Fly Fishing After Rain
Hey Everyone, I was thinking of doing an Otways camping trip next weekend and wanted to do some fly fishing but I heard there is some rain expected.

Land Based Fishing in Port Fairy
Hey all, I’m in port fairy for a week and am looking to do some land based fishing. I brought down my light spin rod and beach rod.

Otways trout
Hi everyone,
I’m planning on heading down to the west Barwon reservoir or the east Barwon up at Forrest to go for some trout. I’m looking for some tips and reports on the area. Also is there good fishing in the east Barwon by the lake Elizabeth campground?
Cheers

Re: Is there Pilchard and mullet near Melbourne CBD
How do i catch them? what size hook do i use and bait? rig? best hooks i find to catch mullet are size 10 or 12 long shanks baited with a small piece of bread or a small piece of squid for something more durable. Usually I use little to no weight. If they're really aggressive you can catch them on ...

Yamashita egi oh q squid jigs
Hi guys,
Has anyone had any success on the yamashita egi oh q live search squid jigs? If so what colours? I've just found a site that has them on sale and im hoping to get a few. Also, does the rattle actually attract squid?
Cheers
