Andrew and B...

In this episode of The Lure Fishing Project, I’m joined by Nathan Butcher from Butcher’s Bite to break down how he targets mulloway — or jewfish — on Lake Macquarie.

Episode 222 takes us to the Tweed River for the 2026 Daiwa Bream Series Crush City Tweed River Round, held on 1–2 August.

The Hobie Fishing Series qualifying round at the Glenelg River, South Australia, was held on 7-8 March 2026, and it produced one of the closest finishes of the season.

Forster has a reputation as one of Australia's premier bream fisheries, but this year's Hobie Kayak Bream Series round proved that even the best waterways can throw competitors a curveball.
Despite favourable tides and fish activity predictions, 65 anglers were confronted with one of the toughest Forster tournaments in recent memory. Big fish were almost impossible to find, the bite windows never really materialised, and even the e...
Hobie Week continues with round three of the Hobie Fishing Series, held at Wallaga Lake on March 21 and 22.

Sometimes the best tournaments are the ones nobody sees coming.
When forecast conditions made the Swan River unfishable, Hobie made the bold decision to relocate the event to Scamander at the last minute. It meant weeks of preparation instantly became irrelevant. Competitors who had travelled from around Australia suddenly found themselves launching on a river many had never seen before, with no pre-fish, no established game plans ...
