Fishing Victoria Forum

Donuts for us today and got soaked into the bargain at the ramp after an early finish to fishtivities. Took the bigger Rae Line 186 out today as I had my better half on board and spent a fair bit of time p%ssing about through the front hatch trying to anchor up whilst protecting the gel coat - not a...

Mr smokey - agree that a 'button' would be very useful addition - but saw an invoice for fitting an electric winch for the same model boat on Boatsales site last year and it totalled $4k, so it will be a bit of Heave Ho for the foreseeable future until I can decide on whether to chop the Rae Line an...

Balmy conditions forecast for Mon last so MCL it was with my trusty offsider and his ordinarily reliable Bluefin Mangrove Jack boat. Piscatorial foreplay complete i.e meet up and pie in Sale and a bit of 'bird watching', we expedited down to the MCL ramp on what was to be a glorious day. On arrival ...

Coupla visits to MCL (and what feels like the other side of Gippsland at times as its a 300km round trip) during the last week. Saturday, nice weather forecast (sunny and calm) so fished 3 up in the offsiders 4.5 Bluefin open deck boat (so a bit of a squeeze) in the usual channels and 'hotspots' - w...

Always up for a challenge, so got up early (for me at least) and motored over to the Fraser Island spot this morning, hoping to bag out on KGW for the first time.

Re-tyred. Nice catch and informative report . Thanks for that. I may venture out across the bar myself one of these days. Never mind the choice of bait I think the key 3 words here were........

How'd Yer Go? Well seeing as though you asked- Fished Thu ,Fri, Sun (+Mrs P) and Tues chasing the KGW once again - as cant help myself offering neighbours yet to be caught fish whilst walking the dog around the local estate. Pretty steady fishing mostly in the Shaving Point area in 1.3m using either...

Being a rather ' Fair ' minded individual and being very aware of the 'Fair Go' and Fair Dinkum' uniquely Ozzy colloquialisms, I thought it Fair time to update the KGW thread. So with all that in mind I thought it Fair enough to drop my wife off at work on Saturday & for that matter Sunday and head ...

Offsiders Bro over from the motherland so a menage a trois it was for todays exploits afloat. Though he was not a first time visitor to these shores, I was keen to make his visit as memorable/ Ozzy as possible, so the day started with a pit stop by yours truly at the Stratford bakery (en route to th...

Sunday morning once again (not that the dog knows what day it is) and walking the Fort King jetties at 10 am . Met a boat coming in with a few Taylor on board. Visitors from Mel homeward board the following day and no KGW to sample. So being me I gave em the good gen (spots) , and promised to drop o...
