THIS week Fisho was in touch with Andrew Chorley of Hervey Bay Fly & Sportfishing who specialises in guiding clients on the pristine sand flats around Queensland’s Hervey Bay and Fraser Island.
The Fraser Coast has long been known for its impressive flats fishing, especially among the fly fishing faternity. While its world class golden trevally fishery regularly featured in Fisho back in the 1990s, of late the region has been making headlines for its flats fishing for marlin and longtail tuna.
This exciting fishing is also the subject of a documentary by film maker Tarron “Taz” Jefferys from Strip Strike Productions. As you’ll see in the clips below, including a trailer to Jefferys’ upcoming feature film released on DVD in early 2014, there’s some incredible fishing to be found in the skinny water up Fraser Island way!
Check out Hervey Bay Sportfishing’s website for details on how you can experience this fishing.
