Any reports on what's biting round Werribee/Altona

Post by LightninLopez » Mon Sep 05, 2016 3:44 pm

G'day all,

Gonna get out there this coming weekend (weather permitting) most likely nice and early. Aiming for Werribee/Altona and anywhere in between. \Any tips on what's been biting? Will be fishing off rocks/the pier (haven't fully decided). Probs gonna go equipped for either lure or bait and make a call on the day. Cheers!

The mozzies are biting hard. Just remember there is a daily kill limit of 1000.

Even the crabs didnt take the bait.
Hopefully soon it all changes.
