Hi Bowl

At present the Lakes system (at least the lakes closer to Lakes Entrance) are dead with no KGW around as yet. The Charter boats are getting reasonable catches of Pinkies and other reef fish offshore. There has been reasonable Bream fishing in the rivers. Hope this helps.

Hi again bowl at present there are no reports of KGW anywhere around Lakes Entrance and with the cold water the Flathead have also been hard to come by. At the ramp cleaning tables yesterday a guy was cleaning a good catch of Bream and large Mullet - reportedly caught on sandworm and spider crab from the shore at the mouth of the Tambo River on the Metung side. He said that he has been catching quite a fish there the past fortnight.

KGWs should turn up later in September. I am almost home from 3 months up north. Just south of Sydney tonight. Lakes Friday. Fishing next calm day after that. Will be a big prospecting day when I do
There's nothing . . . absolutely nothing . . . half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats.
