Aussie Finch Forum

One of my other hobbies is getting in the boat every weekend and going for a fish in the Broadwater and come home with some yummy fish

Does anyone else like fishing here

Will upload some pics soon

went for a cruise on the Broadwater to Stradbroke Island couple of years ago, very nice

Been to Qld several times on holiday....great place the grandkids still talk about the theme parks and hint and wanting to go back....

I use to live in far north QLD in Cairns and i use to be a diver and collect marine fish, it use to be a 2 to 3 day trip every week and we would go out into the deep water at night (300ft) and catch red emperor and naniguy, but that was 15 years ago, haven't done any since

Love salt water fishing and used to fish a lot around Wisemans Ferry NSW , sadly not much salt water here and even though we have a beaut river running through town you wouldnt go there without a big stick in hand LOL

Here are some pics of the fish we caught.

a good days catch there Steven, full bellies for all involved.
Havent been fishing for years myself. after working on the tuna boats in port lincoln for a few years as a commercial diver & deckhand, recreational fishing has lost the shine it used to have

Some nice fish there Steven, you can't bet fresh fish

Thanks Mick, Greg. had them for lunch today can't beat fish and chips.

i like river fishing.My wife manages a bait and takle shop so i could go out on charters anytime,but not interested in offshore fishing.

iam more of a river man myself these days . love catching black bream and rainbow trout. even better catching redfin perch over here there a feral species ur not aloud to chuck them back. but dont seem to have much to fish these days...pete
