Reef fishing is a common fishing charter experience on the Gold coast where anglers use heavy 60-100lb handline techniques to target such prized eating fish as coral trout, red emperor, etc. At times the crew will help you trail a ganged pillie (small baitfish) for spanish mackerel, which is a great light tackle sportfish and excellent on the chew as well.
Reef fishing is not a style of fishing that suits every one but gives the angler the best possible chance to land these superb fighting and tasty fish – the absolute best way to extract the reef dwellers. Not to mention that these reef fish are absolutely delicious. Just inquire with the charter, in most cases they will help clean the fish to prepare for the barbeque or restaurant.
If you have never tried reef fishing before then Reef fishing Gold coast is the best place to try your hand at it.
