Newbie (to australia also)
Hi everyone
I'm new to Australia 3 weeks ago. Over from the uk working for 12 months and want to get to the local fishing spots in my spare time, got license an basic kit set up just after some advice on good locations. Only ever done uk course n a bit of sea fishing.
I'm staying in tecoma and have transport so don't mind a drive for good locations etc also would like a couple boat trips off the coast so any recommendations greatly appreciated
Thanks guys
Shaine

It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them

Also it is best to not try to target too many different species at the same time.

Re: Newbie (to australia also)
All the little creeks in your area hold trout. Even the super skinny stuff. Plenty of lakes in the area to use your uk fishing experience on too.
