Fishing Victoria Forum

Hi all,

Whenever I've up the Murray River, I've put out a shrimp net and caught some to use as bait. I'm only used to catching them up there, but can I catch down in Melbourne? I've never tried and I'm just wondering if anyone has.

Check out Gumtree, a few people are selling them on there. Some servos stock them here and there as well. I mostly use Nightcrawlers because they’ve given me the most success in the past.

Hi all,

I've read up a little bit about this lake. I know it's shallow and weedy, but holds Bream and some Mullet. Has anyone fished it lately? I want to know if it's worth getting down there or stick with the Nong for Bream.

Hi all,

I've had a little success in Maribyrnong before on the River there, but I want to fish the lake there (Edgewater Lake). Has anyone fish here lately? What's been biting?

Hi all,

I was looking on Google Maps and found a spot in Williamstown that could be alright to fish. Just asking if anyone has visited this spot (in front of Gloucester Reserve), and what have been caught in this area?

Hi all,

I’m planning on heading up near Warburton this week for a bit of fish and I’ll be targeting Trout. I’m either going to the Yarra where it goes through Millgrove/Warburton or Watts River in Healesville. Has anyone had success in these areas recently? I’ll be bait fishing and using a few lures.

Hi all,

How's the fishing along the Murray river around the Barmah Lakes/forest? Has anyone been catching anything recently?

Hi all,

Will head down to Werribee one day this week and I'm after snapper and flathead. Just wondering which location would be better for these fish, Werribee River mouth or the Wyndham Harbour rock wall?

Hi all,

Going up to Lake Eildon this weekend for a camp and fish. I'll be on the Delatite arm on the inside to where the free campsites are, so curious if anyone has caught anything around here recently? I'll probably be staying around the Ewarts Campground.

Thanks for the reply about the rego and licence, that was the main question. Yeah the Anaconda one doesn't look that great but I've found a boat someone's selling new on Gumtree for $120 called INTEX Seahawk 2 (google it) and it has pretty good reviews. Give me your thoughts on that one.
