Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.
Practical Caloundra advice on walkable land-based spots, tide timing, and small lures for whiting.
The segment frames Caloundra as a straightforward land-based fishing stop, with easy access from accommodation to the beach, estuary, canal systems, and jetties.
A practical yellowbelly chat about pressured dams, changing fish behavior, and the details that still matter.
Cooby Dam and Crestbrook Dam set up a practical look at yellowbelly fishing in southeast Queensland, with Jason Ehrlich of Hot Bite Lures offering local knowledge on how to draw golden perch from water that has seen plenty of pressure.
A patient tripletail piece that turns close observation into practical fishing sense.
The episode takes a patient look at triple tail and why they are easy to miss unless the eye is trained for them. It stays practical, pointing to surface movement, a flick in the water, slowing down near likely structure, and making blind casts around logs, weed, and other cover…
A practical, gear-smart barra session with useful thinking for impoundment anglers.
This episode gives barramundi fishing a grounded, practical treatment. It moves across Kinchin, Timbra, and Peter Faust, and each impoundment gets its own shape of advice rather than a one-size-fits-all answer.
Practical Conjola flathead talk, with lure-making detail that rewards patient anglers.
This episode leans into practical Conjola flathead talk, with the host working through what the local system gives, what changes, and why an early session matters.
A Foster topwater flathead lesson that shows how a different approach can pay off in clear-water estuaries.
This repost returns to Foster for Russell Babacule's topwater flathead approach, and what makes it worth a listen is how plainly he does things.
A practical bream yarn that swerves into an unexpected South Australian bass story.
Andrew Deeth's chat starts with a simple fishing problem and keeps returning to it: how a kayak tournament champion reads bream water, then notices when the place begins to throw up something less expected.
A shore-based coral trout lesson that turns reef access and conditions into practical choices.
Andy Thompson makes a useful case for coral trout without treating them as a boat-only target. He keeps the focus on land-based options such as island camps, headlands, and inshore reef structure, then ties that to tide, shelter, water movement, and lure choice.
Boston chatter with a running start.
Faith, grit, Scripture, and hard talk.
Recovery talk with the rough edges left in.
