hello my name is nathan age 27 from the bass coast area. Very keen fisherman. Have always bait fished but now about to try lure's and soft plastics to hopefully catch some fish. I normally fish tarwin river, inverloch beach/screw creek,powlett river and corinella. Always looking for new places. Look forward to learning some new stuff on here.

Welcome mate! I have been fishing the same area but I am too lazy to use plastics. Carry them all the time with me but somehow I end up setting a bait and just sit and wait. Anderson's inlet is a great place for plastics especially as the flatheads and KGW are slowly coming back. Screw Creek and Maher's landing are great spots if you just use plastics that imitate local baitfish/crustration. Work the sand patches between weeds beds and slowly retrieve and repeat process.

Spending today and tomorrow at the Inlet. Weather is looking promising :thumbsup:

G'day Nathan, great part of Victoria
I love fishing the Tarwin river at Tarwin Lower
Set rods up with bait & sit on the pubs veranda with a cold beer.
Doesn't get any better.

Cheers Gra

And yes tarwin river is a great spot. The platforms are handy. I have done well with mullet and salmon out of tarwin river but yet to get a perch or bream there.
