Reedy's Rigs' new breakdown of Western Port whiting is part biology lesson, part on-the-water guide. The bay's juveniles never come back once they head offshore at four years old, which is why a true 50 cm fish is rare and why bag limits hold the population. Bait choice, sounder reading and side-scan all stack to one final non-negotiable - belief.
A self-shot 24-hour beach challenge on the Western Australian coast - one rod, mullet frames as burley, twelve hours on the sand - turned into the Fishing Scotsman's best mulloway session of his life. Six hours in and he had a 110 cm jewfish on the sand. By the time he packed away the swag at midnight he had four mulloway, three tailor, two sharks and a catfish.
Hodgie the Barefoot Fisherman has filed a self-shot Northern Territory barramundi season opening that bypasses the chaos of the public boat ramp. Instead of joining the queue, he walks the bush with a Samurai Infinite rod, a Jamie Flat bad-breed propbait and a clear preference for surface lures - and quickly draws the wrong kind of attention from a curious crocodile.
Lyn Davies's spring 2026 day on the River Towy outside Llandeilo is a clean, single-rod fly-fishing piece - 10-foot 4-weight, duo rig in the morning, a swung spider phase that doesn't fire, and a late switch to a dry-fly olive emerger that finally puts a cracking wild brown on the bank as the wind drops.
Cavy Fishing and his partner Sam have published a feature-length recon to a remote Northern Territory sand island chasing shore-based tuna. The pair beach a boat, camp rough, swat march flies and sand flies, and use the new 40-gram fast-sinking Long Caster stickbait to put two monster tuna on the sand from a beach neither had ever fished.
A homecoming trip to Lake Fork delivers a near-miss seven pound bass on a yet-to-release Gizzy Glide and a 19-crappie haul on 1/8 oz jigs, with Lake Fork Guy reporting the best lake conditions in years.
After three days of walking empty beaches around Albany, the Northern Addicts crew finally gets onto a thick West Australian salmon school in the wash at Salmon Holes.
A four-rod dipsy program at the tip of Long Point produces six trout and salmon, a personal best Lake Erie rainbow, and a first ever coho for Averie Rose ahead of the May trolling window.
An Exmouth-based commercial fisherman details a South Coast NSW striped marlin run he ranks against Cabo, with 25-fish days from trailer boats and 140 kg-class fish.

Matt Allen finally drops Core Tackle's Fin Swimbait after two years of holding it back, catching a 3 lb 3 oz largemouth and a rare 3 lb 7 oz smallmouth on Lake Uchi while laying out the cast-and-wind retrieve, half-ounce head and Spike-It colour tricks behind the bait.
A wade-only mission into a remote mangrove creek hands AdventureSquires a 54 cm jack on the ZMan Goat — his first-ever fish on the weedless surface bait — plus repeated barramundi boofs, wasp-nest drama and a stark crocodile safety warning.
