Hi fellow anglers, my name is Joe and I'm one of the fortunate Melbournians living 5km within docklands area.

I have been casually fishing for about a year or so now. Currently, I have two rods - 7ft travel rod & 10ft surf rod. It's great that i finally found Vic specific online community other tham reddit.

Please consider me a newbie and feel free to reach out to me, any tips around fishing would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all :)

Keep safe & tight lines!

Welcome mate, how does the travel rod hold up to those legendary Dockland's Kingfish?
