A few years back i started putting up deckie spots on here and found some good mates.
I have a few regulars about 6 or so that come out all the time depending on which day it is and some we are good mates and chat off the forum.
I have come accross a few that come out that but heads with for what ever reason and they just dont get a second invite
Once you find some good blokes just keep asking them out and you have a ball lol

Being a beginner , was told any southerly wind is no good fishing at Westernport or tyabb banks? If it is true, at what knot of wind would people avoid going out?
Thanks

Re: Fishing day Sat 10th
Haha, honestly, I love my anchor winch, chopped up to 40 kts the other day and had a 8km trip back home. Was well worth having the kit
