About Brisbane Water

Anglers know Brisbane Water as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of New South Wales, Australia. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Brisbane Water is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques

• For Japanese meagre

  Target Japanese meagre during low light conditions or at night, and work lures slowly and methodically near structure.

• For Bluefish

  Bluefish are aggressive; use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs and retrieve lures at a fast pace to trigger strikes.

• For White trevally

  White trevally often school, so locate the school and work it thoroughly. Vary retrieve speeds to see what they prefer.
