Anglers Advantage

Hey everyone, a busy week this last week with the weather turning it on and the fish cooperating for good measure with a few species being caught and some offshore action beginning to happen on the inner reefs at last with the Snapper finally making them selves known. ( See offshore fishing reports )

 Wednesday we had a trip up Noosa river for a change with Micheal and Margaret from Euroa in Victoria out with us for a morning session with Margaret getting off the mark early on with a small Flathead to start before kicking in to gear on the Jewfish in the middle reaches getting 3 nice school Jew along with a Bream, a Trevally and another Flathead for the session, Michel landed a hard fighting Trevally in the middle reaches for his effort.

Thursday afternoon we had Jim from Caloundra along with Les from Melbourne out with us on Maroochy River where Les was into the Flathead getting 6 for the arvo along with a pike but Jim caught the fish of the session, a beautiful hard fighting 55cm Maroochy River Jewfish.

Friday morning we had Chris and Tim from Ipswich with us on Maroochy river again with Tim racing ou in front on the strike early on and ending up with 3 species for his effort consisting of 1 Trevally, 2 Bream and 4 Flathead. Chris got a good strike going late in the session and landed the fish of the day being a 47cm Tailor which dove hard on several occasions before falling to the net, Chris caught 6 fish in total with the tally being 1 Tailor, 1 Bream and 4 Flathead.

Hey everyone the River systems have been firing in the last week and with the air temperature climbing a bit making for some pleasant days on the water.

On Wednesday we had James and Will from Wooga Wooga out with us on Maroochy River for a fuul day with what started out as a wet morning but cleared nicely before we got a downpour later on in the evening. Will stared off the mark and during the course of the day managed 3 Flathead, a Grunter Bream and 3 Silver Bream with James getting a 42cm Flathead along with 4 smaller Flathead, a Silver bream and coming home late in the evening on our Jew spot with 2 school Jewfish!

 Thursday we had Linton from Broadford and Paul from Seymour, Melbourne out with us for the afternoon session on the Pumicestone Passage which saw Linton off the mark early catching 3 Flathead before Paul stole  the session catching a magnificent 70cm Specimen  which made some ground searching runs before falling to the net but released unscathed. Paul also took 2 more smaller Flathead, a Silver Bream and a first for me a Blackfish on a soft Plastic putting on some aerial displays for good measure.

 Friday morning we had James and Elva from Bribie Island out with us for the morning session on maroochy river where James had a good session on the Bream catching 5 for the session with a nice 32cm specimen falling to the net while Elva was quite happy to sit back and enjoy the tranquil settings of the river.

 Hey everyone a lot of wet and windy weather in the last time since I wrote with scattered charters here and there as a result with a lot of fresh water in the systems shutting down the upper reaches and leading in decreased visibility in the lower reaches as a result leading to limited success on the water as a result also.

First up on Wednesday we had Ray and Sandy from Toowoomba way where we targeted the lower reaches of Maroochy River in windy showery conditions proving difficult to produce fish with a few missed strikes before Sandy nailed a hard hitting Trevally with Ray eventually getting a small Flathead as we pushed up the system to only find dirtier water before calling it a day.

 Thursday afternoon we had Geoff from Newcastle out with us on Maroochy River again as the wind had abated and with the push in tide in the afternoon the water clarity had improved which saw us take 5 Flathead as well as Geoff getting a hard fighting 47cm Jewfish along with a Silver Bream for the session.

  Friday morning we again had Geoff on board joined by Penny and Lyn from Melbourne which saw Lyn miss a nice fish straight up in the lower reaches before catching a Trevally and Bream for the morning which saw Geoff also catch another Jewfish along with 2 Grunter Bream and 2 Flathead for the morning.

 Saturday morning we had  Andrew from Brisbane, Joe from Caloundra and Tony from Burleigh where again in the morning session we had the run out tide with brown dirty freshwater leading to hard work finding fish which eventually saw Tony nab a nice 29cm Silver Bream and Andrew nab a Flathead in the middle reaches before we moved back down the system with results unfortunately not improving.

 That’s all to report this week I’m afraid guys and gals, stay tuned with hopefully seeing the last of the rain the systems should hopefully recover bringing the fish on the bite and we hope o be getting things kicked off with the offshore work chasing tunas and mackerel on the spin gear, Until next week Tight Lines And Screaming Reels To You All…..

 Hey everyone another week gone in 2010 and with the schools back next week hopefully the water traffic will quieten off leaving us fishermen with the waterways to our self and settling the fish back down.

We have to give Nick an honourable mention for catching a massive green Toadfish! Steven unfortunately drew a blank for the session.

 In the Tuesday afternoon we had Phil and Wes from Melbourne out with us on Maroochy river with things being slow in the lower reaches and with the wind building we pushed up to the middle reaches and targeted the deeper holes to try for an elusive Jewfish with 3 coming to the boat and Phil coming up trumps with a 47cm specimen before catching a nice 5cm Jewfish in the late arvo.

Hey there everyone,lots of rain in the systems this week with all those storms knocking about,luckily we escaped the worst of them on the coast but we did suffer with the rain and the upper reaches are particullary dirty.

 First up this week we had Marty o Connor from Rosslare Hbr in Ireland along with his girlfriend Ingrid from Dublin who fished Maroochy River Wednesday morning on the run out tide with Marty bagging his first Flathead on a Soft Plastic along with a Bream. during the end of the Morning session the tide began to push in with the bluewater clearing the lower reaches making for a better bite session.

Phil was first into the Fish with a Silver Bream with James getting the same shortly after. Phil also came through with a 46cm Flathead and a Grunter Bream. John bagged himself a nice Tailor and a Whiting with James also getting more Bream in the boat.

 The rain put paid things until Saturday when we had Ben from Sydney and Nick from Melbourne out in the Pumicestone Passage where the boys had a cracker start nailing Trevally first up along with Flathead then Nick cracked a beautiful 46cm Mangrove Jack and Ben nailed a couple of school Jewfish.

  That’s about all for this week guys and gals,here’s hoping the rain stays away and the systems recover quickly,the Pumicestone Passage is the pick for the week as it will clear a lot quicker with the tidal flow. Tight Lines to you all,Brian from Anglers Advantage The Sunshine Coasts Number One in Soft Plastics Fishing Tours.

Hey guys and gals,just a quick post to let you all know that we’re back in town and it’s back to business.

  The river systems have taken a bit of a pounding with all the rain that we’ve been getting and the upper reaches have turned to that murky brown with all the run off from the land. The lower reaches are still pretty clear however particularly with the run in tides.

 Saturday Morning we were out on Maroochy River with Michelle and Leah from Newcastle with Michelle bagging the 1st fish,a nice 30cm whiting with the girls also picking up some Flathead but no Bream. Sunday afternoon we were back out again before the storm hit with some action on the Poppers with whiting and also a few Bream on the Plastics.

 that’s about it for the moment Everyone,will keep you posted as to what happens in the next week though as i look outside the rain is steadily coming down. Tight Lines and Screaming Reels to you all,Brian from Anglers Advantage The Sunshine Coasts Number One in Soft Plastics Fishing Charters.

Hey guys a better one on the water this week with only a couple of windy days later in the week making it harder but all in all it’s settling down a bit and the systems are clearing up nicely with water clarity good throughout the whole systems.

 Monday had us down on the Pumicestone Passage with John Coghlan and his son Chris along with Lee Sanders with all the boys being from Brissie direction. Lee caught the first fish early up boating a small Flathead down the lower reaches along with John shortly thereafter though it was a bit quite so we pushed up the system a bit where Chris had a couple of good hits but dropped some nice fish before eventually bringing in the catch of the day a 67cm Jew fish which fought hard for 10mins before coming to the net.

 The boys caught a few more fish between them with John getting a 50cm Flathead and Lee getting the strangest catch of the day a 65cm Long Tom!

  Friday had us up Maroochydore end again where we had Shane and Grant from out Toowoomba way for an all day-er joined by Matt from Brisbane for the Afternoon session.The boys had a good session in the morning and the rivalry between Shane and Grant kicked up a notch in the arvo with Grant getting the first 4 fish to the boat but Shane kicked up a gear in the arvo to eventually win the round 9-8 thought i believe it would have been a draw only for a bit of rod handling by Shane when Grant was on a fish! (i saw nothing,only going by what I’m told). The comradely was good and a fun day was had by all.

 Matt also boated his first fish on Soft Plastics and came out on Maroochy River again with us on Saturday Morning managing to bag a nice Grunter Bream which hit hard as well as a 45cm Flathead. Saturday arvo had us cancel a Charter with a Thunderstorm brewing.

  Sunday Morning we were back on Maroochy River with Zac and his ten year old son Liam from Whallya VIC where again there was good Rivalry with Liam taking out Zac 7-2 with the boys getting some small Flahead,Grunter Bream and a keeper Flathead.Mick from Brisse and his Wife Debbie came out in the Arvo where Mike bagged his first Bream and Flathead on Plastics.

  That’s about it until next week…..Will keep you posted, Tight Lines and Screaming Reels,Brian from Anglers Advantage The Sunshine Coasts Number 1 In Soft Plastics Fishing Tours.
