Melbourne's Port Phillip and Western Port landbased guide, spots and all!

Post by Sebb » Mon Apr 08, 2019 1:00 pm

For those who are new and just started land based fishing around Melbourne in Port Phillip Bay and Western Port. Or even veterans. Seriously, get these two books!

When I started fishing, I learnt by asking local tackle shops in person and books! These two books I reckon are the best beginners teachers. Easy to follow and straight information.
It tells you where to fish, how to get there, what fish to catch, what month, what bait, gear required, etc.

Seriously, for $9.95 rrp, they are fantastic to have. Years on, I still flick through them.
Rather than just asking random questions in the forum (which you may or may not get and answer), you better off read these books and get the info in a flick.

Have you tried looking?
Try tackle shops or AFN website. Or give them a call.
