Yep 28. But hardly anything on them at that size. 35cm plus are the ones you want

Carrum or Mordialloc is closer to me but does not look like many marks or structure close to shore. I dont mind being a few KMs out but being in the middle of the bay in a tinny does not appeal, I like to play it safe.
Ahh righto. Ive never actually heard of it or seen it on my gps before.

Black rock is a great spot. So is mordialloc
Mornington is a good location too mate. If you need some spots let me know.
Cheers

Yea I totally agree with you.
These days when I catch one just size I let them go. Usually only keep the low 30s ones and up.

By the way, is the minimum keep size for pinkies 27 cm?
Thanks mate. I certainly tried to get some decent shots this time around.
I'll keep trying in future but I need better quality cameras this one im.using isnt that flash but does the job
And yeah 28cm legal length. But 35cm.plus is tbe better sized ones tbh

yeah seems to be the hot spot for them. although i did come across a bunch of kayakers who said they were struggling with only 4 between the 2 of them.
