fishers

    To all Fishers of AFO have a Merry Xmas and a safe New Year. All the best. Bull sharks are on the chew in the Logan..
  4. More than likely Kat it was the food as I think with the deformed tail might of made it hard to compete with other Dolphins but it seemed happy enough !! 

  5. Ellicat  if you were there looking at this Dolphin you could not help but feel sorry for him so we had some Tailor fillets we gave him so I suppose that's why he hung around for so long..

      They're pretty smart. Maybe this is what he does to supplement his diet due to his disability.

  6. Hello fishers. This Dolphin whom I might say was extremely friendly but had a deformed tail. He seemed to love human company so we just sat on the rocks as he played in the water. We kept an eye out for Bull sharks as we saw a couple earlier in the day. After about two hours he or she moved off into deeper water.
  7. Gidday Elli 31. When I was soldier a lot of years ago now one of the bases I was stationed at was Balcombe army camp. We used to fish off the rocks at Mount Martha and got a lot of Ling fishing at night. We fished with Bonito as we were after snapper but got ling. It may still fish like it did years ago.. All the best
  8. Ellicat. Was there couple of weeks ago. Bream along rock wall and tuna in channel but boat needed. If Dolphins in area forget it. Fish up near the baited shark drumlines also for good flathead. Incoming tide best for first two hours. Few areas further up near Flinders beach good for Whiting when the netters are not there.. Good luck.

      Thanks for the intel, Buzzard.  Hopefully I can turn it into a report if this wind will go away for a few days.

  9. Back on now after being away for a while. My son took photo of myself and my two sons in law. Big sea bream and longtail tuna from the rock wall behind Cosy cottages..
  10. There are some lovely Bay Prawns to be had around the powerlines and towards Rocky point.. About to tuck into some. Plenty for everyone there as all were catching them. Unfortunately there are those on the water that just don't have any manners at all and cast there net right over the top of yours etc. But give it a go anyway.
  11. Fished the area around Jacobs well and Behms creek the weekend ,got a Bream and some Threadies but not much else. Dropped a nice Mangrove Jack so the area is fishing okay. Plenty of mossies and sand flies. Prawns seem to be the best bait and the first 2 hrs of the run in tide. You can get some good bait at the Gem and tackle. Buzzard..
  12. To reply to all those comments.. The shorts even saw a Test match at the Gabba in the 80s..It did taste not to bad ,succulent white flesh similar to a Ling or other Cod like species..When I hooked this fella it did not put up a fight at all as I thought I was dragging in a lump of weed. I know there are some of you elderly gents like me who have fished Whalleys gutter, that's where I caught this bloke plus a couple of Grunter. I am on my way to the Well this weekend.Leaving from Behms creek and try for some flatties or Jacks..Buzzard
  13. This Stargazer I baked on the BBQ and made up a curried prawn sauce as I did not know much about there eating qualities but it did taste pretty good but on its own  a mate said they were a bit rough.

      Hi buzzard

      Sounds good, I am still yet to catch one but thanks for the advice/opinion. 🙂 

      Cheers Hamish

  14. I thought I would put this up even though it was a number of years ago. I caught this Stargazer while fishing for Flathead where I lived for some 22 years at Jacobs Well. It used to be great fishing there years ago but things have to change. I never heard of anyone catching anything like this since. Cheers Ya'll..
  15. Fishaman that is similar to the haul I got off double island point. Is that a Tailor I see in there?Well done...Buzzard
  16. Fished Peel the Australia day weekend let you fishers know Tuna were on the chew but the men in the grey suits were there also. Lost most of the tuna to bull sharks and the very fast blacktips. Unable to recover much in the way of Longfin tuna..
  17. To all you Fishers. Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year..

      Cheers, Buzzard.

      All the best to you too.

  18. This was on my mates 25' boat but I believe they do run charters in that area. Next stop is the 50's off the Gold coast when this bloody wind drops...
  19. Ellicat the rig was a bottom basher Paternoster with about 12inches between sinker and between the two hooks but when there on like this you could use just about anything. There was a medium SOUTH TO NORTH drift .
  20. Here is a mixed bag of fish like Snapper ,sweetlip, tuskies, and pearlies taken about 8 ks off Double Island Point few weeks ago now. Weather was a bit windy but fishable. Used pillies and squid which they gobbled up pretty quickly so you had to be on your toes...
  21. Hey Drop bear..Are the Logan and Albert clubs looking for new members. I have retired and looking for someone to go fishing with..Cheers
  22. I fished Wivenhoe dam over weekend in between the storms we were not supposed to have. Only throw backs were caught and mainly Aussie Bass. We did get some large Redclaw which we cooked up and ate whilst holding the tent on the ground. I am saddened to hear of the Death of the Caretaker chap I was speaking to on Saturday during one of the storms whom passed away in a fire last night on the property. RIP old mate....
  23. Hey all. Has anyone fished Wivenhoe lately and what lures have been used out there. Might go out with my Kayak in 2 weeks as I have been overseas for a while. Great to get some info...Cheers Buzzard
  24. What is the fishing like at Hastings point this time of year. Going down in two weeks..I will take the Kayak as well..Cheers
