Fishing Victoria Forum

What a weekend for fishing out of Barwon Heads, yes tons of boats but weather and fishing made up for the inconvenience. Saturday I took my time knowing Ocean Grove boat ramp would be hectic at first light so I waited until 7:30am and put the boat in with no wait at all. I started trolling in 15m of...

The less wind the better prawning.
Salmon fishing you want northwesterly and calm sea.
There has been salmon in the lake around Kalimna jetty. They are generally smaller in the lake
You have a chance for a kingfish around the highway bridge and the footbridge at this time of year
