First SeawayFishing Maps Released Map 1 Pipeline – Wavebreak
Welcome to the first of 8 detailed SeawayFishing Maps, showing you suggested trolling runs, species that frequent each area and area names that I will be referencing in future reports. These maps concentrate on the top tier species like Jewfish, Giant Trevally, Tailor and Yellowtail Kingfish but also cover live bait species like herring, pike and garfish as well. Bread and Butter species like Bream, Whiting and Flathead are not covered as they can be caught just about anywhere. Use the legend below to work out what everything means. This map may be updated at any time. Any questions or anything you would like added ask me below.

Probably a combination of both, most people are put off by a strong wind warning even though the seaway has fishable areas in up to 40kt winds. I was out there this morning(report coming soon) and the wind did drop off for a little bit, got a couple of nice fish and some other smaller ones. The seaway has cleaned up alot but there is still alot of dirty water coming out of the nerang end..

Just a quick question does anyone anchor in the seaway i have been told not to anchor any where near the seaway you will lose anchors i did once and lost a danforth anchor as it got snagged i was told i didnt have it set up properly with zip ties and not game to try again even with a reef anchor

I don’t but I know some of the others do, ideally, you should not anchor in the middle or east of the pipeline. The most popular place seems to be the south western point of south stradbroke.

Hi Craig
Has anyone been trying the Seaway in the past few days?
I guess my question is are 20 to 25 knot winds too gusty for fishing the Seaway or is it the fresh water that is keeping people away?
I thought the wind might be down a bit early in the morning.
Regards
John
