Townsville flooding

No one likes the damage flooding does, but good rain invariably fires up the fishing on the longer term.

“A drought on land means a drought at sea” is the mantra.

As I type this the Townsville region (an area dubbed the “dry tropics”) is on major flood warnings.

Tassie trout rivers take a hit

WFS Admin

Dry weather, growing demands on water and seasonal cormorant plagues hit Tassie trout rivers hard in 2024.

The good news is that many of the lakes still fish well.

The secret is to do some research before choosing a location, as it is usually easy enough to find out which places are fishing well, and which are a waste of time.

Do you fish Tassie waters? How are you finding the year so far?
