With prevailing southeasterly winds at 15 knots this weekend, once again fishing will be tough going. However, the Burnett River is still going strong, especially down in the Port area and the rock wall out at the entrance. The amount of sizeable bream that are being caught is astounding.
Now that Bundaberg is experiencing a few cooler mornings, some species as barramundi and mangrove jacks will slow down. You will still get these fish, but you will have to work harder for them.
Hope everyone enjoyed their Easter/Anzac break this year. It was great to see that heaps of people got out and made the most of the fantastic weather conditions around the Bundaberg area over that period.
Hope everyone enjoyed the Easter break this year. The weather around the Bundaberg area over the past week or so was just magic with light winds and glassed out seas. Some anglers have reported that it was the best it had been for years.
Hope everyone enjoys the Easter break ahead. It was good to see that most areas around Bundaberg received some welcome follow up rain to top up the rainwater tanks and help the farmers.
With predicted 10-15 knot east-south-east winds for this weekend around the Bundaberg area, we might be fishing the protected estuaries and local impoundments.
With a bit of freshwater in the systems from recent rains, a change of tactics might be on the cards.
The weather conditions around the Bundaberg for this weekend look reasonable at the moment. With the winds expected to ease on Saturday, all forms of fishing should be worth a go.
