Totally agree with you there.
Had enough of those consistent wet and windy days.
Good to have some decent weather for a change!

Am only new to the area but two blokes at the ramp yesterday (Clifton Springs) were commenting or complaining about a netter. Apparently only one licence left and perhaps this has added to the squid being thinned out? Maybe you local guys can confirm but apparently he has less than a year to go on his licence.

Id love to say that you are right about the netters in the bay Bowl, but unfortunately the one license down the southern end of the bay is getting a hell of a work out and will do so until it ceases in the future. From the outer harbour to down south is being absolutely raped so this will have an effect on fishing for a while

Is this last netter the one that supplies bait in Williamstown?
