WHAT’S NEW • Fisho highlights the latest tackle, gear and accessories.

GOING OFF IN WINTER • Slower currents, favourable conditions, and a wide variety of game and reef species make winter an ideal time to head offshore in South East Queensland this winter.

EAST COAST BLUES • Mysterious and tough fighting, the eastern blue groper can be found along suburban rock platforms for those willing to put in the effort.

FISHING AFTER FLOODS • While flooding is often an unwanted natural occurrence, it does provides some positive side-effects for our rivers and fish.

OFF THE SHELF ROD COMPONENTS • When choosing a new rod, don’t just check out its “action”, it’s also worth paying attention to the components.

HIGH ON ADVENTURE • The best kind of adventures occur off-the-grid and there’s no better way to reach these spots than a helicopter.

SEEING & CATCHING • Advanced sonar systems are changing the way many of us fish, as Mick explains.

FISHING MATES • Finding good fishing mates makes a day on the water more fun, and in most cases, more productive.

KAYAKING FOR GUMMIES • Fishing from a kayak shouldn’t stop you from catching consistent numbers of gummy sharks. And according to Tom, Westernport is a perfect kayak destination for targeting these popular fish.
