Where to find Snapper
Could anyone tell me where I can find some snapper in and around Port Phillip bay? :water:
Re: Where to find Snapper
I can tell you where to get snapper around Port Phillip Bay. In it is much harder - there's too much water everywhere.

You have two options, around Port Phillip, you can try the fish mongers and the vic markets.DontBringBananas wrote:Could anyone tell me where I can find some snapper in and around Port Phillip bay? :water:
In port phillip bay it depends if you are landbased or boat, as snapper are a migratory species, they move around and in and out of the bay. So it you are in the right spot at the right time you have a chance.
Buy the book The Landbased guide for port phillip and corio bays, if you are landbased

Re: Where to find Snapper
I dont fish ppb much....prefer wp..
But its easy in a boat in ppb....just find a group of boats and stop right in the middle of them...that seems to be what happens out there...lol..
But if you put up more details..land or boat and where you launch from would help with better answers ...lol
Carrum wreck always is a good start for me when out there
