Gold Coast Fishing Charters: Fishing Spots

Once you have decided that you want to experience a Gold Coast fishing charter you may have questions like “where do we go?” or “how far out do we go?” This brief article will answer these questions.

There are of course numerous options of where your Gold Coast fishing charter will take you. The options are only limited by the captains knowledge and expertise. So your first port of call may be to find out a little about the background and history of the captain/s of the charter boat company that you are speaking to.

Now the most frequented fishing grounds visited by Gold Coast fishing charters lies in the general area from the Gold Coast Seaway and out to the 24 fathoms mark offshore which measures about 5 nautical miles out. This is an area of rocky reefs surrounded by sand and gravel. The reefs have lots of species of deep water weed and coral. Because these reefs attract large schools of bait fish, it becomes a hunting ground for many species of scavenger and predator fish species.

At around 10 nautical miles out to sea, at a depth of 36 fathoms, there are parallel ridge systems running north to south adjacent to the coastline. Beyond this at around 15 nautical miles out to sea, the same ridge systems occur at 50 fathom depths. Most half day Gold Coast fishing charters do not go beyond the 24 fathom mark.

It is worth noting that most Gold Coast fishing charters will take you out to the 24 fathom depths where reefs have already been heavily fished. If possible to catch more and bigger fish, target a charter company that will take you to the 36 and 50 fathom marks respectively.

Going out to the 50 fathom reefs and beyond, is the best location to catch large migratory fish species as they travel south with the warm deep blue water currents during the summer months. For fishing enthusiasts who want to target the larger fish species, I suggest you ask Gold Coast fishing charter operators of this particular option.

Okay you say you want to go fishing, but the truth be told, you want life to be as comfortable as possible. If this sounds like you you may choose to fish the protected waters of the seaway and estuaries. Here sandy and mud flats become a hunting ground for many species of target fish.
