OFFSHORE – Well until this awful wind had arrived the fishing offshore had finally picked up. the next few days is not looking good but lets hope after xmas we get some good weather.
Coolum reefs and arkwright shoal have been producing good numbers of spotted mackeral. Around old woman island theres been spotted mackerel and schoolies. Also on the inner gneerings taking floated pillies and trolled small lures. Snapper, sweetlip and the odd coral trout on murphys with some guys reporting lots of bite offs fishing the bottom which could be big mackeral. Yellowfin tuna to 12kg between 5 to 9 mile off mooloolaba and around the blinker on trolled lures. cobia, red throat, parrot and mahi mahi out on the banks.

ESTUARY – Plenty of muddies throughout the rivers but better bucks coming from the upper creeks. trevally on the top of the tide between marrochy river mouth the the motorway bridge. flathead, school jew and jacks in the bli bli stretch, mouth of petrie and coolum creeks. jacks in the upper reaches of mooloolah river and flathead and bream around the mouth.

merry xmas to you and your family

stay safe and happy fishing…….. ben
