Weekly Sked - 04.05.2011

Luke Fallon from Kekoa Sportfishing Adventures with Archer barra

What a week Luke Fallon from Kekoa Sportfishing Adventures has had in the Archer River on Queensland's Cape York. Fishing is improving as river levels come down. Fished for 5 days last week with over 350 barra, two over a metre, several in the 90's and 20+ in the 80's.

Ken Brown on Brisbane Sport Fishing Adventure Club's Megumi is getting some great fishing in off Cape Moreton. One day late last week they went 4 from 5 blue marlin at 500, 400, 350 and 280lb. They pulled the hooks on a smaller fish about 150lb.

Seaprobe Charters has had two great days fishing on the Gold Coast after the weather cleared. A half day on the weekend resulted in 27 teraglin coming on board off the 36's. And Gavin backed it up before the storms yesterday with a significant catch of jobfish and a good mixed bag for reef fish but it was lite on snapper.
