A mate and I use to fish there all the time and always take home big whiting and massive flathead. I have been thinking of going back soon.
Been trying to think of what time if year we use to go as it's been quite a few years since I have been there.

hey its hard tp navigate around the rocks in a boat, i want to launch fish avalon but dont wanna run a groundRogue_Hunter wrote:I think the enquiry about the location came about after reading today's Ray Longs reportFishsniper wrote:Surf casting gear is required and it produces Snapper quite frequently and a good whiting spot, check out Ray Long Tackle's fishing reports.
Alot of people camp there overnight because that's when you get the really big snapper. It's a very comfortable spot to fish just a long walk that's all.
Fresh baits are the go but Pilchards and squid are probably the best and always have a lighter rig with you because it does produce alot of whiting.
Burley always helps and a high tide is always good.
Good luck
I fished Avalong\Geelong 3 times in the last 2 weeks; twice off a boat and one landbased for donuts!!
I have a love-hate relationship with Geelong ... most of the time its hard fishing, but some of my greatest times i have had there.
To many boats kayak, helicopter , catch a fish,catch a fish

Always worth throwing a squid jig land based around here, have caught some nice squid this time of year on the drift in the boat 20 meters from the shoreline. Nothing better than fresh bait for the snapper ( or a bit of a feed).
only problem here is the netters that launch from avalon, have seen them around there most nights, was drifting there last week when one of the cheeky buggers drove right up to the boat and asked how much longer i was going to be, and proceeded to lay the nets 20 meters from the boat!
Great spot though

In resurrecting an old thread, a question for the folks in the know; is the walking track mountain-bikeable? I'm considering killing two hobbies with one stone here...
