So it's the time of the year where the whiting and kingies fire up and everyone forgets the snapper but I'm still keen to add a couple of the reds to the account. Didn't have much luck earlier on, and keen to make amends. Heard a few reports that there are still a few around.
Where are the best areas to focus on in PPB from now through till easter? Better off heading out wide where the water temp is a bit cooler?
Cheers

Re: Late Season Snapper
2-3 weeks ago I had a couple of attempts out from Frankston at about the 19m-20m line for donoughts. In the last week though multiple reports have come through Mt Martha, Frankston, Morning, Altone and Werribee from 10-20m.
I'd definitely only be anchoring up if I marked them up proper. I'd even consider drifting to cover more ground....

Re: Late Season Snapper
Headed out on Saturday just past the Mussel farm in the yak. Slow going with heaps of small pinkies & small flatties with the odd Banjo & PJ in the mix. The return trip at 18Kt winds was annoying but no problem
Went home with 5 flatties & 1 Pinky. All fish were consumed later with Beer batter & were delicious:-)
