Hey Cam,
Tuna is possible, the guy from Busted Fishing has done it, however it was a huge task from reading the logistics involved.

I heard of tuna going into the Portland harbour. I think that anyone who targets them regularly will keep it pretty secret.

I was up there a month ago.

Awesome place, I was hopelessly underpowered to go LBG fishing but it's definitely on the to do list.

Outdoors magazine published and article about land based fishing at the head of Jervis Bay around 1974.

LBG was really big in the 70s and 80s ... many articles were done in mags, I tried a couple of times but it was hard yakka, the guy's that persist with it deserve accolades..
He who has the most fishing rods WINS ! :ts:

Cam I actually have my eyes on a rock ledge I found but it's a solid 4km walk in and out and freaking dangerous to go alone.

So when you free ;) ?
