Fishing Victoria Forum

Good question Sebb - the video showed a tank at least 2m long. Yes they are a tropical species so will not be a problem in Vic or most of NSW - Qld is another matter though.

It was not only interesting but quite alarming to note that NSW Fisheries seized and destroyed a live 90 cm Asian Snakehead recently. This species is causing major problems in parts of the US (and other countries), as those of us that watch fishing shows would have noted. Snakeheads can survive out ...

Yesterday I saw a large Flounder on the sand in about 50 cm of water just near the footbridge. Could be worth a wander around that area at night?

Am out of salmon - mix of pilchard, blue bait and squid - no bites on squid.

Two more trips chasing Gummies in the usual spot. First trip resulted in a solid Gummy about 1.2 m and 3 small ones released. Trip 2 was 4 hours without a bite - not even pickers! The water was fairly dirty, a slow current to the East, with quite a bit of weed. One can but try!!!

Great to see this decision - Lake Dartmouth is the only remaining large breeding population of Maccas. As to the Upper Coliban - well winning Tattslotto would be easier than catching a Macca!

Went back to my (not so secret) spot early this morning and managed two more Gummies slightly smaller than yesterday. I decided to head in before the rays decided to pay me a visit. One on salmon one on bluebait. Beautiful morning and smooth as glass.

Sort of fresh LOL - I bought some from the Coop last day they were open and froze it straight away.

Had a fun trip this morning. Anchored in 12 m just past the pines with a burley bomb down. End result was two decent Gummies retained, a smaller Gummy released, another Gummy lost - and then the rays arrived! Two I fought up to the boat and cut off and two much larger rays broken off when it became ...

Pic of the dirty water below Jemmys Point on an outgoing tide - unfortunately most of the dirty water hangs around just outside the entrance and much of it comes back in when the tide turns. Wednesday was another KGW failure but did manage a decent Flattie at Fraser Is - took a lot of casts though!
