Fishing Victoria Forum

When metro had stage 3, we were able to fish locally. Closest water to home. If you're questioning it in your head of how far is closest, then you're already wrong. If in doubt, don't. Because you're risking yourself to have an argument with the police and might end up with $1,652 fine. And ofc it's...

The best part of the forum is the search function. I've been a long time lurker. I didn't create an account because there were good quality threads answering every potential question I had. There is so much good timeless information. What's probably missing is more trip reports to keep engagement up...

They'll both catch squid, but one will last a lot longer than the other. EGI rods - If ...

The cheap gear paired with an experience fisherman will catch more fish than an amature with all the fancy stuff but if you can afford the high end stuff it's just more pleasant to use. Sometimes it's just about the bragging rights showing off the newest model and flashing your pride to the other f...

I don't agree with braid and shinny lures. Some people like to fish for other things rather than Whiting and without them you will struggle. I would like to add egi rods to the list though Nothing wrong with egi rods either. I find with the longer rod and specific taper I can make the jigs dance ni...
