Been a season to remember from PPB and Westernport. Haven't been able to fish myself but have enjoyed seeing the reports.

Hope the run of these bigger fish continue in the near future. It's unbelievable how many are being caught so close to Melbourne.

Given each female produces 12-15 MILLION eggs a day during breeding its possible even without further tightening the international and regional restrictions. They are mass producers, it's just unknown if each fish breeds annually or if it's only once every few years.

Man I got nfi about tuna science, but if this is the way going forward then I'll have to sell all the bream gear!!!
No more needing to travel to the west is already a massive bonus.
