Brunswick Heads, New South Wales

HIGH TIDE SADNESS TO GLADNESS! Saturday morning on high tide….I wasn’t expecting much today but I wanted to take my friend Jeff fishing. So we met up at the Boat Harbour and made our way through the hundreds of Camper Vans, rubbish and people. The water on the other hand was super calm and clear. And thanks to my polarised sunnies I could see right to the bottom. First cast in…imagine my surprise when a pan sized Flattie showed interest in my offering. However it was short lived and after 3 attempts he decided that it wasn’t for him and he moved on. Sadness. A little Stingray kept me company but not much interest otherwise so we moved across to the pier. Where after a short while Jeff wrangled in a nice 26cm Breambo shortly followed by me with a barely legal one. 🐟 We changed spots to further up river under the highway bridge but sadly no takers. We did however see a magnificent Osprey dive bomb into the water and snag a fish…only to parade it past us in the air as if laughing saying ‘Suckers you can’t catch one’…🤪🦅 We called it a day at 10am with the sun becoming borderline obscene above. 🌞🔥 A nice little morning outing with company and we chased the skunk away! Have a beautiful weekend everyone! Tight Lines my friends 🐟💪🏻

FriYay FishDay! Quick little outing after I finished the paperwork. Didn’t really hold out much hope in such a gloomy day…but the clouds sorted and the wind died down and I got myself a solid 35cm Breambo under the Jetty at the Harbour. Plus a bonus little Bream to boot! I hope everyone else gets to duck out for a quick fish too. Tight Lines my friends 🐟💪🏻

FEELING EELATED! Well it’s been a hot minute! But I made it back out into the wild. Can’t keep a fisher girl down! ☺️ Stunner Morning with incoming tide! We’ve just had a few days of rain so the water is super dirty. I had no expectations. Three different Spots! Spot No. 1 under one of my favourite footbridges…5 min in - a solid tug. Unexpected. Another 5 min later I watched my line slowly being taken for a walk…I let him have it for a few seconds and then pounced. WHAM….he took off line in mouth. Fishy was all over the shop…I was thinking an Eel maybe….and I was right. He came in fairly easy. The hardest part was getting my lip clippers into his gob. But hooray - I worked up enough of a sweat and then moved on to the next location. 🥵 Spot No. 2 Very chill and peaceful and minimal nibbles at the river…but still managed 2 small Bream! They must have been hungry. 😝 Spot No. 3 Headed to the Harbour and it did not disappoint, even though I almost lost one of my favourite Servo rods due to a snag and then the top part of my rod coming off. Slightly stressy but all good. I cast under the jetty and the first taker was a fat legal Breambo at 25cm. I then wandered up the jetty a bit and cast between the boats but no action. I headed back and thought I’d have one more cast right underneath the bottom part of the jetty and no sooner had the line reached the bottom it tightened and an almighty CHOMP occurred. Dragged out this beautiful 32cm Bream to finish off my morning. Amazing and feeling so blessed I could make it out today. Tight Lines my Friends! Stay safe ☺️

Good flatty put up a great fight

GOT ONE! Pickings were slim today but I’ll take it. Fished incoming tide at Brunswick Heads. Not many hits and far too many nibblers. Hope you all had more luck than me 😬 Tight Lines my Friends! Stay safe ❤️

Brunswick Heads is hot. I’m not going anywhere! Another 11 bream this morning. After some tailor or Jewys tomorrow.

Class session today. Caught 15 bream between 2 rods, 6 big enough to keep 🎣
