GT Fishing Noosa

[James Clain]

I am going fishing at Noosa and I am pretty keen on getting a GT. are there any techniques, spots, tides, lures, baits and Gear I should use. My Spinning gear is pretty light I have a 2500 Penn Sentinel (8.8 lb of drag) on a 6 kilo Shimano aqua tip rod with 20lb line. I already have some medium large poppers and stick baits around the 4 to 5 inch mark. I also have a Shimano Tyrnos 30 wide but I a sure that i don"t need to overgun like that?

I will be fishing in July over a few days.

Any tips and ideas are welcomed.

can't tell you much about Noosa specifically but during winter is the time to get small to medium trevs in the estuaries

you need to find areas with bait current and some form of structure like channel markers, pylons etc..

I've had most of my success on hardbodies in the 40-70mm range, the zerek tango shad 50mm, jackal squirrel 68mm being a couple of successful lures but anything with a good tight shimmy type action generally works

I find the retrieve to be more important trevs like maximum movement lots of twitches/rips during the retrieve often the more erratic the lure moves the more fired up they get
