This is generally a magic time of the year to get out and wet a line around the Bundaberg region.
At this stage the forecast for this weekend is looking good, but please check the forecast the day before you’re intending to head offshore.
Finally, the weather forecast for this weekend looks favourable for the reef fishermen to venture out to the outer reefs off Bundaberg.
Luckily enough we had some magic days around the Bundaberg area earlier in the week, and it was great to see that quite a few boats made the most of the calm conditions, catching some quality reef fish and the odd billfish on the grounds out a little wider.
Well, another week has passed and unfortunately there will be no offshore fishing around the Bundaberg area, but the local rivers and creeks are all fishing really well.
The rivers are full of bait such as sprat, mullet and prawns, hence the bigger fish haven’t been too far away.
With the cold weather around the Bundaberg area lately, winter is certainly in full swing, and so are the snapper and bream.
A prime location for snapper is the Cochrane Artificial Reef, approximately three nautical miles offshore from Elliott Heads.
Well, it’s that time of the year again! The annual VMR Bundaberg Family Fishing Classic promises to be bigger and better this year with over $60,000 in prizes, and three boat, motor and trailer packages to be won.

Well, let’s hope this weekend’s weather forecast is better than last weekend.
Well, it looks like the weatherman is predicting a wet weekend around the Bundaberg area, with different models forecasting up to 20-30mm. Hopefully this rain event comes off, and helps the local farmers and tops up a few rain water tanks.
We saw a week of reasonable weather this week around the Bundaberg area, with the light winds we experienced this past week and it’s given an opportunity to allow plenty of boats to head offshore. Although the tides were big on the back of the full moon, some quality fish were caught. Areas suc
