Fished Mission Beach from 6:30-10:00. Beautiful morning out there, and I was almost disappointed because I’d wanted to try some new rain gear I’d gotten :lol:

Instead, it was all sunshine and literal rainbows.

The current was a little strong at times but certainly manageable/navigable. Once I ...

Nothing out of the ordinary to report from Mission Beach this morning. Pretty clean water, little bit of a current as the morning high tide came in, very minor grass/kelp that mostly came off the line as it hit it.

6:30-9:00ish yielded 6 or so perch. Slower day than previous outings but the perch ...

The mornings are starting to get a little chilly!! Hard to feel the bait as I set up the early casts 🥶

Shorter hours for me today since the bite died earlier than yesterday, and I used that experience to just shut things down instead of holding out hope for any last nibbles. First cast was in the ...

Thanks again for the continuing report! I don't know if you've tried this...I like to take the lip from bigger mussel, just the lip, and thread it up my hook, like a worm.

My Mom Froze them and when we went Surf Fishing, which was often, we would cut them in half with scissors and hook it on ...

I got out one last time before this storm rolls through but was already seeing some of the effects at Mission Beach this morning between 6:30-9:00.

Wind and strong currents to the north made fishing feel like a bit more of a chore than I’d like for it to be, but I did still manage to reel in four ...

The past two weekends I've been going out with Tubefly . I've been exclusively sight fishing for Carp, but Bill doesn't have the patience and vicinity-fishes with an indicator. I got four carp last week and six yesterday, and lost a whole bunch more. But more importantly, I had the most shots on ...
