Re: Anyone fished Brighton recently?

As planned, fished yesterday, from 8:30 or so till about 4. No action until about 12 (although we saw a flattie or two around the rocks, on the side where the boats are - couldn't tempt them with bait or SPs). Then we moved down to the pier part, before the rockwall, the side with the boats. Caught ...

Anyone fished Brighton recently?

I'm going out with a mate on Saturday, aiming to get out early (morning high tide is 9:30). Think we'll try the baths/pier, and then if there's no action there, we might try the break walls down south a bit towards Sandringham. At this point I'm planning on pretty generic type rigs - running sinker,...

Question: Laverton Creek, Skeleton Waterholes Creek and Cheltenham Wetlands

G'day all, Still on a quest to bag some flatties with soft plastics, and while I know I probably really should target the more common areas, Google Maps has me fascinated by a stretch of coast south of Altona. No one mentions this area, and it isn't in any of the books, and I'm wondering if there's ...

Re: Land based flathead near melb - help a newbie out!

G'day all, Went out yesterday, started at Werribee, moved to Altona Pier and ended at Williamstown... Came up with nothing! Was using soft plastics, even though I'm new to it, pretty sure we were doing everything right. Certainly varied up the technique and changed lures a few times. FWIW, no one el...

Re: Land based flathead near melb - help a newbie out!

Cheers guys, this is some great information. Thanks heaps. Has anyone been to the west bank of the Werribee river and the bit of beach over there? Looked tempting the other day when I was out there, and google maps has got me thinking about it. Not sure what access is like, but, seems as though the ...

Land based flathead near melb - help a newbie out!

G'day guys, So this is my first post (but I've been lurking for a bit now.) So I'm pretty **** at fishing, but I'm serious about turning that around. Been doing my reading and research, and I've decided I wanna start by targeting flatties, most likely on soft plastics, cause that's gonna be the most...
