Flathead, bream and trevally were on the bite in Weyba Creek while whiting, bream, chopper tailor and trevally were on the chew in the Munna Point Bridge/Culgoa Point area and in the Woods Bays. The Woods Bays were also a good option for mangrove jacks and javelin fish as Bob Jeynes from Davo's Compleat Angler (below) found earlier in the week. Bob worked that area after dark with Gastronomic Shad Tails, catching and releasing flathead, trevally and grunter bream but it wasn't until he switched over to green Gladiator Slim Jims that he boated four mangrove jacks, releasing all but the 1.8kg specimen pictured. He was using a Gladiator Elite rod, a Shimano Stradic 2500 reel and 2kg Bonzai braid.

Mangrove jacks were also responding well to River2Sea Gastronomic Shad Tails at the Sheraton Bridge and trolled hard body lures in the Noosa Waters canals around dusk.
Gillian Mitchell and husband John (below) weighed in a trevally and a mangrove jack in the Tewantin Noosa Bowls Fishing Club competition yesterday. Gillian's jack, which tipped the scales at 1.8kg, won her the prize for heaviest fish.

At Lake MacDonald, quality bass were caught and released around the Botanical Gardens Reach and along the Bubble Trail while saratoga were on the prowl in Borer Creek. At Borumba Dam the better bass were found along the rock walls in the main basin. Spinner baits accounted for a few good size saratoga in the Yabba Arm.
