FISHING

OFFSHORE: Quiet conditions, rougher seas and larger swells keeping fishin average. Some mackerel around Mermaid Beach and Palm Beach. Trey jew, amberjack and snapper around reefs 50 fathoms out. Offshore conditions expected to remain in an in-between phase over at least the next few weeks.

BROADWATER: Whiting north of Wavebreak Island, bream of the rockwall and around bridge pylons, sea walls, as well as tailor. Bream, whiting and flathead all still around, with flathead expected to pick up over the next few months.

FRESHWATER: Mudcrabs along the banks. Flathead beginning to appear in the rivers, but are expected to move out of the rivers and towards Jumpinpin and the lower Broadwater in the coming months.
