Targeting squid to 11am-3pm and also bait the mullet, but can you cast near that boat wrack? Any advice for squid such as wind speed and direction tides too or anything?
Thank mate

When it’s rough it’s good for snappers.
On calm nights you can get squid and gars and I’ve caught some nice kgw off that pier as well :P

Jason I asume you have a smart phone so download the vic fishing app and there is a feature that uses your phones gps and tells you if your in a marine park / no fishing area. It might be helpful.
