This weekend looks like we might get a bit of sunshine and maybe a few showers, winds should stay around 15-20 knots. The upcoming wet season is going to be a big one so I recommend taking any chance you can get to get out on the water before the rain sets in. It is also expected to start a lot earlier then normal and we might see another cyclone this year maybe even before Christmas.
Now this week there has been a lot of reports about the dam fishing very well with the bad weather, I took a drive out there this afternoon and there was 10 boats in the water at 5 pm. The Barra are taking surface lures, so a bubble pop or a skitter pop will produce fish. They have been caught around the rock wall at the dam late afternoon.
There are not many crabs around the river but the King Salmon have been on the bite, They should start to drop off with the smaller tides tho. There also been a few large Barra being caught up river and Grunter being caught around the Oyster banks.
The rock walls still have schools of Trevally around early mornings and late afternoon. There taking live bait as well as metal slugs. There have also been Salmon around the outer rock walls from Able Point. And also Wolf Herring being caught on metal slugs or small lures being trolled.
The island have been producing a few Coral Trout and Mackerel, but not many people have ventured out over the past week with the weather still not letting off. I never heard anyone going out to the reef, And if you did i bet it was a horrible day.
Im going to be hitting the dam this weekend see if i cant land my next monster Barra and i hope to see you out there. Till next week happy fishing
