Is fishing if the pier any good?
I made a trip to Portarlington on Wednesday 3am through to 8am and was sorely unimpressed. Nary a bite despite using a good quantity of berly, tried drowning pillies, squid and sandworms. All to no success. Shifted three times, both inside and outside the rockwall. I think it will be a while till I make the drive to the west side for a good few weeks.
You should have fished the harbour between the footbridge where it opens up in harbour street much better than the pier.
where's the footbridge. only harbour st i found was at queenscliff
